The perks: Reserved for The Londoner Hotel guests, The Residence (which, despite its name, is an executive lounge and not a place to spend the night) is an exclusive club that exudes English sensibilities with its wood-panelled walls and tributes to influential British figures like Winston Churchill.
In the morning, sit down for a leisurely breakfast (and possibly the best crab congee you’ll ever have) or visit later for a buffet-style afternoon tea. Each evening, enjoy cocktails, canapes, an excellent selection of jazz and blues – plus a round of snooker, should you fancy!
