As part of the IHG Hotels & Resorts family, Kimpton Fitzroy London shares the Kimpton Cares ethos, a promise to put people first, foster inclusivity, and provide exceptional service to every guest, regardless of ability. With thoughtful design and dedicated team training, the hotel ensures that accessibility is not just a feature, but a fundamental principle.
Garreth Walsh, General Manager of Kimpton Fitzroy London said: “True hospitality means creating a space where every guest feels not only welcomed but genuinely valued.
“Joining the Accessible Hospitality Alliance is a natural step in our ongoing commitment to inclusive design, service, and culture. We’re proud to stand with others who share our belief that accessibility should be a standard, not a special request.”
Walsh’s decision to stand alongside Accessible Hospitality Alliance’s purpose, a hospitality world that welcomes everyone, followed a meeting with Charlotte Evans, a member of the Accessible Hospitality Alliance Advisory Board.

“Its retracting staircase is one of, if not the most stylish wheelchair entrance lifts in the city, and a fantastic example of a historic building incorporating innovative design solutions into its elegant architecture.”
Joining the Alliance’s membership scheme signifies more than affiliation, it represents active participation in a collective mission to embed accessibility as a cornerstone of modern hospitality. It’s a statement of intent, care, and leadership.
Welcome and thank you, Kimpton Fitzroy London, a world of hospitality that welcomes everyone just got closer.
