The Bailey’s Hotel, Located in London’s Kensington, is set to relaunch in the New Year following a £7.5 refurbishment to the property.
The refurbishment of the property, which is set to re-open in January, has seen a total redesign of all guest rooms and public spaces, including a new look for the check-in desk, restaurant and bar.
The hotel said that the new features “bring to life” its Victorian heritage, highlights the personality of its founder Sir James Bailey, and reflects the character of its central Kensington location.
Designs include new-look bathrooms with ‘walk-in’ showers and Victorian-style taps, showers and baths. Meanwhile, the public spaces feature parquet floors, hand-tufted rugs, and a leather-clad reception.
There are also humorous reminders of the hotel’s founder, Bailey, throughout the hotel. He appears in some way in every room, such as a reproduction of a very characterful photograph which shows him with dress coat, waistcoat, Double Albert watch chain and with an impeccably groomed moustache and beard.
