The Franklin captures that rarest of qualities: serenity.
Its secluded English gardens are the perfect counterpoint to bustling Knightsbridge.
The hotel combines the warmth of a private home, the impeccable service of a
Grand Hotel and Anouska Hempel’s timeless, Italian-influenced design.
A spectacular hammam and garden-fronting restaurant and champagne bar need
exploring. However, it is The Franklin’s tailored experiences, which are as individual
as its guests, that make it so much more than just another luxury hotel.

Set in the heart of Kensington in central London, just steps from the Victoria and Albert Museum, The Franklin London - Starhotels Collezione offers elegant accommodation with free WiFi access and a Hammam floor. Guests can dine in The Franklin Restaurant by Michelin starred chef Alfredo Russo or enjoy a drink in the bar.

Reopened in 2016 after an extensive refurbishment, the hotel features elegant rooms and suites designed to incorporate classic elements and Italian details. Each room at The Franklin is air conditioned and is fitted with a flat-screen TV, a seating area, a signature bed with premium linens and a pillow menu. The luxury bathrooms come with bathrobes and toiletries.

Further facilities include a 24-hour front desk, concierge services, a techno gym and a spa.

The famous Harrods Department Store can be reached in a 7-minute walk, while the Natural History Museum is less than 10 minutes away. The Royal Albert Hall and Hyde Park are 1 km from The Franklin London - Starhotels Collezione.
