L'Oscar London | New must-see address

L’oscar London is an exclusive luxury hotel and an architectural gem. The former headquarters of the Baptist Church has now been wonderfully restored and splendidly refurbished in all its Baroque glory by renowned French architect and designer Jacques Garcia.

The hotel features 39 bedrooms of which 18 are suites and is also home to the decadent L’oscar Restaurant and Baptist Bar alongside other more unique function spaces for smaller and larger meetings and events. The imagination and attention to detail in the décor creates a typically non-English and theatrical style and is the ideal setting providing a luxurious escape in the city.

L’oscar London is a place to both stay and play – it promises to be a destination of both visual and gastronomic temptation.

Heritage and history

The hotel is Grade II* listed and considered a particularly important building of more than special interest in the United Kingdom. Not only is this the first hotel of Michel Reybier Hospitality in London, but it was also the first time that the renowned architect Jacques Garcia designed a London hotel.

True to his style, the Frenchman lent the rooms opulence and, above all, atmosphere with a keen sense of history and attention to detail.

The name L’oscar pays tribute to the world-famous writer Oscar Wilde. It ties into the literary and history of the area, as it was home to a group of associated writers, philosophers and artists including Virginia Woolf, E.M Forster and Lytton Strachey, known as the ‘Bloomsbury Set’.
