London. It is one of London's most attractive areas and it's
flagship store, the unique Harrods, and a host of renowned couture
houses all give the area an elegant exclusivity that is second to

is itself one of London's major tourist attractions employing over
3000 staff.Harvey Nichols is a chic alternative just along the road from
Harrods - a brilliant place to buy quality designer wear and a huge

brands have their large, stylish London shops - Christian Dior,
Chanel, Prada, Gucci, Aramani to name but a few. Quality serviced
apartments and 5* luxury hotels abound in Knightsbridge and there
are lots of brilliant top quality international restaurants where
you can dine in style. Some are Michelin starred and offer an
excellent selection of carefully prepared fare featuring cuisines
from around the globe.Knightsbridge is the most fascinating place for people watching
and a fabulous place to watch top of the range sports cars as they
growl through the hustle and bustle of shoppers and traffic at
surprisingly low speeds!Knightsbridge is also good for traditional English pubs and
quality restaurants, namely Osteria Romana, Dinner by Heston
Blumenthal, The Rosebery at Mandarin Oriental, Ognisko Restaurant,
Outlaw's At The Capital, Rivea London, Patara Thai Cuisine, the
Zuma Bar, Bulgari Hotel Bar, the Rib Room Bar and Restaurant, The

Piccadilly line) which is right beside Harrods (accessible by a
pedestrian tunnel) and the underground station at Hyde Park Corner
is just 7 minutes' walk away. The nearest railway station is
Victoria. If you are driving to London, you will be pleased to note
that NCP car parking is available at Knightsbridge Green and

then we suggest you consider the Belgravia area, where we offer the
excellent
