I love a hotel where everything is monogrammed with my initials. Especially when my room overlooks Hyde Park. I think I can safely say The Metropolitan is my new favorite home away from home in London: the clean design and tranquil atmosphere are an antidote to the city – plus there’s the added bonus of everything you’d expect in a five star hotel without any of the unnecessary fuss and pomp. Oh and there’s Nobu, too, natch.
