The Waldorf Hilton has an illustrious history dating back almost a century. Since its opening in 1908, the Waldorf has dominated the Aldwych skyline and is a living tribute to its Edwardian creators. Today, it is a Grade II listed building, a jewel of Aldwych. The hotel’s 58-metre (190-feet) frontage boasts 8 granite columns and balustrades, as well as 2 roof domes. There are 2 famous theatres located on the hotel's corners: Novello Theatre on the west wing and the Aldwych Theatre on the east wing.
In the past few years the hotel has undergone an extensive refurbishment programme to restore the property to its former glory, complemented by a contemporary feel and the latest technology for the modern-day guest.
The Waldorf Hilton is proud to be celebrating its 100-year anniversary in 2008 and thrilled to welcome guests to this magnificent building during such a special time.
Location
The Waldorf is located in London’s West End on Aldwych, next to Covent Garden with Long Acre, Victoria Embankment (next to the River Thames) and the Strand leading to Trafalgar Square.
Covent Garden (a 5-minute walk) is colourful and busy, with famous theatres and the latest dazzling shows; exclusive boutiques on the piazza, and the Royal Opera House.
London’s most famous square, Trafalgar Square, is nearby and home to the 56-metre (185-feet) tall Nelson’s Column and the National Portrait Gallery, with over 10,000 pieces in its collection.
Across the Aldwych guests can find Somerset House, a Renaissance-style palace with a fabulous courtyard hosting music concerts and art exhibitions.
Within close proximity of the hotel are also St Paul’s and Westminster cathedrals, the Royal Courts of Justice and the Southbank (on the south side of the River Thames, walking distance over Waterloo bridge) with galleries, the National Theatre and the British Film Institute.
Rooms
Offering some of the best luxury hotel rooms to be found in London’s West End, all Waldorf Hilton rooms are equipped with the latest technology and come in 2 distinct styles: contemporary and design. Contemporary rooms retain some selected historic features, whereas the design concept provides superb accommodation combined with an immaculate environment, creating a minimalist, clutter-free feel.
All rooms feature exclusive Ligne Roset beds (with a luxury mohair throw), 2 telephone lines, a wall-mounted plasma-screen TV, lever door handle, climate-controlled air conditioning, rechargeable in-room laptop safe, original freestanding Edwardian chrome and marble wash-stand (in contemporary rooms), a bespoke cutting-edge wash-stand with ceramic sit-on basin (in design rooms), power jet or rain drop showers, Crabree and Evelyn toiletries, and an ergonomically designed desk chair.
The ceiling pendant, with flexible silver branches supporting an array of individually lit shades, can be configured differently in each room.

Dining
The Waldorf's restaurant, Homage, is designed to be relaxed, glamorous and with its unique position on the Aldwych, a little theatrical. Homage serves classical dishes, as well as contemporary favourites. The wine list is predominantly old-world European and, like the food, it is both accessible and affordable.
The Homage Grand Salon restaurant features Louis XVI-style decor, with original Ionic columns and a walk-in wine cabinet.
Homage Patisserie is classic and sophisticated with wood-panelled walls and period furniture. Waldorf's renowned afternoon teas, with freshly made cakes, scones and vienoisserie prepared daily by Waldorf’s executive chef patissier, can be enjoyed there.
The Homage Bar, the trendy and avant-garde addition to London's night-life scene, serves signature gin-based cocktails, as well as all the classics.
