The DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel London – Chelsea is a modern four-star hotel near Chelsea Harbour. Although it is not the most centrally located hotel, staying here means that you can travel into central London by riverboat.
The hotel has 172 air-conditioned guest rooms, which all have comfortable beds, a work desk, a flatscreen television, ironing facilities, a small fridge, tea and coffee making facilities and en suite bathrooms.
The hotel’s suites are considerably larger with separate living and sleeping areas.
The hotel’s dining options include the Grill, which has a classic dinner menu plus the more casual Coffee Lounge and Bar.
Despite being a modern hotel, some guests find that the decor is a little dated; however, this is often the case with American chain hotels.
Free Wi-Fi wireless internet access is available throughout the hotel.
The hotel is located in Chelsea Harbour (also known as Imperial Wharf), which is a densely populated residential neighbourhood characterised by modern blocks of flats and a lovely riverside footpath. Although the immediate vicinity around the hotel is not particularly charming, it is only a short walk to Chelsea or Fulham, which are both lovely established residential neighbourhoods with delightful local shopping streets.
It is a pleasant 15-minute walk to Fulham Broadway tube station and it is a 20-minute walk to the western end of Kings Road in Chelsea, although it will take you 45 minutes to walk all the way up Kings Road to Sloane Square.
Nearby points of interest include Stamford Bridge stadium, the Chelsea Physic Garden and the National Army Museum, which are all within a half-hour walk from the hotel.
It is only a one-minute walk to Imperial Wharf station, which has around five Overground train services running every hour in each direction. However, these trains don’t run directly into central London so you’ll need to either change for the District line at West Brompton (one stop north from Imperial Wharf) or change for a train to London Waterloo at Clapham Junction (one station south from Imperial Wharf).
The riverboat is a more pleasant, and more expensive, transport option into central London. From the hotel, it is only a five-minute walk to Chelsea Harbour Pier, which has ferries departing every half hour with a 28-minute journey time to Embankment Pier and a 35-minute journey time to Blackfriars Pier.
On-site car parking is available but it costs £25 per day.
