About One Aldwych
One Aldwych is an independent luxury hotel in the heart of Covent Garden. Home to Indigo, the Lobby Bar and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Afternoon Tea, the hotel has built a reputation for hospitality with character. Independence remains at the heart of the business, creating a culture that values individuality and encourages fresh thinking. Original in shape, style and story, One Aldwych is a place where people can build their careers, contribute ideas and take pride in what they do.
Designed to be more than just a place to lay your head, each suite and bedroom at One Aldwych embraces a contemporary, stylish character ready to host, cocoon and enchant. Bespoke furniture and fittings were either crafted by British manufacturers or pay homage to the sense of modern, independent Britishness that we represent.
