The hype
Travelers obsess over the courtyard entrance and the staff's tweed uniforms, but often find the in-room lighting too dim.
Rosewood London
$700-1200+/ νύχτα
Κρατήστε αυτό αν You want the grandeur of a Downton Abbey estate dropped into the center of London, with a side of world-class gin.
Γιατί Το Αγαπούν
- The 'Pie Room' — yes, a dedicated room for savory pastry
- Scarfes Bar is a legitimate destination, not just a hotel lobby
- The Edwardian courtyard entrance makes you feel like royalty every time you arrive
Γρήγορη Ματιά: It’s a theatrical, grand-dame experience that mostly delivers, provided you don't get stuck in a dark, lower-floor room facing the street.
Αξιολόγηση από @matt.my.life: I turned my Shania Twain concert trip into a full luxury weekend at the Rosewood. From the insane cocktails at Scarfes Bar to the massive suite, it was the perfect mix of party and pampering. If you're coming to London for a show, this is the place to stay.

- You want a 'grand entrance' experience every time you return

Συχνές ερωτήσεις & Κρυμμένες συμβουλές
Όλα όσα πραγματικά θέλεις να ξέρεις πριν κάνεις κράτηση.
Is there a pool?
No. There is a spa (Sense Spa) and a gym, but no swimming pool.
Is it pet friendly?
Yes, extremely. Pets stay free and get beds, bowls, and treats. 'Pearl' the golden retriever is the resident mascot.
How much is breakfast?
Expect to pay around £32-£35 per person for the full English experience in the Holborn Dining Room.
Is the location good for tourists?
Yes. It's 'Midtown' — walking distance to Covent Garden (10 min) and the British Museum (5 min).
What is the 'Pie Room'?
It's a dedicated kitchen room within the restaurant that makes hundreds of pies daily. You can book it for private dining at night.
Is there a resort fee?
Not a 'resort fee', but a '5% discretionary service charge' is added to accommodation bills. It is optional but requires effort to remove.

5 πράγματα που πρέπει να ξέρετε πριν φύγετε
💡The 'discretionary' 5% service charge on your room rate is essentially a hidden tax.
💡Some 'Deluxe' suites have poor storage layouts that make unpacking a suitcase frustrating.
💡The shower/tub combo in some bathrooms can be slippery and flood the floor.
💡The courtyard is open to the public during the day, so it's not as private as it looks.
💡You can hear the tube rumbling faintly in the basement spa treatment rooms.
