It is named after London’s most exclusive district, which became a playground for affluent aristocrats in the 17th Century and is currently home to luxury hotels, elegant bars, elite clubs and restaurants, including the first Gordon Ramsay Bar & Grill. Celebrating its namesake, this chic private room is a haven for eight guests to unwind in style and savour sublime culinary experiences, with refined leather armchairs, floor-to-ceiling windows and even a direct path to a magnificent wine cellar.
10 Soho
Reflects the upbeat ambience of London’s Soho district, which was originally a fashionable district for the city’s upper-class and has transformed into a vibrant entertainment district. Diverse, fun-loving and always buzzing, Soho is the UK capital’s beating pulse with glittering bars and trendy restaurants, just moments from the famous theatres of the West End. With its social red leather sofas, 10 Soho is a show-stopping private room that can welcome ten diners for fine cuisine and cool cocktails.
12 Chelsea
