Restaurants

La Trattoria | The Pelham Hotel

The Pelham's eclectic style is also reflected in the restaurant menu, where classic British and Continental dishes are given an innovative twist.

La Trattoria by Alfredo Russo welcomes guests at any time of the day, with a different ambience for every moment. The varied breakfast buffet will appeal to all tastes - eggs prepared in every possible way, pancakes with bacon, berries and maple syrup, duck egg on potato and goat’s cheese rosti, or the Pelham Porridge with organic oats. There’s also a vegetarian cooked breakfast, while a Champagne breakfast with Eggs Royale offers a more indulgent alternative.

For lunch and dinner, Michelin-starred chef Alfredo Russo infuses his dishes with his zestful, inquisitive approach to life. This "new Italian style" presents a highly personal take on traditional Piedmontese and Italian cuisine.

Highlights

We cook traditional, homely and honest italian food

The Chef | The Pelham

Many years' experience and the same wish to experiment and innovate as when, at 13, he was “initiated” into cuisine.

Voted Italy’s Best Young Chef early in his career, Alfredo Russo has realised all his early promise and gone on to open award-winning restaurants in Italy and Dubai, including the highly acclaimed Dolce Stil Novo. A chairman of many cooking congresses, he makes regular appearance on Italian and Israeli television, and has authored a number of books on his distinctive culinary approach. We are delighted to welcome him to The Franklin as our Master Chef.

What to do in London

With so many things to do in London, you can easily tie yourself in knots making a choice. Our Les Clefs d’Or concierges have compiled a list of top things to do in Central London for you to take in the best of what the heart of London has to offer.

Picture of The Royal Opera House

The Royal Opera House

The "magnificent" of Covent Garden 

For opera lovers, visiting the magnificent Royal Opera House in Covent Garden, Central London is a must. The current building is actually the third theatre on the site with both previous theatres destroyed by fire in 1808 and 1856. Originally called the Theatre Royal, it served primarily as a playhouse with the first ballet presented in 1734. The first season of operas began with Handel’s operas and oratorios a year later. The Royal Opera House is home to two of the world’s great artistic companies – The Royal Opera and The Royal Ballet, performing with the Orchestra of the Royal Opera House founded in 1946.

One of the world’s leading opera companies, The Royal Opera is renowned both for its outstanding performances of traditional opera and for commissioning new works by today’s leading opera composers. The audience of Covent Garden has admired the unique voices of Joyce DiDonato, Plácido Domingo, Anna Netrebko, Bryn Terfel, Luciano Pavarotti, Joan Sutherland and many more. To make lyric theatre even closer to the public, The Royal Ballet arranges classes guided by its current and former artists to let you dance at Covent Garden!

Hotel Description

The elegance and energy of a London residence

The dash and excitement of a London townhouse. The welcome and familiarity of a country home. The Pelham brings designer style and home comfort together minutes from Harrods, Sotheby’s and the Royal Albert Hall. There’s a radiant quality to The Pelham. Bright colourful interiors ensure the spirits never dip, while our impeccable service adds a personal dimension to luxury living.

Country home intimacy meets London town house living in The Pelham. Perfectly positioned in the heart of South Kensington for exploring the galleries, museums and other cultural attractions of the Capital, we are also a home from home for those looking for a city retreat.

If our hospitality and service is resolutely old-fashioned, our styling is anything but. Bright, sunny interiors blend the contemporary with the classic, creating a smile in the mind with bright pops of colour on furniture and furnishings. Old Indian and Tibetan fabrics have been framed and hung to create arresting wall-hangings. Meanwhile, signature furniture and artwork, including a striking racing measurement chair in reception, add intrigue.

A discerning design eye has shaped all The Pelham’s public spaces, not least La Trattoria by Alfredo Russo. Here, you can enjoy breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea or dinner – but never in the same way. The experience changes throughout the day. Light and fresh early in the morning, the mood becomes more intimate as evening nears and dinner is by candlelight.

Luxury rooms and Suites in London city center

The Pelham’s 52 bedrooms and suites all have an individual style and design, expressed by a unique mix of antique and modern furniture, paintings and precious fabrics.
The wooden and metal window frames enhance the design of the furnishings, a creative combination of classic and contemporary, while natural light from the floor-to-ceiling windows adds extra radiance to the interiors.
The eclectic design theme is carried through to the furnishings where exuberantly patterned headboards, drapes and upholstery are offset by plain, elegant wallpaper, and vice versa.
