Next year, Six Senses, the luxury hotel and spa brand from IHG Hotels & Resorts, makes its entrance into several popular destinations, including London. In fact, the debut of Six Senses London in the first half of 2025 will be the brand’s first hotel in the United Kingdom.

Offering an urban sanctuary at The Whiteley, a reimagined department store near Hyde Park, Six Senses London will boast 109 guestrooms, 14 residents and the world’s first Six Senses Place. This private members’ club will be designed for holistic wellbeing, making a hotel and wellness oasis in the very heart of London. This club includes a central bar and lounge, coworking spaces, a restaurant, and wellness and treatment rooms.
