New to our luxury Elysium Collection, One Aldwych is an amalgamation of all the best things that London has to offer. Historic but cosmopolitan, sophisticated but welcoming, chic, creative and located perfectly for exploring the city.
Located in one of the most important Edwardian buildings in London, it dates back to 1905, but today it's the best of modern hospitality. Peppered with artwork from their private collection, and brimming with blooms from their in-house florist, no detail is left unattended. Rooms and suites are spacious and serene, while food and drink is a feast for the senses. Options range from their dairy and gluten-free pioneer, Indigo, to their popular Spanish dining destination Eneko Basque Kitchen & Bar.
Naturally, such an illustrious place deserves an illustrious spa to go with it, and The Health Club at One Aldwych does not disappoint. A subterranean sanctuary, it has a 24-hour gym, an 18-metre chlorine-free swimming pool, a sauna and steam room, and luxury treatments from British skincare brand OSKIA as well as Spanish skincare specialist Natura Bissé.
Set within the luxurious Pan Pacific London, one of the top luxury hotels in the city, SENSORY Wellbeing is a Forbes 4 Star Spa and an urban wellbeing haven.
The hotel has a rich 800-year history and is in a spectacular location near Liverpool Street. Its style embodies the best of old and new, while dining is an all-day experience drawing inspiration from Singapore.
The spa itself invites you into a world of rest and relaxation, complete with a technologically advanced gym, an infinity pool looking out across the city, and a sauna and steam rooms. There are also two treatment rooms where therapists bring holistic practices and biotechnological knowledge together for results-driven therapies.
On the famous Berkeley Street in the heart of London's iconic Mayfair, the 1 Hotel Mayfair brings you luxury hospitality alongside UK-born, holistic, Bamford wellness.
The hotel is five-star all the way, just steps away from Green Park and designed to reduce CO2 emissions, it's brimming with living green walls and more than 1300 plants, trees and shrubs. Rooms and suites are unequivocally chic - you can even hire a sauna blanket and PEMF Mat to optimise wellness. One of the favourite features has to be dining on seasonal, organic fare at the Dovetale restaurant, led by double Michelin-starred Chef Tom Sellers.
As if all that wasn't enough, leisure at the hotel revolves around a 24/7 gym, outdoor fitness classes and encouragement to explore the Royal Parks with one of the hotel's running routes. The Bamford Wellness Spa is the cherry on top, bringing an intrinsic connection with nature and therapies using the brand's natural and organic skincare line.
