It is a seductive, insider's hotel and has affirmed itself as a favourite with many discerning individuals. Halkin offers a host of complimentary extras for frequent guests.

The hotel's 41 rooms share a sleek, cosseting aesthetic, featuring cool taupes, creams and beige crafted by Italian designer Edith Leschke of Milanese studio Laboratorio Associati.

A chic and modern edge is powerfully felt in uncluttered spaces, the satisfying curves and lines softened by textures, colours and shades of marble. Each floor, differently inspired, explores a subtle palette drawn from water, air, earth, fire and sky.

On the fifth floor, concave ceilings and rich wood pannelling create a cocoon-like feeling of warmth and comfort.

Enjoy the sense of space afforded by intelligent design with an eye to detail, from leather-bordered taffeta curtains to decadent, all-marble bathrooms - among the largest in London with separate walk-in showers.
