At the corner of Sloane Street and Chesham Place, where Belgravia's white stucco terraces give way to a more assertive mid-century commercial grain, a ten-storey building clad in white render and dark-framed glazing presents a facade that owes more to European modernism than to its Georgian neighbours. The Hari London, which opened in 2016 under the ownership of the Hari family's Universal Hotels group, commissioned Anouska Hempel — working under her design alias Lady Weinberg — to craft interiors that channel a distinctly masculine elegance rather than the floral softness that has long dominated Belgravia hospitality. The building's steeply pitched zinc roof, visible from the street, gives the upper floors a sculptural finish that softens its otherwise rectilinear geometry. Inside, Hempel's signature control of atmosphere is everywhere legible — the lobby lounge anchored by floor-to-ceiling bookshelves, a tufted purple velvet sofa set against layered Persian kilims, and a burnished gold ceiling that pitches the light toward amber warmth. Guest rooms, across 85 keys, deploy cowhide rugs, quilted leather ottomans, and dark lacquered headboards flanked by brass-detailed bedside lamps, the palette swinging between deep claret and warm taupe depending on room category. The bar and restaurant, lined in dark lacquered green panels with exposed brick and geometric encaustic tile floors, carries the atmosphere of a well-worn Mayfair members' club rather than a hotel dining room.
