Made in Chelsea: The Cadogan hotel has been given a new lease of life with Belmond on board

The Cadogan hotel has been given a new lease of life, with a £28m overhaul, Belmond on board and a very British restaurant with Frog restaurateur Adam Handling at the helm. Emma Lake and Katherine Price check in

In his third hop across the capital, chef- restaurateur Adam Handling has landed on a historic Chelsea pad that seduced him with tales of illustrious previous occupants and the promise of traditional British elegance.

This ‘pad' just happens to be the much-anticipated Belmond Cadogan in London; sister property to the acclaimed Le Manoir aux Quat'Saisons in Great Milton, Oxfordshire, and the luxury group's second UK hotel, which has just relaunched after a four-year, £28m renovation.
