The Dorchester

A hotel that needs little introduction. Since opening in 1931, it’s had its own TV docu-series, hosted the Foyles Literary Luncheons as well as the inaugural Pride of Britain Awards and was declared to be one of the safest buildings in the city, during the WWII bombings. Stars such as Barbra Streisand, Edith Sitwell and Alfred Hitchcock have dined here. The Dorchester has five restaurants in total, The Grill, The Spatisserie, The Promenade, China Tang and Alain Ducasse – the latter being one of the few eateries to hold three Michelin stars. And its famed two-course silver-service afternoon tea is unmissable (the hotel went as far as creating its own Dorchester Blend cuppa). Its opulent spa is another highlight, as are the amazing displays by florist-in-residence Philip Hammond.

COMO Metropolitan London

This hotel first opened in 1997, bringing the brand’s Nobu Japanese-Peruvian dining experience, popular with the A-list, to London. Rooms here are all about space and light. The Como Metropolitan is clutter-free and deeply calming, contrasting the bustle of the streets below. Everything is activated via the touch of the button – from climate control to the smart media system, lit rainfall showers and the thick silk blackout drapes. This serene ambience extends into The Como Shambhala spa, renowned the world over for its acupuncture and shiatsu. Alongside more traditional treatments, top visiting therapists also offer osteopathy and energy healing.

Nobu Hotel London Shoreditch

A striking, almost Brutalist exterior welcomes those arriving at the Japanese hotel group’s East London home. The Asian influence is strong in the minimal and at times futuristic, Tokyo-like decor, that’s mixed with contemporary European style. Below ground is the restaurant, club, access to a garden, sushi and whisky bars, where the DJs play cool beats – this is certainly a place to be seen. And while rocking a grown-up feel, Nobu is welcoming to kids, providing them with a gift pack on arrival. Guests can also spend time in the hotel’s Pilates studio, relaxing in the treatment rooms and breaking a sweat in the Technogym.
