London Treehouse Hotel

London

While none of us need justify a staycation this year, if we did, Treehouse in Marylebone provides ample warrant. Rising to its moniker, it sits at a lofty height opposite BBC HQ, providing bird’s-eye views of the capital. As expected from the 1 Hotel portfolio, elevated interiors are a given, too. While the group’s serious about sustainability – think reclaimed materials, living walls, complimentary bikes et al – their design ethos is one of playfulness which takes its cue from nature. Of the 95 rooms, those between the ninth and 11th floors come with cosy window seats that are more Williamsburg than W1, while bathrooms feature birch-tree stumps. Convivial spaces include lounge areas and Mexican restaurant Madera – little sister to the LA mainstay. The end result? Like coming home to roost.
