How we choose the most romantic hotels in London
Every hotel on this list has been selected independently by our editors and written by a Condé Nast Traveller journalist who knows the destination and has stayed at that property. When choosing hotels, our editors consider both luxury properties and boutique and lesser-known boltholes that offer an authentic and insider experience of a destination. We’re always looking for beautiful design, a great location and warm service – as well as serious sustainability credentials. We update this list regularly as new hotels open and existing ones evolve.

John AthimaritishotelRaffles London at The OWO
The most talked-about hotel to have opened in London this century faces off the mounted cavalry troopers of The King’s Life Guard with reborn aplomb. From 1906 to 1964, this was the War Office, where Winston Churchill boomed out briefings to staff on the wraparound Grand Staircase while secretary of state for war; where D-Day was planned; and where the spies had their own entrance. In 2016, the Empire struck back when the lease was purchased by the Mumbai-founded Hinduja Group, which sank £1.5 billion into the building and brought Raffles on board. It took seven years and an 80-foot excavation to create the 120 rooms and suites, nine restaurants, three bars, 20-metre pool and 27,000-square-foot Guerlain spa by design firm Goddard Littlefair (Gleneagles, Villa Copenhagen). Grand state offices have become plum suites, including The Haldane in smart red damask, once Churchill’s office. OWO’s interiors impresario, Thierry Despont, sadly died last summer before the final unveiling, but he conceived its look of regal masculinity wrapped in a palette of blazing red, which references the Household Cavalry. Three of the restaurants are by Argentine chef Mauro Colagreco, including a fine-dining spot, a private-table option and Saison, the all-day space. Best for boozing and schmoozing is the Guards Bar, which heaves with gossipy politicians and media types; and the tiny Spy Bar, occupying an old interrogation room in the basement, is a good evening bookender with its red velvet banquettes and half of the car from No Time to Die on the wall. From £1,100. Lydia Bell
hotelThe Emory, Knightsbridge
Looking across from Hyde Park, The Emory is a glassy box with protruding steel outriggers, somewhere between nautical and industrial. No red brick or Portland stone here, among so many other stalwart London hotels. The entrance to this one, down the Old Barracks Yard side street, is barely marked. Reception is just a little glass box, which most guests will arrive at in a virtually silent electric BMW i7. This is the latest offering from Maybourne, behind Claridge’s, The Connaught and The Berkeley next door. It’s remarkable for being London’s first all-suite hotel, and a departure of sorts for a group known mostly for heritage grandiosity.
But The Emory is most notable as one of the last projects of the late Pompidou architect Richard Rogers, who came up with the plan almost two decades ago with former Maybourne head Paddy McKillen. Six renowned interior designers were involved, with public spaces by superyacht designer Rémi Tessier. Four designers were given two floors each – André Fu (Claridge’s Spa), Pierre Yves Rochon (The Savoy), Champalimaud Design studio (Raffles Singapore) and Patricia Urquiola (Six Senses Rome) – while the 300sqm penthouse is by London-based Rigby & Rigby. The Emory isn’t messing about, but it’s not shouty either. The word everyone uses is “discretion”, with guests able to rent out whole floors – something Louis Vuitton has already done for its top brass. One of the other main talking points is the longevity-focused Surrenne holistic spa, where guests and members have access to nutrition programmes by model-turned-nutritionist Rose Ferguson and skincare products and treatments by New York’s favourite plastic surgeon, Dr Lara Devgan, while trainers at the futuristic gym can go deep on biohacking or the function of the vagus nerve.

