Rosewood London

With its beautiful architecture, fascinating history and cosmopolitan buzz, London really does tick all the boxes. Enjoy everything this wonderful city has to offer with a stay at The Rosewood London; located in an Edwardian Grade II listed building, its grand stonework and stunning facade indicative of what lies within. The hotel is located on High Holborn, one of the capital’s most historic thoroughfares. You’re ideally situated to explore the heart of the city with Covent Garden, the City and the West End on your doorstep. When you’re not out exploring, relax in one of the 262 rooms or 44 suites complete with bespoke furnishings, marble bathrooms and Nespresso coffee machines. The rich history of both the city and the hotel is reflected in its design which marries together a traditional manor house feel with modern British style. Guests enter the hotel through a impressive archway which leads to a grand Edwardian courtyard. The rose bronze gallery links the hotel’s public spaces and the spectacular Renaissance-style marble staircase winds its way through all seven storeys.

The mirror room is a dazzling delight and here you can indulge in the most British of traditions, afternoon tea. One room sure to get you talking is Scarfes Bar; here the walls are covered in the artwork of Gerald Scarfe, acclaimed British artist and political cartoonist for the Sunday Times for 44 years. The terrace, with seasonal planting and lush greenery, is a real oasis of calm and the heated benches mean you can sit and soak up the atmosphere no matter what the weather is doing. The streets of London are just begging to be explored and you have the National Gallery, Charles Dickens museum and the British Museum are just a stone’s throw away and the Tate Modern across the Thames.

London

Shangri-La Hotel

The tallest building in Western Europe, the Shard has earned its place on the London skyline and in the hearts of its inhabitants. The prestigious Shangri-La Hotel is located on the 34th to 52nd floor of Renzo Piano’s iconic landmark, proudly keeping watch over the capital. The views from the hotel are unrivalled and each room features floor-to-ceiling windows looking out across the city and as far as the neighbouring counties of Kent, Surrey and Sussex. The mighty Thames snakes its way across the landscape, tiny red busses trundle across the bridges and trains slink in and out of London Bridge. A pair of binoculars are provided in each room so you can get a close up of life in this fascinating urban patchwork. The hotel features 202 rooms and suites, each one a unique shape thanks to the distinct design of the building. Your luxury retreat features a sleek modern interior, marble and silk furnishings and bathrooms with under-floor heating. The opulent Ting Restaurant with its turquoise and gold colour scheme, offers modern European cuisine with subtle Asian influences. For a slice of daytime decadence, indulge in afternoon tea in the lounge. As evening falls the city looks particularly magical, its cloak of darkness punctuated by a sea of twinkling lights. Guests are advised to head to Gong bar and enjoy a cocktail or a glass of rare vintage champagne. For rest and relaxation there’s a heated infinity pool that overlooks St Paul’s Cathedral, the London Eye and Westminster. Once you’re sufficiently energised, get ready to take to the streets; with London Bridge at the base of the Shard, you’re perfectly situated to explore this great city.

London

The Beaumont Mayfair

Occupying an elegant and imposing art deco building in an exclusive Mayfair neighbourhood, The Beaumont Mayfair brings the intimate feel and personable hospitality of the grandest early twentieth-century hotels right up to the present. 101 guest rooms – including twelve suites and seventeen studios – continue the chic deco theme with vintage artwork, marble bathrooms and state-of-the-art technology. Sat, quite literally, on the hotel’s frontage like a contemplative robot, artist Antony Gormley’s ROOM is both a piece of sculpture and unique suite, described by the artist as ‘a cave, a tomb, a womb or a padded cell’. The Beaumont Mayfair was the vision of renowned London restaurateurs Chris Corbin and Jeremy King of Corbin & King, so dining unsurprisingly takes centre stage. The Colony Grill, the all-day dining centrepiece, offers Anglo-American classics from the early to mid-twentieth century, while there are also three private dining areas. Also on site is the Hamam and Spa, inspired by the Turkish baths at the Royal Automobile Club in Pall Mall and the original New York YMCA, salon and gymnasium.

London

Quintessentially British, Brown’s Hotel is the epitome of 5-star luxury in London. The Mayfair hotel is an icon of the city that has been hosting esteemed guests since 1837. Royals, presidents and world-famous authors have all enjoyed a stay at this illustrious hotel. Blending grand Victorian sophistication with a contemporary feel, its 33 unique luxury suites are grand and spacious while the 82 hotel rooms are eminently comfortable. The rooms are designed by the renowned interior designer Olga Polizzi to ooze both comfort and style. Every room is beautifully appointed, containing unique works or art, artefacts and with elegant pops of colour. For dining, the in-house restaurant Charlie’s is an informal a la carte venue serving an evolution of British cuisine and a menu developed by Michelin-starred chef, Adam Byatt. Meanwhile, the Drawing Room has served afternoon tea and light snacks since the mid-nineteenth century, perfect for that indulgent afternoon. For a special experience, head to the sophisticated Donovan Bar, named after the British photographer Terence Donovan and is lined with over 50 of his black and white prints. To travel in style on your stay in London, all guests are able to use the hotel’s chauffeured Bentley Mulsanne.

London
