Independent Report
locationSt Martins Lane is a wonderful 5 star hotel located in the heart of Covent Garden. It is within walking distance to West End theatres, Trafalgar Square, Leicester Square and Soho.
generalThe hotel also has a state-of-the-art gymnasium and a supervised children play area.
lobbySt Martins Lane's lobby is a soaring and theatrical space that offers a provocative manipulation of dimension and proportion. Starck presents a visually stunning play on scale, with oversize columns and angled niches painted a deep fluorescent yellow, complemented by Portuguese limestone floors.From its acid-etched, double-height yellow glass facade to its unpredictable plays on vivid color to the dramatic series of columns that appear as shining towers, St Martins Lane's lobby is a triumph of color and light.
exteriorIt is a modern building which from the front appears to be constructed out of glass only. The hotel does not have its name over the door the way other properties tend to.
restaurantThe hotel has a very well-known restaurant, Asia de Cuba which is overseen by renowned international restaurateur Jeffrey Chodorow. It combines elements of Asian and Cuban cuisine served sharing-style in a high energy London restaurant.Housed in a dramatically colonnaded space, Asia de Cuba's innovative menu is matched in its surroundings by a dramatic series of soaring art columns. Asia de Cuba not only serves huge sharing portions for dinner, it has adapted the famous dishes for Bento Boxes, perfect for lunch or pre-theater. At the end of your experience, you can also take a little piece home with the new Chocolate Menu, featuring classic Asia de Cuba cocktails and flavors such as 'Deluxe Mojito' and 'Thai Chilli' encapsulated in chocolate.At St Martins Lane there is also the well-known" The Light Bar" which is a unique and breathtaking London club that takes the concept of atmospheric lighting to new heights. Guests gather to sip the now famous cocktails, such as Raspassion Martini, Lighten Up Champagne, Strawberry Cheesecake and Lychee and Elderflower Collins, snack on Asia de Cuba delights, chat and people watch in a series of cozy niches that are bathed in warmly vibrant shafts of colored light,pink, orange, violet, and green. The walls are hung with enormous black & white close-up photographs of people making.
