Dating back to 1922, the building was designed by Sir Edward Cooper, and was previously the Port of London Authority. During World War Two, the hotel’s rotunda roof was damaged by bombing. In 1946, the Un Ballroom hosted the inaugural reception for the United Nations General Assembly. If the walls could talk, we would listen.

Rooms and residences

The rooms range from the Premier Room and Superior Room, and the suites range from the Four Seasons Heritage Suite to the Royal Garden Suite. Plus, the recent addition includes the Skyline Penthouse with four bedrooms. 

FACT checked into a Two Bedroom Hotel Residence. As a former Londoner, the sheer size was sensational, making it family-friendly and great for groups. Spanning up to 2,449 square feet, as we opened door after door, we got more and more excited. First, there was the big, black entrance door fit for a townhouse. The guest bathroom, utility room, two en suite bedrooms, and an open plan reception with a living room, dining room and kitchen. Don’t forget the kitchen doors, from the double fridge door to the three – yes, three! – oven doors. 

The reception cuts a sleek and sophisticated design. Dark hues are punctuated by golden touches, patterned cushions and paintings. A tablet is on hand to set the scene, from the tunes to temperature, books by Paul Theroux to Peter Frankopan add personality, and the views whisper London.

Getting ready was fancy and fun, thanks to the bath with a TV, fluffy robes and walk-in-wardrobe. And the master bedroom’s neutral tones, soft furnishings and Codage amenities sent us to sweet, stylish dreams. 

Restaurants and bars 

Four Seasons Hotel London at Ten Trinity Square’s Rotunda Bar and Lounge is at the heart of the hotel. The dome is modelled on its neighbour, St Paul’s Cathedral. Open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, it is an opulent setting with a piano, red carpets and staff in velvet coats. Breakfast is an elegant experience with classical music, and a brimming buffet with cold cuts, cheeses and Champagne. Dishes range from Shakshuka to Steak with Eggs. 

London boasts 13 two MICHELIN Starred restaurants, and this hotel is home to one of them. Anne-Sophie Pic is the world’s most decorated female chef, and La Dame De Pic is a masterclass in a MICHELIN meal. We were wowed by the six-course Decouverte menu, which included Cornish Red Mullet, Scottish Crab, and Welsh Spring Lamb. Ask nicely, and you can applaud the chefs in the kitchen. If you want an encore, the restaurant recently opened at One&Only One Za’beel in Dubai.

Four Seasons Hotel London at Ten Trinity Square is also home to Mei Ume, which combines Chinese and Japanese food. Plus, an in-room dining experience for residences, which is created by the MICHELIN-Starred team.
