"Housed in a former Ministry of Defence Victorian building near Trafalgar Square, this 21st-century grand hotel balances vast, high-ceilinged public rooms with warm, cozy corners and a contemporary British culinary program. Dining options include a modern British restaurant, an elegant Crystal Moon Lounge with champagne-trolley afternoon tea, and a Velvet lounge by David Collins Studio; chef Tom Kerridge’s first London restaurant at the property offers British-inspired dishes such as a red prawn scotch egg. The 283 rooms and suites feel residential, many with marble bathrooms, built-in TVs, and some private outdoor spaces, while the flagship ESPA Life spa provides 17 treatment rooms, a thermal floor with multiple pools, and a 24/7 gym." - Sandra Ramani, Charu Suri, Katherine LaGrave, Jennifer Flowers, Laura Holt, Laura Dannen Redman
