L'oscar London is one of the most theatrical hotels in the capital, set in a grand former Baptist Church headquarters on Southampton Row in Holborn and reimagined by designer Jacques Garcia in a riot of gilded panels, peacock motifs, silk and deep colour. Named in homage to Oscar Wilde, it is pure jewel-box opulence in the heart of literary Bloomsbury.

At its heart is the L'oscar Restaurant, the go-to place for delectable breakfasts, bistro-style lunches and intimate dinners beneath mirrored ceilings and around an illuminated onyx bar, amid stunning original art.

For a flamboyant, design-led London stay, L'oscar is a standout.
