L’oscar is a turn-of-the-century architectural gem, created from a Baroque-style, Grade II listed former church, now extravagantly restored by world leading decorateur, Jacques Garcia.
Set near Covent Garden and the centre of a thriving mix of shops, restaurants, and bars that form part of the city’s coolest high-end district.
True to his style, the Frenchman lent the rooms opulence and, above all, atmosphere with a keen sense of history and attention to detail. The name L’oscar pays tribute to the world-famous writer Oscar Wilde. It ties into the literary and history of the area, as it was home to a group of associated writers, philosophers and artists including Virginia Woolf, E.M Forster and Lytton Strachey, known as the ‘Bloomsbury Set’.
This boutique hotel has 39 spacious rooms. From the Superior Room to the L’oscar Suite, each room is delightfully individual, with extravagant styling, high ceilings, large windows, and a wealth of original detail, all personalized and curated by Garcia’s opulent design. Settle into your Icelandic duck feather pillows on the luxe king-size beds or float around your room and enjoy the unique charm with feature fireplaces and state-of-the-art amenities.
Located on the ground floor, L’oscar Restaurant is the bustling heart of the hotel, with its illuminated onyx bar and décor inspired by the world’s oldest Café in Venice, with walls and ceilings lined with mirrors, gilded panels and stunning original art.
L’oscar offers all the sophistication and charm of a Parisian Café. A food lover’s lair, it is the place to go for a delectable breakfast, bistrostyle lunch, traditional Afternoon Tea, an intimate evening dinner, or simply for a late-night dessert and a soothing glass of wine from Château La Mascaronne or Les Pagodes de Cos.
