Lavish marble detailing, brass finishing and bold patterns decorate the hotel rooms and capture the spirit of the glitz and glamour associated with the 1970s. Each room also features a mini bar stocked with the [house-made cocktails](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/deja-vu-cocktail-menu). The bathrooms are done in a pastel-pink and a fountain-shaped countertop serves as an extravagant focus.

The in-house restaurant is run by [Michelin](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gravity-theory-ciders) star chef Ollie Dabbous who is known as an emerging game-changer within the London food scene.
