(4823)

True to its original glamorous spirit, Café Royal has reopened as a luxury 5 star hotel in the heart of central London. With elegant Mayfair to the west and creative Soho to the east, Hotel Café Royal is perfectly positioned within walking distance of London’s finest shopping districts, cultural attractions and the West End.. Paying homage to the history of the building, grand historic areas have

been sensitively restored and a selection of restaurants, bars and events spaces are a tribute to the rich heritage of excellent hospitality and dining. In its reincarnation this iconic London landmark now features 160 grand and contemporary bedrooms and luxurious suites, including seven historic suites. Continuing its celebrated legacy, Hotel Café Royal offers a selection of restaurants and bars for guests to enjoy. At the heart of the hotel, the Ten Room offers British informal all-day dining while the Green Bar is the perfect place to relax and unwind with a cocktail. Restored to revive the ornate Louis XVI décor and detailing, the iconic Oscar Wilde Bar (formerly the Grill Room originally established in 1865), is now the place to enjoy traditional afternoon tea. The Café, fronting vibrant Regent Street, revives the European tradition of café culture and offers the finest patisserie, coffee specialities and light dishes morning til late. To complete the full experience, the Akasha Holistic Wellbeing Centre is an urban retreat in the heart of town. Spanning over 1,200sqm, this haven features a state-of-the-art gym, spa, yoga and Pilates studios, a large pool and is open to hotel guests, day spa visitors and members.

POV: your suite has front-row seats to London’s most iconic backdrop. 🎬

Piccadilly Circus, the lights, Regent Street St James… the kind of view you’ve seen in films, read about in books and probably recognised before you even arrived.

Only this time, you’re not watching the scene - you’re in it. ✨

A novel afternoon has arrived. 📖✨

Introducing London’s Most Literary Afternoon Tea at Hotel Café Royal, where Oscar Wilde, Virginia Woolf and John le Carré take their seats at the table, and their most iconic works become the inspiration for a rather delicious new chapter.

From Dorian’s Gilded Mirror to Mrs Dalloway’s Hat and The Secret Letter, Head Pastry Chef has turned prose, plot and personality into pâtisserie. Expect a little Wilde decadence, a touch of Woolf’s Bloomsbury and a few le Carré secrets, too.

The savouries have their own literary following, with nods to Rudyard Kipling, W. B. Yeats and George Bernard Shaw. And when the final chapter arrives, three edible books bring the story to a very sweet conclusion.

For more than 160 years, Café Royal has been a place to sit, talk and linger. Now, with joining us for this delicious literary journey, you can browse the books, savour the stories and perhaps discover a new favourite author along the way.

The plot thickens. The tea pours. And the ending? Deliciously sweet.

Now available in the historic Café Royal Grill until 4th November!

Come for the tea. Stay for the plot... ‘BOOK’ now📚✨

Plot twist: the next chapter is delicious. 📖

The literary legends of Café Royal are back at the table. Wilde. Woolf. le Carré. And a few more familiar names…

For over 150 years, Café Royal has been a setting for stories, conversations and characters of all kinds. This September, we’re turning the pages of its literary history and adding a little pâtisserie to the plot.

Expect a little wit. A little wonder. A lot of literary flair.

London’s Most Literary Afternoon Tea.

🐾 International Dog Day at Hotel Café Royal 🐾

Today we’re looking back at some of our most adorable four-legged guests who have checked in, curled up, explored and generally made themselves right at home. 🐶✨

From tiny paws to very important wagging tails, we’ve loved welcoming every one of them. After all, every great stay is better with a dog. 🐾🤎

Here’s to our favourite VIPs - Very Important Pups. 🐕🥂

Mission: Dome Edition

Mission accepted. 🕵️‍♂️

Our very own secret agent is taking Mission: Impossible to new London heights, abseiling down our iconic copper dome for a little summer TLC. 👷‍♂️

Because when you’ve got a historic dome to keep in tip-top shape before the British autumn and winter arrive, apparently this is how you do it. 🎬☔️

No stunt double. Just one very fearless team and health and top level health and safety ropes…

Everyone walking through Piccadilly Circus is on their way to a story…

Some are seeing London for the very first time✈️
Some are about to say “yes.” 💍
Some are celebrating something they’ve waited years for 🥂
Some are ticking off a bucket list 📸
Some are simply making memories with the people they love❤️

And for a little moment, all of those stories cross paths in the same place.

There’s something special about being in the heart of it all. 📍✨
