Rooms + Suites

The rooms are all extremely quiet despite being in the center of town.

With 160 guestrooms, including seven signature suites, accommodations been created in a contemporary yet refined style. The rooms are all extremely quiet despite being in the center of town. The bathtubs are solid carrara marble and were carved out inside of the rooms. Fun Fact? The world-wide production of marble was shut down for three months due to the amount of marble blocks needed for this project!

I recommend booking one of their spacious suites. The Junior Suite category starts around 560 sq. ft. and feels more like an apartment than a room. If you really want to be wowed, have your travel advisor book you one of their specialty suites. Or, opt for the Dome Penthouse, complete with an amazing rooftop veranda and impressive views of Piccadilly.
Pool + Gym

Guests have access to the Akasha Holistic Wellbeing Centre.

Guests have access to the Akasha Holistic Wellbeing Centre, an urban retreat spanning over 1,200 sq meters featuring a large indoor lap pool, sauna, steam room, Jacuzzi and gym with state-of-the-art fitness equipment.

Akasha Spa is perfectly serene. From nutrition to meditation, and Reiki to Watsu, you can enjoy expert treatments, therapies and training offered at no other London hotel. The Watsu treatment comes highly recommended. This is a modern hydrotherapy practice that combines muscle stretching, joint mobilization, shiatsu, and massage.

Restaurants

This legendary Regent Street address has long been the capital's hub for fine food, wine and conversation.

This legendary Regent Street address has long been the capital's hub for fine food, wine and conversation. Oscar Wilde chose the Café Royal (perhaps partially for its unmatched wine selection!) as his salon, while Winston Churchill favored Café Royal's steaks and champagne. Even those who differed on most things, came together here to enjoy an atmosphere and range of gourmet pleasures found nowhere else. The story continues today, as celebrated chefs add to the culinary excitement.
  • Vibe
    Cool and comfortable. The building is quite large, and historic but has just the right touch of a modern art deco-type twist.
  • Laurent at Café Royal
    Open all day for breakfast, lunch, dinner and late night cocktails, Laurent offers a fabulous selection for foodies. Be sure to try the popover meal at breakfast! For dinner, opt for sushi. Laurent's Grill & Sushi Bar is led by internationally renowned Chef Laurent Tourondel. Meat lovers will appreciate the finest cuts of steak from the British Isles, the US, Australia and Japan.

Set some time aside to take tea the English way and you'll be assured to feel instantly more elegant!

  • Ziggy's Bar
    This is an excellent cocktail bar complete with inventive drinks and retro decor. The bar is named in honor of the legendary party that David Bowie thew at Café Royal after he retired his dramatic alter ego Ziggy Stardust.
