OUR SAY
Ten-room townhouse charm with art-filled rooms and a proper cocktail bar downstairs. It suits design-literate travellers who want their hotel to feel like part of the neighbourhood, not an escape from it.
We chose this hotel because it nails the sweet spot between proper hospitality and that lived-in, creative London feel. The rooms have character, the downstairs space has a pulse, and the whole thing feels personal in a way big hotels rarely manage.

Tell Me More About This Hotel
Artist Residence London is a 4-star hotel located in London, England
This little Pimlico townhouse has the intimacy of a private home, just with better bedding and a more interesting drinks cabinet. With only a handful of rooms, each one leans into its own personality: vintage pieces, art on the walls, and small details that make the place feel collected rather than designed. Downstairs, the Cambridge Street Kitchen keeps the energy up with an all-day restaurant and cocktail bar that locals actually use, giving the hotel a pleasing hum without it ever feeling like a party hotel. Come for the atmosphere and the food, stay for the feeling that London is happening right outside, but your room is genuinely yours. The cocktail bar runs late by townhouse standards, so you can end the day downstairs, then disappear upstairs without crossing the city.

Have dinner downstairs, then stay put for a last cocktail and take the stairs up slowly, it’s the full townhouse experience.
Hotel Location
Pimlico is calm and leafy, close to Victoria Station and a straightforward hop to Westminster and the river. It’s central enough for sightseeing, but removed from the busiest crowds.
How Close Are Restarants?
You can walk to plenty of good options around Victoria and Belgravia, but the immediate Pimlico streets are quieter and more residential.
What Is Nearby to Artist Residence London?
Getting there: You’re five minutes from Victoria. From Gatwick, train to Victoria then walk. From Heathrow, Elizabeth line to Paddington then Circle line to Victoria works, or take a taxi if you’re arriving late and want door-to-door. Getting around: Victoria makes theatre nights, museums and day trips easy, while Pimlico’s streets are made for low-key wandering. It’s a good base if you like starting early and keeping the day flexible. Nearby sights: Buckingham Palace and Westminster are close, the West End is simple for shows, and you can dip into Belgravia for a quieter, good-looking London walk.
