LONDON ISSUE 18 Jun 2004

One Aldwych is an ideal hotel for production crews looking for style, quality and facilities. It offers a cinema to watch the day's 'rushes', dining and bar, business centre, shops, health club, 18m-lap pool and sanarium. Each of the 106 bedrooms has been individually designed, subtly creating a feeling of endless space.

This classical stone building in the heart of London was reconstructed by architects Jestico + Whiles to create one of the world's leading 5-star hotels. Described by the press as "the architectural equivalent of a Gucci or Prada suit", particular praise has been given to the sleekly minimalist double height lobby bar and its discrete reception overlooked by a flamboyant balcony restaurant.
