The Halkin (styled as The Halkin by COMO) is a luxury boutique 5-star hotel in London, England. It is located in Belgravia, one of London's most affluent districts, just to the east of Belgrave Square near Grosvenor Crescent. It is operated by the COMO Hotels and Resorts Group. It is considered to be one of the first boutique hotels in London.[1] The Halkin has a Georgian-styled façade of bricks and stone, but its interior and its 41 rooms and suites uses a warm contemporary design.
