In the know
- Our favourite rooms
- Each room has its own palette of hues and patterns; we loved blue and brown Room 2, although it’s on the ground floor, which isn’t the quietest. Large corner rooms 111, 211 and 311 on the floors above have the same colour scheme. Deluxe doubles facing the courtyard are romantic. For wonderful views of London’s rooftops, get one of the smaller top-floor rooms; 402 has low-slung windows, giving it a first-class Haymarket vista. Junior Suite 100 has outdoor decking.
- Packing tips
- Bikinis or swimming trunks, so you can have a morning swim or afternoon dip in that gorgeous pool. An A–Z to help you navigate London's streets.
