Cadogan

Cadogan London Hotel has 65 tastefully decorated rooms and suites and is located on Sloane Street, Knightsbridge, one of Londons most prestigious addresses.

Throughout the hotel, The Cadogan has the feel of a private townhouse where Edwardian Traditional meets Modern English elegance. A luxury lifestyle hotel with an air of discreet distinction and combines every comfort with an atmosphere still typical of the Edwardian era.

The Cadogan was built in 1887. Soon after opening its doors, it became linked with two of the most fascinating personalities of the age, both at the centre of Londons social and artistic life Lillie Langtry and Oscar Wilde.

Lillie Langtry, famous actress and close friend of Edward VII, lived at 21 Pont Street from 1892 to 1897. Long after she had sold the house, Lillie would stay in her old bedroom, by then a part of the hotel.

The Cadogan is perhaps best known for its association with Oscar Wilde who was arrested in room 118 in 1895. This incident at The Cadogan was immortalised by John Betjeman in his poem ",The Arrest of Oscar Wilde at the Cadogan Hotel.",

Today The Cadogan has the feel of a private townhouse steeped with British old-world elegance. The experience is complemented by touches of unexpected modernity, which are subtly woven in to bring this historical building into the 21st Century.
