This refreshingly irreverent, yet somehow thoroughly English hotel delivers when it comes to hip London hen celebrations. Cocktails, spa pampering and partying are high on the list here. Positioned in a quiet and secluded setting on the doorstep of the fashionable King’s Road and South Kensington, myhotel Chelsea is a cosmopolitan country house that revels in its distinctiveness. Through the influence of feng shui and cutting-edge design by James Soane of Project Orange, it’s also surprisingly affordable, even though it’s been the location for many a fashion shoot. As an example of how this hotel operates, before guests arrive they are sent a ‘mypreferences form’ so they can tell the hotel staff what they love from the scent in the room to late night viewing. It will be all ready and waiting when they arrive. Hens have a great choice of rooms, including the Thai Suite with its eastern indulgence and luxury. The black stained floor, textured walls, steam room, Jacuzzi and walk-in wardrobe all give it a sexy edge. Guests receive a complimentary 30-minute head, back and shoulders massage when they stay in this suite. Alternatively the Ruby or Scarlett rooms are set behind the cocktail bar and have been designed with decadence in mind. Think polar bear throws and moody lighting.
• Arrive at the bohemian myhotel Chelsea and absorb the cool, cosmopolitan vibe before exploring the stylish boutiques and restaurants of the surrounding area.
• Release your inner burlesque with the help of the Polestars (www.polestars.net). A two-hour private lesson for hens will show you a whole host of spins and sidekicks, guaranteed to give you that ‘je ne sais quoi’.
• Saunter up to jinja, myhotel’s dedicated treatment room for a relaxing facial or back, head and shoulders massage. Whilst one of you is pampered, the rest of your hens can unwind and flick through magazines or enjoy the movie playing on the whitewashed walls of the residents-only conservatory.
• Venture to the hotel’s decadent cocktail bar and sip from a range of delicious elixirs from the Cosmopolitan to the French 75, before heading to one of South Kensington’s fab restaurants and clubs.
• Get all your girls together and indulge in the luxury of your room with a bottle of Rose Champagne and a wickedly tempting chocolate fountain with marshmallows and fresh fruit and watch the complete series of Sex & the City together with more girly movies on hand – guaranteed to make you feel good. Sleepovers were never this much fun…
