“This adults-only hotel is an exercise in curated maximalism, a showcase for art and a celebration of nightlife, with a daring cocktail menu to match. It's located near Oxford Street, but the cultural attractions inside might prove more compelling than those nearby. For travellers seeking spiritual wellness over traditional spa treatments, and an atmosphere more aligned with theatre than hospitality, this is the place.”
