Set in the beautiful 200-acre Syon Park Estate—the ancestral home of the<br />
Duke of Northumberland—this newly built Waldorf Astoria hotel opened its<br />
doors in March 2011. Heathrow Airport is seven miles away, ideal for those<br />
flying in and out of London regularly, but want the greenery of a country<br />
retreat. Use the hotel’s helipad to dodge London traffic. Guests enjoy access<br />
to the Syon House grounds through a special gate, and can partake in<br />
rural pursuits like trout fishing, foraging, punting and shooting. For private<br />
functions, The Clubhouse is available for exclusive hire—occupying an entire<br />
wing of the hotel, this elegant space includes an informal restaurant and bar<br />
and an eclectic collection of bedrooms. For a haute couture spa service, the<br />
Kallima Spa eschews a spa menu in favor of a made-to-measure session<br />
based on individual consultation. Cosmetic surgeon to the stars, Alex<br />
Karidis, is available for non-surgical treatments.<br />
TOP SUITE<br />
PRESIDENTIAL SUITE<br />
� Square footage: 531 � Nightly rate: $6,279<br />
Why we love it: Continuing the theme of Mother Nature meets sophisticated<br />
luxury, the Presidential Suite at the London Syon Park is one of the finest<br />
in the city. Featuring rich décor befitting a 400-year-old English manor, the<br />
suite combines aristocratic opulence with state-of-the-art-technology in way<br />
that never feels contrived. The windows of the spacious living room provide a<br />
beautiful view overlooking the courtyard garden with its 180-year old bonsai<br />
tree. The two bedrooms both feature en-suite bathrooms, and the dining<br />
room is perfect for entertaining guests.
