The Portobello Hotel, Notting Hill
Just when I thought The Portobello Hotel couldn't get any better, my second visit to this gorgeous, boutique hotel certainly topped my last. I was kindly invited back (ad. pr visit) to discover the recently renovated room 38. This warm, inviting room was the perfect way to enter the autumnal months - let me show you around...
The Curious Hotels Group certainly know how to do hotel design. A trip to Paris earlier this year saw me staying in the stunning "Reine Hortense" room at L'Hotel (another of their incredible properties) and each stay has been as memorable as the last. Room 38 at The Portobello Hotel is lined with a fun, woodland style wallpaper that works seamlessly with the soft, cosy furnishings and warm, eclectic lamps. The modern, soft-glam bathroom is decked out with Green and Spring products and adorned with Japanese cherry blossom.
The sweetest touch to my stay, however, has to be the complimentary hot cocoa that was presented to the room in the early evening; taking the cosy vibes up a thousand notches! I enjoyed this with my partner whilst snuggling up to watch a movie on the sofa.
Like with all the other Curious Hotel properties, breakfast can be served in the guest's dining area downstairs or up in the room. I prefer my croissant and coffee in bed to soak in the final few hours of bliss. The continental breakfast is included, with fresh hot items available to choose from at an additional cost.
We woke up to a view of Notting Hill that changes with the seasons. On this rainy day in October, we were greeted by orange treetops and a delicate morning sun, that streamed onto the crisp white sheets, illuminating our breakfast in bed. There was something extremely tranquil about this room that filtered slowly into my morning and carried on into my day. 
Thank you to the lovely team at The Portobello hotel for such a wonderful stay yet again. Make sure you bookmark this idyllic hotel for your next London stay!
