One of London’s most significant historic buildings has been transformed into a luxury hotel by Raffles Hotels & Resorts - the company’s first property in the UK.

The Raffles Hotel London takes residence at the The Old War Office, a neo-Baroque building in Whitehall that was once the office of Winston Churchill, and which also served as the headquarters for sections of the British secret service.

The London hotel will feature 125 rooms (50 of which will be suites) as well as 88 private residences.
