Hotel Opening: The Franklin Hotel is Knocking on Harrod's Door

While The Franklin is not set to open until December 1st 2007, it is bookable now.

The hotel is situated right next to Harrods, smack dab in the middle of Knightsbridge. The nearest underground station is South Kensington, which is about five minutes away by foot.

There will be four-poster beds and Italian linens in this Victorian townhouse conversion. WiFi, iPod connections and flat screen televisions are also being promised. While this may or may not sound like your bag baby, you can't argue with the opening rate being offered. We found rooms in early January 2008 for GBP 246.75, but they will no doubt go fast. Though the hotel does not appear to be taking reservations for the Holiday season, at least online, we bet a well timed phone call could get you in as a beta tester during late December.
