  • Staying on the 49th floor with some incredible views of London and experiencing both sunrise and sunset is something we’ll remember forever. Incredible! The room was very nicely appointed and a heated toilet seat is something new for me! All in all I can’t fault the building, the restaurant, the pool or the staff. However, management please listen to this - when you’re spending roughly £1,100 per night you do not expect to encounter hidden charges on checkout! There’s a daily service charge for the room which I presume is for housekeeping and although breakfast was included, we were then charged a service charge on checkout. Management - please don’t come back with a comment about them being optional. This is disrespectful behaviour, it’s £1,100 per night, if you feel it should be £1,150 to cover your housekeeping then make it that. Nobody likes unexpected charges regardless of what they have available to spend, it’s rude, underhand and we really didn’t appreciate it. I heard others complaining about it too. It’s not about the cost, it’s about the way you’re handling it.

  • I booked Shangri-la for a weekend stay for my husband’s birthday. When we arrived everyone was extremely helpful and when they found out we were already late for our brunch booking at Aqua, the reception staff made even more effort to quickly explain our benefits (booked through concierge to receive Golden Circle benefits) and send us on our way. When we finished our brunch, the room was ready and we were informed that they upgraded us to a suite. When you enter your room at the Shangri-la, the curtains open to unveil the view of London. Staff wrote a lovely Happy Birthday note on a window in our room as well as above the bath. When we arrived after dinner, there was a bottle of champagne, chocolates and a note from the hotel to wish my husband happy birthday again. It was a small touch but it made the stay very special for him. Breakfast was served buffet style with Asian influence; usual cooked breakfast, dim sum, congee, cereal, pastries and fresh fruit. It was located in Ting restaurant, once again with spectacular views of London. On the third day, we had lunch at Ting Restaurant and our favourite dish was Fujian Fried Rice which was delicious. Overall we had an amazing stay, staff paid attention to the smallest details and we’ll definitely be back.

THE OMNIA – FROM THE GREAT WIDE WORLD TO THE SMALLEST DETAIL “Here on a rock surrounded by the mountains—witnesses to an era that unfolded with primordial force millions of years ago. Giant stone sculptures, dense pine forests, meadows with alpine flowers and the majestic peaks of eternal ice, ready to captivate all the senses. At 1,600 meters above sea level, a small step closer to the sun, the moon, and the sky with its passing clouds that bring the white of winter and wraps everything as if in cotton and encloses the mountainous world in silence. Here you can forget time, forget where you come from, forget where you are going. Enjoy life with all your senses. And the events of the days and nights, however big or small, are never to be forgotten. This is the place where rooms have no numbers, where the philosophy of Being and Time knows no limits, where all things tell a story of the great wide world, where they were forged and now reinvented the days in harmony with the elements.”
