Be warned: The signature Langham “Blissful Bed” may tempt you to sleep in, so request a wakeup call before lying down.
DK Eyewitness "The Langham was Europe’s first grand hotel when it opened in 1865 and still offers an ultraluxurious experience behind its sprawling Victorian facade."
Star Service "This hotel, once a mediocre Hilton, has improved immensely under Langham's Hong Kong owners, as it should given its bloodlines as London's first purpose-built hotel." Full review
Gayot "Oscar Wilde and Mark Twain were once guests, and it's still one of London's premium five-star hotels."

Frommer's "In North Soho, a short walk from the heartbeat of Soho Square, this town house has been luxuriously converted into a high-end hotel that is London chic at its finest." Full review
Fodor's "Modern flair and the traditional are fused together in this super-stylish Soho retreat, beautifully decorated with unique printed fabrics from designer Kit Kemp." Full review

On Sundays, combine a three-course set meal with a classic film screened in the mini-cinema.
DK Eyewitness "The ground floor bar is always buzzing with local workers as well as guests in this exquisitely designed hotel in a street full of restaurants."
Star Service "Things are casual, including the lobby with its oak floor and leather chairs. Arrivals enter through this sparsely furnished reception room that is more modern-art gallery than lobby." Full review
Gayot "Rooms feature soft pastels, snug duvets and pretty drapes, and all come well-equipped with the latest technology."
Travel + Leisure "Decorated like a chintz-filled country house that Bertie Wooster might share with Anya Hindmarch, this shabby-chic 52-room hotel is filled with art curated by its co-owner." Full review
Zagat "A Bloomsbury Group theme runs throughout this high-end boutique hotel set in a townhouse a block from Soho Square."
