The highly anticipated Raffles London at The OWO welcomes guests from May, introducing a new era of ultra-luxury hospitality to the heart of the British capital. Set within the revered Grade II* listed former Old War Office on Whitehall, this architectural masterpiece has undergone a meticulous five-year transformation. The result is an exclusive collection of 120 lavish rooms and suites, 85 bespoke branded residences, and 11 exceptional dining and drinking destinations. The hotel’s world-class wellness facilities include a state-of-the-art spa—featuring a serene swimming pool—and treatments by Guerlain, as well as an advanced fitness center. Guests can also enjoy a spectacular rooftop restaurant and bar offering sweeping vistas of Whitehall, The Mall, and Buckingham Palace.
Signature suites at Raffles London occupy some of the building’s most storied chambers, once the private offices of legendary figures such as Winston Churchill and T.E. Lawrence. The historic site is famed for inspiring Ian Fleming’s James Bond novels and has provided a dramatic backdrop for numerous Bond films including Skyfall, Spectre, Licence to Kill, A View to a Kill, Octopussy, and No Time To Die.
With 11 destination restaurants and bars curated by world-renowned chefs, Raffles London at The OWO is poised to become a culinary epicentre. Michelin-starred chef Mauro Colagreco brings all-day Mediterranean flair to Saison, while the Pillar Kitchen serves up innovative, health-focused cuisine.
Acclaimed international venues such as Milan’s Paper Moon and the celebrated Parisian Café Lapérouse also make their London debut at the hotel, enriching the city’s dining landscape.
Part of the prestigious Accor Group, Raffles now boasts 20 flagship properties across 14 countries, with an additional 15 openings planned globally in the coming years—cementing its reputation as a leader in luxury hospitality.
