West End glitz, East End hip: Two sides of London luxury
The STK Restaurant is one of the dining options at the Me London in the city?s West End.
London is at no loss for luxury, no matter how you might define it. The city is divided, more or less, into the chic West End and shabby East End, though nowadays the line between both is beyond blurred.
Traditionalists will want to stick to the West End of London, where names such as Four Seasons, Dorchester Collection and Mandarin Oriental accent the skyline. For that classic West London elegance with 21st-century trendsetting, consider the Me London.
The glitzy hotel sits on the triangular corner of Aldwych, on the Strand at the tip of Covent Garden, smack in the center of London’s Theatreland. Guests enter the washed-in-white ground floor and are swept up to the first-floor lobby and check-in. The decor of the hotel is minimalist and modern with a monochrome art-deco vibe that comes off in shiny metals, blacks and whites. The hotel has 157 rooms, including 16 suites, with the most VIP being the Suite Me, a two-floor penthouse. There is a variety of room types, from ones with private terraces on the upper two levels to individual suites with large, separate, marble bathrooms.
On the top floor of the hotel is Radio, the rooftop terrace, complete with a sky bar that offers views over the River Thames and the Westminster skyline. Other facilities include conference space and a fitness center.
A centerpiece of the hotel is its dining options, including the STK Restaurant and Cucina...
