"The hotel is dark, starting from its wood paneling and carpets, however it adds to the risqué ambiance it exudes."

Highlights
Location: Near Covent Garden and Theatreland
Dining: Afternoon Tea with champagne options
Rooms: 39 uniquely designed spaces
Meetings: The Committee Room for private events
Design: Jacques Garcia's theatrical influence
“L'Oscar London stands out for its commitment to personalized service, from the readily available concierge to the attentive responsiveness of the staff; the design evokes Parisian theatrical flair, extending from the illuminated Onyx bar to the unique Afternoon Tea served in a historic chapel.
Its location near Holborn underground places guests steps away from London's cultural heart, including the Royal Opera House and British Museum, making it a distinctive choice for those who appreciate detail.”
