Science, and magic for the skin! The Skin Lab by Augustinus Bader is the spot for all things beauty. Pop on by for that summer glow treatment, embark on a purifying facial treatment, or treat yourself to their signature BaderGlow rejuvenating journey. 

Austrian dealer Thaddaeus Ropac is probably the most charming man in the art world; number one on any party guestlist. He fended off a members’ club, a fashion label and multiple hedge-funders to bag Dover Street’s Grade-I listed Ely House – a former meeting spot for the suffragettes. And he convinced Julia Peyton-Jones to leave her post at the Serpentine to become the gallery’s global director, now delivering shows from artists such as Antony Gormley and Joseph Beuys.

Within the luxurious Brown's Hotel is Charlie's, a restaurant that would happily become our Sunday Roast staple, or are date-night treat for a sample of their crisp cornish crab salad, or stalwarts venison en croute. With a separate caviar menu, expect great things from the Michelin-starred chef, Adam Byatt who rules this very fine roost. 

London’s oldest luxury hotel is one of the city’s most storied. Winston Churchill, Oscar Wilde and Agatha Christie have all stayed the night in this 11-townhouse-wide property – now papered in a flourish of botanical prints by Olga Polizzi. Downstairs, Charlie’s restaurant dishes up dressed Dorset crab and white asparagus by chef Adam Byatt of Clapham’s adored Trinity. An elegant, exuberant Mayfair stay with all the trimmings.
