Raffles London at The OWO
Once home to spies, signatories and Sir Winston Churchill, the Old War Office has now been transformed into one of London’s most acclaimed landmark hotels, with awards from the likes of the Michelin Guide (three keys), The World’s 50 Best Hotels (#31) and Forbes Travel Guide (it’s one of only 70 hotels in the world to receive five stars). Britain’s extraordinary heritage meets its match in Raffles’ legendary service: with just 120 rooms and suites, the hotel holds an aura of exclusivity and elegance that sets it apart from London’s typical luxury hotels.
Return from days spent exploring Buckingham Palace, Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament – all within walking distance – to some of the city’s finest dining. Celebrated chef Mauro Colagreco helms the discreet dining room of the same name, with one Michelin star and a menu devoted to the country’s cornucopia of produce; at The Drawing Room, views over Whitehall are paired with an espionage-themed afternoon tea experience that’s equal parts covert intrigue and quintessential British indulgence.
