The world's first super boutique hotel set to open late 2020 in London

Edwardian Hotels has elevated London’s hospitality scene with The Londoner, an iconic flagship property that has set a new global benchmark as the first-ever super boutique hotel. With an investment exceeding £300 million, The Londoner combines the intimacy of a boutique experience with the scale and amenities of a grand hotel.

Nestled in the vibrant heart of Leicester Square, The Londoner occupies a coveted location within London’s West End, placing guests amid the capital’s celebrated theatres, restaurants, and cultural pulse. The hotel officially opened its doors in 2021, and has since become a magnet for discerning travelers seeking refined, contemporary luxury.

Boasting 350 meticulously designed rooms, including 35 lavish suites and an exclusive tower penthouse, The Londoner reimagines the boutique concept on an unprecedented scale. Its vertical architecture is a marvel—six subterranean levels descend to a remarkable depth of 30 metres, making it one of the deepest hospitality structures worldwide.

The Londoner is a testament to modern sustainability, seamlessly integrating eco-conscious practices in every facet—from energy-efficient systems to locally inspired design elements. Guests can indulge in six distinct dining venues, including a stylish rooftop izakaya with panoramic city views and a signature firepit, a sophisticated tavern, and a selection of globally inspired eateries. The hotel’s wellness sanctuary features an expansive subterranean spa, while two private cinemas, versatile event spaces, and a grand ballroom accommodating more than 1,000 guests cater to both leisure and business travelers.

Interiors are conceived by the acclaimed design studio Yabu Pushelberg, renowned for their work with Four Seasons New York and other luxury icons. The Londoner’s aesthetic harmoniously balances British heritage with understated elegance—neutral tones, curated art collections, and inviting communal spaces create a serene urban retreat. Floor-to-ceiling windows flood the rooms with natural light, while cutting-edge smart technology and ultra-fast Wi-Fi ensure a seamless, connected stay.

As a proud member of the Preferred Hotels & Resorts Legend Collection, The Londoner continually garners accolades for its innovative approach and impeccable service. Nightly rates for entry-level rooms begin at £500, with the penthouse suite available for up to £10,000 per night, reflecting its status as one of London’s most exclusive addresses.
