The Waldorf Hilton, London is delighted to announce the completion of a £3.4million overhaul of 100 guest rooms. The recent refurbishment is part of a larger £11.5million hotel-wide redevelopment that has seen the Adelphi Suite and Good Godfrey’s bar restored back to their elegant 1920s art deco style.The interior designer, Fox Linton Associates, has brought 100 of The Waldorf Hilton, London guest rooms in-line with the character and Edwardian heritage of the historic hotel. The guest rooms and en-suites have undergone a complete make-over, with state-of-the-art contemporary facilities and amenities incorporated into the sophisticated art deco appearance of the rooms.

The guest rooms are complemented by pastel colours that evoke calmness and tranquillity and are furnished in Italian leather headboards with antique brass studs, lacquered wardrobe doors and fluted glass accessories.

The bathrooms have been designed to create an elegant statement and the monochrome palette of white ceramic tiles with black trim and nickel fittings compliments the era exuded by the rest of the building.

Peter Beckwith, general manager, The Waldorf Hilton, London said, “The newly refurbished rooms use the charm and character of the 104 year old hotel to their advantage, providing guests with a unique and elegant place to call home whilst visiting the city. We want to provide a traditionally British experience and aim to offer a slice of the rich history the hotel has to offer to our guests.”

Situated in Aldwych close to both the city, and the shops, bars, theatres and restaurants of the West End, The Waldorf Hilton, London is perfectly located for both leisure and business travellers.
