Interior design Kit Kemp
Here, one finds bats signed by famous cricketers, including Sir Gary Sobers, miniature cricket balls used as door handles on the wardrobes, and 192 ceramic cups designed by artist Martha Freud, each decorated with cricketing phrases. Kemp also infuses Dorset Square Hotel with an exciting mix of bespoke elements, such as luscious new fabrics from her exclusive collection with Christopher Farr and handwoven carpets from Argentina. A sumptuous Drawing Room invites guests to gather on plush sofas or to lounge solo with a good book.
Architecture A Regency gem
Housed in two combined Regency townhouses, the hotel has been updated with Kit Kemp’s fresh contemporary English point of view. Inside, 38 bedrooms adorned with items from Kemp’s global travels span five floors, many of them overlooking tranquil private gardens.

Design & Architecture
Green is the color of life, hope, energy, and nature, so I often use it to breathe fresh air into a room. In the Terrace Suite at Ham Yard Hotel, Natasha Hulse has intricately appliquéd one of our signature headboards with an elaborate floral design. The three-dimensional quality of her work gives the room depth and breaks the boundary between indoors and outdoors.
The Potting Shed Restaurant and bar
Enjoy a seasonal brasserie-style menu
The restaurant's stylish cuisine presents a bit of Old World Europe, with tasty surprises: Think roast scallops with garlic and parsley butter, herb breadcrumbs, Autumn pumpkin, and sage risotto. In the bar, you can sip on cocktails at the daily Aperitivo Hour, from 5pm to 8pm.
This year is an exciting year for art. Look no further than our collection of the most exceptional, can’t-miss exhibitions in Europe.
From Picasso’s late works to Vaginal Davis’s activism and Ayoung Kim’s futuristic visions, these shows will inspire and provoke.
A global, city-by-city guide to the must-see art exhibitions, biennials, and museum shows worth planning a trip around.
Whimsical, eclectic, and always hard to pin down, Kit Kemp has much in common with the hotel interiors she’s spent a career fashioning into stand-alone pieces of individual expression. Like her, they are anything but static.
