The Rosewood
Rosewood London is situated in one of the capital’s most historic thoroughfares, High Holborn, a road that dates back to Roman times.
The magnificent street frontage, which today is the entrance to Rosewood London, features a central carriageway entrance and dome leading into a grand courtyard, which provides a calm sanctuary away from the bustle of the city.
Inside, the lavish interiors are fitted out with Cuban mahogany and seven types of marble, including extremely rare types such as Swedish Green and Statuary. One of the most dramatic features of this five-star heritage hotel is the Renaissance-style seven-storey grand staircase, an architectural tour de force in marble. It ascends from either side of the entrance on High Holborn, forming a bridge on the first floor and rising through all the floors under an elliptical dome. Looking upwards, the arcades of Pavonazzo marble frame a view of the cupola that rises to 50.6 meters (166 feet), the maximum permitted height at the time of construction.
With a nod to the building’s rich history, three individual heritage boardrooms are named in honour of Chairmen of Pearl Assurance Company. The Grade II-listed building is now sensitively renovated throughout to provide accommodation with the feel of a stylish London residence.
With its central location and immaculately restored Edwardian Grade II-listed building, Rosewood London is one of the city’s best spots for bespoke events. A range of spaces – from the stunning Grand Ballroom to historic boardrooms – combine modern amenities with original architectural features, ensuring each event can be individually tailored to meet the most demanding requirements.
