The Montague on the Gardens

Description:

• This member of the deluxe Red Carnation Hotel Group -- others include the Rubens at the Palace and the Milestone -- offers a winning combination of plush accommodations and good service. The location is right across the street from the British Museum and a short walk from the West End and the shopping on Oxford and Bond streets. The public rooms are meticulously decorated in various woods, light fabrics, and antiques, conjuring the atmosphere of an expensive manor home. Guest rooms are individually sized and decorated; most aren't huge, but all are cozy and spotless. Some beds are four-posters, and most sport half-canopies. Bi-level deluxe king rooms feature pullout couches and would be classified as suites in many other hotels.
