Introduction: The Rembrandt Hotel London is located right in the heart of
London. Actually straddling the border between South Kensington and Knightsbridge, two
of London's more upmarket and exclusive areas both in terms of amenities and to
live. Perhaps best known locally for its fashion boutiques and internationally
for the famous Harrods department store. The surrounding area provides many
places of interest with the likes of the Victoria and Albert Museum (0.1 miles),
Brompton Oratory (0.1 miles), Science Museum (0.1 mile) and Natural
History Museum (0.2 miles) all within strolling distance. Less than half a
mile to the north you will find Hyde Park. A large area of open space with a
central lake (Serpentine) where you can hire boats in summer. There's also a
gallery within the park along with a number of famous sculptures and statues and
areas of landscaped gardens. For some fine nightlife try the Kings Road Chelsea
half a mile to the south or travel into the heart of the West End, just
over a mile and a half to the east around Piccadilly Circus. The nearby
Gloucester Road tube station provides a link to Heathrow Airport via the
Piccadilly Line. 1.3 miles to the east is the major attraction of Buckingham
Palace, home to the British Monarchy and surrounded by Green park and St James's
Park.
