Bespoke artwork collection across the residence

In celebration of the re-opening, it has commissioned bespoke artwork to feature across the residence. All artwork featured on the ground floor will be original pieces, which will form a private gallery and include a combination of painting and metal pieces. A number of the pieces will depict the heritage of the area, such as a spectacular creation of T.S. Eliot, who served as a churchwarden at St Stephen’s Church on Gloucester Road.Appeal for business users and those starting an international assignment Cheval Gloucester Park shares the same ethos and level of service rarely enjoyed outside the world’s finest hotels, offering a 24 hour concierge service to support any guests’ needs - from making personal travel arrangements and taking care of laundry to organising a chef to come in and cook in the apartments’ fully equipped kitchen - to weekly maid service and linen and towel change.
