Conrad London, HotelChatter Investigates

Where: Chelsea Harbour, London, United Kingdom, SW10 0XG

A HotelChatter reader asked us to find out what we could about the Conrad Hotel in London.

Here is what we have for you:

This is the kind of place where if you are lucky, you might luck into a Hugh Grant in "Notting Hill" experience, and if you are unlucky an impromptu Kabbalah meeting might break out.  You guessed it; the stars tend to flock here when looking for digs in London.  Why?  Because it is a five star, all suite hotel out in Chelsea away from a lot of the London hub bub.

While the suites may be on the smaller side, guests agree that they are reportedly comfy, people have reported getting a good nights sleep at the Conrad, always a good thing.

We hear the Fulham Broadway tube is the closest tube stop, and is a 10-15 minute walk away from the hotel.

The Conrad is running a couple of "specials" throughout the fall, though with the VAT (17.5%) and the exchange rate, (GBP $157 = $278 USD!!!) That exchange rate is really terrible...come on US Dollar pick up the pace!) your price per night will quickly be over $300.  See why we put "special" in quotes.

So what have we learned?  The Conrad is a five star joint, a bit off the beaten path in London, where you get a suite, a possible view of Chelsea Harbour, but if you are price conscious you better warm up your mouse and search for deals.

Time to start searching Hotwire.com and Priceline for a better Conrad London rate.
