Wimbledon, an Opulent Experience
June 15, 2015
Roger Sands
Held this year from June 29 to July 12 in the quaint suburb of London that bears the tournament's namesake, each year Wimbledon attracts close to 500,000 tennis fans from around the globe. After all, the world's most prestigious tennis venue is a place to be seen, and celebrity sightings are commonplace during the fortnight. As such, Wimbledon is always an extravagant date on the social calendars of the world's traveling elite. In a city known for pomp and circumstance, there are an abundance of luxurious London hotels that are designed to please and pamper. Among the most opulent are:
The May Fair
The May Fair Hotel is an icon of expressive design with a playful, unstuffy style that redefines the ethos of five-star hospitality. A glamorous heritage, bold design and distinctive style make the May Fair Hotel a truly unique experience. Imbued with the energy of its central London location, in every sense it is the sum of its surroundings – a nucleus for new ideas, a hub for happenings of every kind. Lavish without being showy, dramatic without compromising on comfort and with service that's attentive yet low-key, the May Fair redefines modern luxury with playful panache. At the newly opened May Fair Kitchen, talented chefs are obsessive about sourcing the finest produce locally and from overseas to ensure that every single dish is served to guests with thought and passion.
Andaz Liverpool Street
An original London railway hotel, Andaz Liverpool Street is housed in a beautiful redbrick Victorian building dating back to 1884. Inside, though, it transforms into a 21st Century masterpiece with 267 modern guest rooms and seven restaurants and bars. While still being within walking distance of London's historic centre, with the Tower of London and St. Paul's Cathedral, Andaz is ideally positioned to get off the main tourist track and explore London's East End and its array of galleries, boutiques, markets and nightlife in Shoreditch, Spitalfields and Brick Lane. From the moment you enter this London luxury hotel off Liverpool Street into the Andaz Lounge to check-in, you will experience the highest level of personal service. With seven London restaurants and bars to choose from there is something to suit all dining tastes. Savor afternoon tea and British fine dining in the city's highly-reviewed 1901 Restaurant & Wine Bar, authentic Japanese cuisine in Miyako, a brasserie grill menu in Eastway or traditional English pub fare in George. After a day at Wimbledon watching the sport's biggest stars, the new Catch Champagne Bar & Lounge is the perfect place to meet, relax or party the night away.
Taj 51 Buckingham Gate
Located minutes from Buckingham Palace, Taj 51 Buckingham Gate Suites and Residences exude excellence throughout every nook and cranny. They feature the world's only Jaguar Suite and a breathtaking Cinema Suite. Each suite has a separate living room, fully-equipped kitchens and luxurious bathrooms. Delight in fine dining at the Kona restaurant or experience the Michelin starred Quilon Restaurant, award-winning Courtyard garden and a Wellness Centre. The hotel offers authentic luxury in a bespoke and personalized environment and comprises three Victorian townhouses – Kings, Ministers and Falconers, each distinctly designed and beautifully restored to their iconic heritage. The 85 luxurious suites and residences with butler service offer the space and exclusivity of a private home each with their own separate kitchen.
Overall Experience
Wimbledon is much more than a tennis tournament. It's a social gathering of discerning travelers who enjoy rubbing elbows with the rich and famous, including English royalty, movie stars and other celebrities. There's no better way to spend a day in London.
