CANOPY BY HILTON,
LONDON
This new brand from the world-famous hotel chain aims for more of a boutique feel, with nods to the local history and heritage. It’s set in the heart of the city, and the staff are friendly and enthusiastic, nudging you to try their cocktail creations or venture out on a complimentary hire bike. Whether you sample a small plate from the bar or book a table at the new Penny Squares restaurant, the food will not disappoint. Rooms have a mid-century modern vibe, with stunning views, and later this spring, rooftop bar Florattica – designed with a nod to 17th century Huguenot silk weavers – will become the hottest haunt in town. Rooms from £189 a night (Hilton.com).
