Henrietta Hotel London

It’s all about the location at this chic, boutique hotel, which overlooks Covent Garden’s historic piazza, and the cafes, bars and restaurant that line it.

There’s nothing grand or showy about the Henrietta; rooms have subtle, art deco touches, with decor in powder pink and cobalt blue; this is an under-the-radar bolthole for those who want quiet style without any fuss.

The ground floor is home to the hotel’s bar and restaurant, the Italian Supper Club, which offers bright, summery Tyrrhenian fare, and lesser-known wines from the western coastline around Cinque Terre.
