About Rosewood London

High Holborn sits within easy reach of Covent Garden, and it's here that Rosewood London occupies a substantial site with 306 rooms. The building is arranged around a garden courtyard with outdoor seating, giving the place a sense of space that's unusual for central London, and the interiors carry an elegant, well-kept feel throughout.

Rooms come with en-suite bathrooms, air conditioning and free WiFi, with family and accessible options available and drinks provided in-room. The hotel's Scarfes Bar has a reputation for live music and good cocktails, while the restaurant and afternoon tea service are particular strengths. Guests are looked after by concierge and porter teams, with room service, laundry, and luggage storage all on hand, plus a gym and spa for downtime.

The hotel also caters to weddings, with a bridal suite and VIP facilities, and offers childcare, valet parking and airport transfers for those who need them. Pets are welcome, and the surrounding streets offer nearby pubs, restaurants and entertainment for guests keen to explore beyond the courtyard.

We had the most amazing afternoon tea at the Rosewood for our wedding. The team were absolutely brilliant, right from the planning stage – even though it was a really small family affair, they never made us feel like our wedding day was anything less than top priority. When the day arrived, everything was set up perfectly and as soon as I walked through the door, I knew I could just relax and enjoy myself. And I was right! The food and drink were impeccable; the service was exceptional (the staff even went out of their way to entertain our niece and nephews with soft toys!); and we all had the most fantastic, memorable time. We had booked a room for ourselves overnight, too, and the suite, room service, and breakfast the next day were also fabulous. Thank you so much to Ellie and the entire Rosewood team for making our wedding so special.

I flew in from the US for a movie premiere and I knew this was the hotel I needed to stay at for sure! My expectations were exceeded staying here for the week. The staff were incredibly helpful and kind, they made me feel right at home! Food was great (ordered room service more than I can count). The restaurant downstairs was great for breakfast. The hotel is immaculate and very picturesque. Location is fantastic, walking distance from of restaurants, coffee shops and stores. You can't go wrong staying at the Rosewood!

The Rosewood London is a masterclass in luxury. From the moment you enter the stunning courtyard patio, you are met with an atmosphere that is both grand and intimate. Located in an ideal part of town, it provides seamless access to vibrant areas like Soho while remaining a sophisticated sanctuary within the city. The Rooms & Service The service here is impeccable—proactive, warm, and professional across every department. The rooms are generously spacious and designed for genuine comfort, offering a perfect retreat with a level of character that modern luxury hotels often lack. Dining Flexibility I appreciated having two distinct options for breakfast. The standard included option (buffet plus some a la carte) is good, though not exceptional. However, the breakfast in the Mirror Room is outstanding. While it comes at a higher price point, the quality and service are world-class and well worth the upgrade for a special morning experience. Scarfes Bar Scarfes Bar is a destination in its own right and a primary reason to stay here. Ranked as one of the best bars in the world, it lives up to its reputation with creative cocktails and phenomenal live music every night. It adds a vibrant, soulful energy to the property that makes the stay truly memorable. Verdict The Rosewood London delivers exactly what a 5-star hotel should: effortless charm, spacious comfort, and unique amenities. Whether you are there for the music at Scarfes or the quiet luxury of the rooms, it is easily one of the finest stays in London.

An incredible stay. Thank you for such a memorable experience. From the moment we arrived, every detail for our children was thoughtfully prepared: the plush toys, coloring books, little slippers… these small touches truly make the difference and reflect the level of excellence and care that defines Rosewood. A big thank you as well to the team at Holborn Dining Room for breakfast. The service was impeccable, attentive, efficient, and genuinely warm throughout our stay. A special mention to the young brunette hostess at the entrance of Holborn Dining Room for breakfast, who made us feel extremely welcome and shared great recommendations, including the Citymapper app, which made getting around so much easier. Thank you again for a wonderful stay, we will definitely be back. BELLAZRAK Family
