KOP Group is expected to open its second Montigo Resorts hotel in the UK later this year.

Named after the iconic British stage actress Dame Ellen Terry, the hotel is located in Kensington. Set across five interconnected Victorian townhouses, Ellen Kensington comprises 105 guestrooms rooms and suites, more than half of which overlook the historic Barkston Gardens.

The interiors feature a juxtaposition of classic English design with subtle Chinoiserie touches, while a number of original features have been carefully restored, including period bannisters, wrought iron gate rails, and the reinstatement of the property’s iconic high ceilings and bay box sash windows.

The F&B offer includes a destination bar and cigar lounge. The Lacquer Room will be a beautiful pan-Asian restaurant with its own orangery and elegant private terrace. Lunch specialties include bento boxes, Asian specialties and light bites, whilst dinner is an immersive affair with Shabu Shabu experiences and countertop dining. An Asian-inspired afternoon tea will be on offer daily, with theatrically plated dishes and whole leaf tea.

Additional facilities include a gym and six Ryokan Spa Suites with Asian-inspired treatments.
