Blakes was created out of two Victorian mansions in South Kensington by Anouska Hempel, the London hotelier and internationally renowned designer.
Blakes is now established as totally unique, the model for the fashionable small hotel in London and cities around the world.Blakes is a personal statement about what design can achieve. Each of the 50 bedrooms has been designed by Anouska Hempel, every detail reconstructed to provide the ideal blend of colour, texture and atmosphere.The colour schemes are daring, stunning and dramatic, all designed with a vibrant spirit, the passion for travel and life as it should be, romantic and thought provoking. Black and mustard, rich cardinal reds, lavender, vanilla, washes of tea rose and a room that is white on white on white on white, offering style and elegance to the discerning traveller. In the business of making dreams a reality, unable to accept the ordinary Anouska Hempel is creating a world of excellence one room at a time.To the international businessman or woman it is convenience and efficiency, private faxes and telephone with voice mail facilities, satellite channels, video, hi-fi system, safe and all the other high-tech paraphernalia for modern living.Respected for protecting the privacy of its clients against the paparazzi, its the London base of film stars, musicians and all the top designers earning the reputation as the couture hotel.Blakes restaurant has an unrivalled reputation for the originality and contents of its superb menu. The cuisine, devised by Anouska Hempel, is a skilful blend of East and West, together with imaginative dishes of her own, all elegantly presented to look as good as they taste.A carefully chosen wine list, friendly staff and professional service make it a must for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The bar is popular, lively and full of character. In the Chinese room delve into piles and piles of coffee table books on a myriad of subjects, having a drink of coffee can be highly amusing, away from the hustle and bustle.
