The Levin Rating: 4.0 Pearls

Knightsbridge, London, England

The Bar at Le Metro Restaurant

The Levin was founded by experienced hotelier David Levin. This 12-room hotel is an intimate, family-run affair that offers warm personalized service. For example, there is no big front desk, but instead a beautiful reception room. There are some great special features at the hotel, including a Ralph Lauren honesty bar and a minibar stocked with a variety of champagne in every room. Art deco colors and shapes dominate the decor. In Le Metro Brasserie and beyond, the scene is laid-back and elegant.
