"Travelers used to the sleek glitz of Manhattan design hotels will feel at home at the Sanderson." Full review
"A noughties makeover by Philippe Starck and Denton Corker Marshall Architects turned the Grade II-listed Sanderson building... into a statement hotel." Full review
"The Sanderson’s witty decor – red lips sofa and a framed portrait that seems to hang in mid-air – is like a surreal stage set."

"With over-the-top interiors designed by Philippe Starck, the property features some pretty extraordinary touches."
"Suka, the new Malaysian restaurant on site, was masterminded by New York’s Zak Pelaccio, and the 300-square-foot guest rooms feel surprisingly large." Full review
"The 91 rooms have Louis XIV-inspired furniture and no internal walls (i.e., the loos are see-through)."
"Philippe Starck designed this luxury West End hotel in his signature contemporary style."
"Liberace meets Philippe Starck in an 18th-century French bordello – and that's just the reception."
