The Lalit London *****

🎢 A staycation in a Victorian grammar school turned into a 5-star hotel with bold Indian notes. Original parquet floors, towering classroom windows, corridors with impossible ceiling heights and rooms blending British woodwork with colours from the subcontinent. On the menu: Baluchi set inside the former assembly hall, a bar tucked into the old Teacher’s Room, a spa to unwind after the final bell.

⭐️ The highlight: Baluchi serves unapologetically bold Indian cuisine in the building’s former assembly hall.
