Rosewood London

I arrived at Rosewood London in the early evening, after a full day spent exploring the Cotswolds. Despite feeling fatigued, the energy and the buzz in the lobby were contagious and I felt re-energized. The incredibly friendly reception staff greeted my friend and me warmly, checked us in quickly, pointed us in the right direction and we were in our room in just a matter of minutes.

My friend and I were booked in an executive room, which afforded us both an adequate amount of space. The room opened to a small hallway, with the spacious marble bathroom to the right and the bedroom straight ahead. The bathroom boasted a soaking tub and overhead shower.

Two twin beds sat across from the TV and credenza, separated by a nightstand and both flanked by a nightstand and a desk/vanity, offering plenty of space and outlets. Crisp whites, like the bedspreads, and pops of color, such as the red accents near the corner table, accented the dark and light grays of the décor. What stood out the most in the room was the efficient use of space. There was ample seating, as well as more than enough storage, plus two people, our luggage and all the needed in-room amenities, and it still felt like there was space to spare.

Other in-room amenities included complimentary WiFi, a Nespresso machine, Italian linens, a pillow selection, evening turndown, a Geneva sound system and D.R. Harris toiletries.

My one-night stay was far too short. Luckily, it included a delicious dinner at Holborn Dining Room (highly recommended), but not time to enjoy Mirror Room (where breakfast is served), Holborn Delicatessen, Scarfes Bar, GQ Bar Pop-Up, The Lobby or afternoon tea.

The central location of Rosewood London cannot be beat. The Fitness Suite boasts state-of-the-art equipment and on-site personal trainers. Sense, A Rosewood Spa is also on property. Pets are also welcome.
