L’oscar is an exclusive 39-bedroom luxury hotel, once a neglected architectural treasure, now magnificently restored. The former Headquarters of the Baptist Church has been re-imagined in all its Baroque splendour. After years of dereliction, this 110-year-old gem has undergone an extravagant refurbishment by renowned French architect and designer Jacques Garcia, famous for Hotel Costes, marking his first London project. Conveniently located near Covent Garden, L’oscar is perfectly placed for those eager to explore the city's vibrant heart, with luxury boutiques, fine dining, and cultural landmarks like Theatreland, the British Museum, and the Royal Opera House just moments away. And, of course, it's wonderfully romantic too!
