Six Senses, a luxury and lifestyle brand by IHG Hotels and Resorts, has made its UK debut with a hotel in the former Whiteley’s department store in London.
Its London location joins the brand’s growing portfolio of urban hotels around the world, including Six Senses Rome and Six Senses Kyoto.
Six Senses London takes up a quarter of The Whiteley building’s mixed use development, with spaces by AvroKO and EPR Architects designed to suit the site’s original Art Deco features.
The building has also been fitted to attract pollinators, with green roofs and perennial planting.
The hotel includes 109 rooms and suites, many with private terraces, and 14 branded residences.
It additionally houses Whitely’s Kitchen, Bar and Café, offering “modern British dining”, and a 2,300-square-metre wellness facility with London’s first hotel magnesium pool, a 20-metre indoor swimming pool as well as cryotherapy, flotation and recovery spaces.
Six Senses London is also home to the brand’s new private members concept ‘Six Senses Place’.
Commenting on the hotel’s opening, Nick Yarnell said: “We’ve designed Six Senses London to feel effortlessly welcoming, meeting guests at their own rhythm or gently guiding them toward a different one.
“Shaped by that ethos and the building’s rich history, everything we do, from the restaurant and bar to the spa and rooms, is rooted in connection. Whether your visit is brief or you’re settling in, we want you to feel a genuine sense of belonging to the neighbourhood and community around you, with joy and care at the heart of it all.”
Neil Palmer, Six Senses chief operating officer, added: “This intentional next step perfectly captures the thoughtful path of Six Senses dedication to the needs of modern luxury travellers. By bringing the Six Senses core vision of reconnection to cosmopolitan cities such as Rome, Kyoto and now London we are creating urban sanctuaries.
“These are places and spaces designed for shorter stays and modern living which support guests to feel good every day. No longer just on a fleeting holiday, but on home soil too. While Six Senses resorts offer immersive, nature-inspired experiences, our urban locations infuse this same outlook with the energy of city environments.”
He continued: “This is exactly what we’re doing at Six Senses London – breathing new life into a once-sleeping giant at The Whiteley. Here, well-being is woven into daily life, curiosity is celebrated, and like-minded communities come together to connect and grow.”
