Sir John Soane's Museum

Ask any Londoner to name their favourite museum in the city and they will probably say Sir John Soane’s. This beautiful house (formerly the residence of one of Britain’s greatest architects) is an extraordinary treasure trove of sculptures, drawings and antiques. One room contains more than 100 mirrors, another is hung with paintings by Hogarth and Turner. It’s also one of the city’s most atmospheric spaces in which to host a dinner party.

Rosewood London

Holborn

checked in

The courtyard alone is a delightful breather from busy High Holborn. And the restored Edwardian mansion is full of surprises inside too, with its gorgeous bronze glow and humbug-striped carpets in the plus-sized bedrooms. For those not staying the night, we highly recommend hitting Scarfes Bar for top-tier cocktails. This hotel has helped bring Holborn

to life again.

L'oscar London

Covent Garden

checked in

Talk about a sensory overload! Jacques Garcia has decorated L'oscar with utter flamboyance, preserving all the quirk and charm that is so often lost in hotel minimalism. From the purple velour sofas to the preserved stained-glass windows of the Baptist Church that it once was, we assure you the marvellousness continues into the bedrooms.

Shrine to the Vine

Bloomsbury

shop

A Bloomsbury wine shop from the brilliant team behind Noble Rot magazine and restaurants. Founders Dan Keeling and Mark Andrew vouch for everything here, which means it’s the best in sustainable wine culture. Plus, there’s a handy UK-wide delivery service too.

NoMad London

Covent Garden

checked in

The newest outpost of this New York favourite is located in the heart of Covent Garden. They bring so many of the thoughtful touches we love in NYC all the way to London.