hotelThe Berkeley, Mayfair
Part of the Maybourne Group, which also manages Claridge's and The Connaught, The Berkeley is a bit like both but not much like either. A child of the early 1970s, there are no heritage trappings; instead, the look is cool, low-key, non-specifically modern. Soothe your aching muscles and achieve a state of serenity at the Blue Bar, or at the health club, home to one of the best spas in London. The views over Hyde Park are excellent; the rooftop pool is itself as pretty as a picture, though too small to be of much use to anyone who actually wants to swim. By way of compensation, there is Andre Fu's 278-square-metre Opus Suite – a spectacular space boasting more impressive vistas.
Milo Brownhotel1 Hotel Mayfair
This nine-storey hotel is a sustainable sanctuary slotting naturally among London’s oldest hospitality icons just across the road from The Ritz and The Wolseley. Inside, you are greeted by a giant suspended plant chandelier, a reception desk hewn from the trunk of a giant oak tree in a Sussex forest and a wall of Yorkshire stone, tactfully slotted together with no additional materials by a father and son carpentry stonemason duo. It’s an unexpectedly soothing space amid London’s busiest shopping district; inside, the noise of Piccadilly fades away, absorbed by thousands of plants (1,300 to be exact – including 200 local and regional species) and raw materials sprinkled throughout the hotel. The reception’s tranquil aesthetic extends into each of the 181 bedrooms. Sandy hues and creamy tones come in the form of linen-covered cushions, soft furnishings and oak flooring, and each room has a living moss wall, further emphasising the hotel’s dedication to bringing the outdoors inside. Downstairs the hotel also has is a cafe and co-working space by day which transforms into a wine bar by night, as well as an elegant, low-lit cocktail bar area leading on to London’s most talked-about new restaurant, Dovetale.
hotelBeaverbrook Townhouse
A smart offshoot of the Surrey Hills original, this property has taken over a pair of restored Georgian townhouses in a prime position near Sloane Square. It feels like a joyous and timely celebration of the capital – especially on the stairs where an extraordinary collection of artwork has been cherry-picked by creative director and advertising legend Frank Lowe: old posters for the Boat Race, Brooks’ Peckham Brewery and Kew Gardens. Just as bedrooms in the country mansion pay homage to former owner Lord Beaverbrook’s friends and guests, here each one is named after a London theatre, with framed programmes of past productions and books on opera and Laurence Olivier. Interior designer Nicola Harding, who previously worked on the estate’s Garden House, has used a bolder, more playful palette for this spin-off, lending it a grown-up urban edge. Four-posters and fringed velvet sofas sit alongside antique desks, patterned lampshades and cushions made from vintage fabrics by Penny Worrall; bathrooms are equally colourful, with glassy tiles in rich apple green and bottle blue. On the ground floor, a Japanese apothecary cabinet at the entrance of the arsenic-hued, Art Deco-detailed bar marks a shift to the East. The best spot in the Fuji Grill restaurant, helmed by ex-Dinings SW3 chef Alex Del, is at the counter, where a sensational 20-course omakase supper is prepared, combining traditional techniques with modern European elements for dishes that might include tuna dry aged in house and hamachi sashimi with smoked aubergine. This standout addition to the area – where the Cadogan reopened under Belmond in 2019 and Hotel Costes is slated for late 2022 – is part of a new chapter for Chelsea. Emma Love

Shangri-La Hotel At The Shard, London Bridge
There’s a sensation of being separated from the real world at the Shangri-La Hotel At The Shard, rather like floating in space. Up the top you can sip champagne over afternoon tea, dine above the clouds at Aqua Shard, one of London's most romantic restaurants, or stay a little longer at Shangri-La Hotel.

hotelThe Biltmore
Right in the heart of swanky Mayfair, this handsome red-brick hotel spreads almost entirely along one side of Grosvenor Square and is hemmed in by some of London’s best restaurants and finest hotels (Claridge’s, The Beaumont and The Connaught form a sort of invisible golden triangle around its perimeter, while a new Rosewood is set to open in 2025, cementing the spot as a hotbed for hospitality). While historic curbside appeal remains intact, inside The Biltmore opens to an even more glamorous world, with shimmering chandeliers and a bright-white marble lobby setting the tone for an indulgent stay.
