The Colonnade is a Town
House Hotel located just on the North West tip of central
London in Maida Vale. This part of Maida Vale is known as Little
Venice because running through its heart is the Regents Canal
which has a
number of permanently moored barges (floating homes) at this
point.
Maida Vale itself is a mix of upmarket houses home to the rich
and famous and a host of bed sit type properties. This is a mainly residential area with some local shops nearby
but within minutes by taxi of some of London's most popular
areas. The King Alfred public house (bar) is just to the rear of
the hotel. These include Regents
Park, Edgware Road, Marble Arch, Hyde Park, Oxford Street,
Bayswater and Queensway. Paddington Station with its direct

Kensington Palace, London Zoo, MCC Museum, Saatchi Gallery,
Serpentine Gallery and The Wallace collection. The hotel is made up of two former Victorian Mansions brought together to form a single building.
