Wilton Place is a street in Knightsbridge, London. It runs north-south between Knightsbridge to the north and Wilton Crescent to the south.

It is home to The Berkeley, a five star hotel,[1] and St Paul's Church, Knightsbridge.

The Berkeley stands on the site of what was Esmeralda's Barn, a nightclub given to Reggie Kray by the infamous landlord Peter Rachman. It was next to a bistro called Joan's Kitchen.

No 8 was home to the actress Lillie Langtry.
