Firmdale Hotels

Firmdale Partner

Nine hotels in London and New York, all of them decorated by one person who never learned to be afraid of a pattern.

  • Daily breakfast for two, served as a buffet, a la carte or in the room depending on the hotel.
  • A hotel credit for incidentals during your stay. The amount varies by property.
  • A personalised welcome amenity from the hotel management.
  • Priority for early check-in and late check-out.

For incidentals, varying by property.

Kit Kemp designs every Firmdale interior, and the result is the opposite of the beige international luxury standard: headboards in hand blocked linen, a mannequin in the stairwell, forty different fabrics in one drawing room, and somehow none of it tips over. Tim and Kit Kemp built the group property by property from 1985 onward and still own it, which is why the hotels feel like a house rather than an asset class.

They are also genuinely good hotels underneath the pattern. The Soho and the Ham Yard have proper screening rooms, the beds are excellent, and the drawing rooms are the rare hotel space guests actually sit in.

These benefits come from the partner programmes this practice belongs to, and they are added to your reservation when we make the booking. They cost you nothing: the rate you pay is the rate you would find yourself. What varies is the property, because each programme sets its own terms and a few of them set them hotel by hotel.
