TWENTY NEVERN SQUARE

Budget West London townhouse with a Euro-Asian flavour.

SET ON A LEAFY Earl's Court square, Twenty Nevern Square is done out in fetching Euro-Asian style. A private home converted into a smart but budget-conscious hotel in west London, it's designed to be easy on the eye.

Bedrooms with polished wood floors, Indonesian furniture and silk cushions have a definite touch of Raffles about them. While rooms are not large, bathrooms are marbled and there's clever use of space, with a wide-screen TV and CD player concealed in the armoire.

Twenty Nevern Square's bigger signature rooms make the perfect big-city escape. The Terrace room is a private sanctuary in teal and rust tones with mahogany sleigh beds and a private terrace for breakfast à deux. The Rococo room revels in excess, while the Pasha suite rustles in acres of silk and boasts its own intimate terrace overlooking the square. Four poster bedrooms blend luxe with a laid-back Orient feel.
