The Laslett

The Story

The Laslett, set across five Victorian mansions next to Notting Hill tube, is so committed to the spirit of the neighbourhood it even takes its name from the community activist and organiser of the original Notting Hill Carnival, Rhaune Laslett. The Laslett is an unfinished story – a collection of concepts, ambitions and creative collaborations that have come together to bring the Living Rooms philosophy to life. A place for locals to love and guests to discover, The Laslett is just one part of the ongoing narrative that winds its way through the art, culture and community spirit of Notting Hill.

The Artwork

Ben Kelway is the creative consultant that led the immense task of curating the artwork that would give the hotel its unique character. As part of its tribute to British fashion, The Laslett features artwork from Biba founder Barbara Hulanicki, including her signature prints, as a nod to her pioneering role in fashion history. A sophisticated palette of dove-grey, dark-teal and cream is punctuated with intriguing elements like the double-fronted cabinet to the left of reception, which is stuffed with curiosities from local antiques dealership Les Couilles du Chien that are also available to purchase.
