Something for the weekend: The Langham, London

Could this be London's most glamorous hotel?

By Jessica David

In a nutshell
Distinctive charm, grandeur and character in the heart of London's buzzing West End. The Langham opened in 1865 as Europe's first grand hotel and has hosted royalty, foreign dignitaries and the cream of the A-list during this time. The recent multi-million pound refurbishment has seen a few contemporary and stylish twists enhancing this Victorian landmark. From the oh-so chic lobby to the 160 elegantly designed and spacious rooms, this five-star hotel is the very epitome of old-school luxury.

Perfect for...
Couples looking to reinvent ‘Date Night'. This London gem's recent make-over saw the launch of a chic and glamorous new bar, Artesian (we love their cocktails), and a seriously stylish restaurant, The Landau, which only add to its appeal. This makes it the perfect one-stop-shop for couples looking to find a fantastic evening's entertainment, a little romance and overnight stay, all under one roof. What's more, the central London location makes it the perfect stop-over for those looking to explore the heart of the capital.

Liking...
The fantastic views of London town, the cutting-edge ice on offer in the bar (through the very latest technology, the ice is purer, colder and with a higher density, to make the ice last longer, and the cocktails colder and more potent!) and the absolutely delicious Landau Martini from the new and exclusive cocktail menu. There's plenty to enjoy!
