Beautifully decorated rooms hide behind Rosewood’s grand Edwardian façade in London’s central High Holborn area. Entered through a picturesque archway, the hotel opened in the autumn of 2014 after a £85m renovation that brought a new shimmer to the mansion with two destination restaurants, a stunning ballroom and 306 elegantly appointed rooms – including a suite with not only its own entrance, but also its own postcode. The hotel is remarkably quiet, though its clubby bar is hopping seven days a week with guests and locals alike.
