Anglo-French relations got a little complicated this morning.

The bacon bap faced off against the croissant in our very own Battle of Tastings, celebrating the arrival of the Bayeux Tapestry and our partnership with the .

We gave England another chance. France won, again.

C’est la vie.

Not a single croissant crumb survived.

The itinerary was looking very cultured: a wander around the Piazza, a bit of theatre, a gallery stop and some very serious window shopping.

Naturally, the window shopping didn’t stay theoretical.

By the time you make it back to the Lobby Bar, there’s only one thing left to do: order a cocktail and discuss the day’s discoveries.

Research, obviously🍸

If September were a scene in a play, we imagine it would look something like this.

The summer curtain is slowly coming down, and a new season is waiting in the wings. We’ll be spending ours over long lunches, late cocktails and plenty of time in the Lobby.

Hello, September. Take your seat.

Une soirée à la Renoir.

An afternoon of Impressionism at the National Gallery, followed by cocktails at One Aldwych as Covent Garden slips into evening.

With 40 paintings to discover, including Bal au Moulin de la Galette, on display in the UK for the first time, there’s plenty to linger over.

Then comes lunch, drinks, a night for two and breakfast the next morning.

Pas mal.

Act I: They meet.
Act II: They fall in love.
Act III: Champagne. Lots of it.
Finale: Happily ever after.

A little Friday curtain call for love, and with a long bank holiday weekend ahead, we suggest keeping the champagne flowing, the plans gloriously unplanned and the curtain firmly up.

Happy from One Aldwych 🤍

London has never been afraid of a little drama.

A grand entrance, a marching band and a very strict schedule? It’s all part of the routine at the Changing of the Guard. But beneath the polished performance is a centuries-old tradition with a very practical purpose.

There are two ways to explore Covent Garden.

You can follow the crowds... or you can follow your curiosity.

Take the side street. Push open the door that catches your eye. Meet the people who've been perfecting their craft for years. Leave with something you couldn't have ordered online if you tried.

As an independent hotel, we'll always champion the independents who make our neighbourhood feel like, well, a neighbourhood!

Here are a few of our favourites ✨

Jam first or cream first? It's Britain's favourite way to turn a perfectly pleasant afternoon into a heated discussion.

We've found a loophole. Add chocolate.

Our Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Afternoon Tea politely sidesteps centuries of debate by offering something everyone can agree on: if there's chocolate involved, nobody's looking at the scones anyway.

Team Jam, Team Cream, or Team Chocolate? 🍫

In celebration of our partnership with and World Theatre Day, Joy stepped out between scenes into the Lobby Bar - ‘The Joy’ cocktail in hand and her beloved C.S. Lewis classic never far away, for a moment of quiet indulgence before returning to the stage...✨
