An Innovative and Unique 'Super Boutique' Hotel Makes Its Mark on Leicester Square

A Hotel Category of One.

As you step into The Londoner, either through its atmospheric hotel lobby or the private 50 Whitcomb Street entrance, you’re transported to a world far removed from the bustling West End outside. For meetings and events of all kinds, The Londoner offers an immersive setting that spans three floors, seamlessly blending its spaces. From the state-of-the-art, pillarless ballroom to the velvet-lined, mirrored soirée room, every area is designed to captivate.

Beneath the ground floor lies The Green Room, a chic, self-contained space featuring a private bar, dance floor, and stylish design—perfect for private dinners and parties of up to 150 guests.

From here, guests can descend via the striking staircase or lifts to The Ballroom, The Londoner’s breathtaking centrepiece. This 850-capacity venue evokes the grandeur of West End theatres and serves as a versatile canvas for any occasion, whether it’s a conference, gala, wedding, or after-party. With two kitchens ensuring seamless dining and cutting-edge AV technology—including a line array sound system, hybrid optical fibre broadcast infrastructure, and remote-controlled directional spotlights—The Ballroom is equipped to bring even the most ambitious visions to life.

Adjoining The Ballroom is a pre-function foyer, where undulating velvet walls and a curated art collection create a welcoming space. Ideal for receptions and post-event cocktails, this area sets the tone for an unforgettable experience.

One floor below, you’ll find The Londoner’s private art gallery, a unique multi-functional foyer and exhibition space. With seven adjoining private rooms, this area is perfect for meetings, roadshows, cocktail receptions, and private dinners. Additionally, behind a hidden door lie two ODEON Luxe cinema rooms, with 70 and 168 seats respectively, offering a private screening experience powered by the best in technology.

After the event, The Londoner’s modern rooms and suites provide the perfect place to unwind. Guests also have access to The Residence—three beautifully designed spaces to relax, work, and enjoy complimentary refreshments—and The Retreat, a stunning wellness floor with a pool, sauna, gym, hair salon, and more.

The Londoner is also home to six versatile restaurants and bars, each offering a unique dining experience. Whether you're arranging a post-conference dinner, booking a table for delegates, or hiring the entire venue, these spaces are designed to accommodate every occasion. Whitcomb’s serves refined French cuisine and wine in an elegant setting, while 8 at The Londoner features a stunning Japanese rooftop bar and garden. For a more relaxed atmosphere, Joshua’s Tavern is a cosy spot for pints, gins, and gastro bites, and The Whisky Room is a hidden gem for exclusive VIP receptions and whisky tastings.

Sustainability is at the heart of The Londoner’s innovation. Funded by a groundbreaking £175m Green Loan, the hotel incorporates sustainable technologies that have earned it an ‘Excellent’ BREEAM rating, reducing carbon usage by 30% beyond regulations. In its first year, The Londoner’s excellence was recognised with multiple awards, including ‘Hotel of the Year’ and five other accolades at the AHEAD Global and Europe Awards.

The Londoner is more than just a venue—it’s a category of one, where every corner invites guests to experience something extraordinary.
