Eating Out
Some of the best restaurants in Aldwych are located in the exclusive 5 star hotels. One of which is Homage at the Waldorf Hilton (22 The Aldwych, WC2B 4DD), a prestige Mediterranean restaurant located in one of the hotel’s ballrooms. The Savoy Hotel also includes one of London’s most iconic restaurants, the Savoy Grill (The Strand, WC2R 0EU), established in 1889, and recently re-opened under Chef Patron Stuart Gillies, of Gordon Ramsay Holdings. However, if you are looking for a slightly more moderately priced restaurant, Christopher’s American Grill and Martini Bar (18 Wellington Street, WC2E 7DD) is a top choice.

The Lobby Bar at One Aldwych Hotel (WC2B 4BZ) was voted one of the top 5 bars in the world by the Telegraph newspaper, and its hardly surprising with a long list of 63 cocktails to choose from.

The list of attractions really is endless – from Buckingham Palace (SW1A 1AA) and Trafalgar Square (WC2N 5DY), to Somerset House (The Strand, WC2R 1LA) and the London Transport Museum (39 Wellington Street, WC2E 7BB).
