Six Senses London occupies The Whiteley in Bayswater. It brings the brand's wellness focus to a West London address close to Hyde Park and Notting Hill. The hotel has 109 rooms and suites. Selected categories have private terraces. Whiteley's Kitchen, Bar and Cafe provide three distinct settings, from morning coffee to evening drinks. Below the hotel, Six Senses Spa London extends across more than 2,300 square meters. The first Six Senses Place adds a social and wellness club for members and hotel guests.

The Whiteley gives the hotel a clear connection to its neighborhood. The former department store retains its Grade II-listed facade and grand staircase. Inside, curved forms, deep blue tones and warm wood refer to London's Art Deco heritage. Carefully framed light adds another link with the building's past. This is not a period recreation. AvroKO uses those references in a current way across the rooms and suites. Large windows, tailored joinery, living plants and limited pattern keep the look calm.
Hyde Park and Kensington Palace Gardens are nearby. Notting Hill, Portobello Road and the shops and restaurants of Westbourne Grove are also easy to reach. Bayswater and Queensway Underground stations are a short walk away. Paddington Station can be reached on foot, making the Heathrow Express and Elizabeth line practical options for airport journeys. The location suits travelers who want easy access to central London. At the same time, West London's parks, residential streets and neighborhood dining remain close at hand.
The room categories begin with the 30-square-meter Superior and 32-square-meter Deluxe. Both sleep two and offer courtyard or city outlooks. Connecting options are available, while Deluxe rooms sit on upper floors. Travelers who value outdoor space should compare the dedicated terrace categories, as not every room has one. The Terrace room combines 31 square meters indoors with a 19-square-meter private terrace. The 42-square-meter Premier Terrace adds 14 square meters outside and sleeps up to three guests.
Premier rooms provide 42 square meters without a terrace and have space for a third guest. Junior Suites increase the interior to 58 square meters. They add a dining nook and freestanding bathtub. The Corner Junior Suite is slightly smaller at 48 square meters, but it gains extra windows and an in-suite bar. Its terrace counterpart has 40 square meters indoors and a 36-square-meter terrace. The outdoor area is therefore almost as large as the room itself.
Among the larger one-bedroom choices, the Courtyard Suite offers 52 square meters. It has a separate living room and a courtyard view. The 71-square-meter Courtyard Terrace Suite opens onto a 15-square-meter terrace and sleeps three. Two terraces totaling 141 square meters wrap around the Notting Hill Suite's 74-square-meter interior. The Westbourne Suite pairs 77 square meters inside with 71 square meters outdoors. Both have separate living rooms and connecting options. Each sleeps two before any connected room is added.
The two-bedroom Whiteley Suite is the most complete residential-style option in the hotel's bookable inventory. Inside are 166 square meters. Beyond the doors, a 126-square-meter terrace is arranged for dining and relaxing. Two bedrooms, two bathrooms and an open living area give families or private groups room to follow different routines. A kitchen, bar and dining table support meals in the suite. It sleeps four and has connecting options. Any wider layout should be confirmed directly rather than assumed.
The wider Whiteley also contains 14 Six Senses branded residences. These serviced private homes are distinct from the hotel's standard accommodation. Hotel guests planning a longer stay should therefore focus on the suites with separate living rooms, large terraces or more than one bedroom. Connecting rooms can sleep up to six guests, subject to the combination available. Accessible rooms are offered as well.
Whiteley's Kitchen takes a vegetable-led approach to seasonal British ingredients. Fire-led cooking, preservation and a dedicated fermentation lab shape dishes made for sharing. These methods give the restaurant a clear point of view without making it overly formal. A chef's table brings guests closer to the kitchen. The restaurant serves as the main dining room. In-room dining covers meals in the privacy of a room or suite.
Whiteley's Bar has its own role, moving from classic cocktails to inventive infusions and natural wines. Whiteley's Cafe is the most casual of the three. It pairs small-batch coffee with farmhouse-style bakes and seasonal treats. Together, the venues let guests move through the day without repeating the same atmosphere. They also feel rooted in Bayswater rather than like interchangeable hotel outlets. That matters in a city where the neighborhood is part of the reason to stay.
Six Senses Spa London is a defining part of the hotel rather than a compact urban treatment area. More than 2,300 square meters of wellness space occupy one level beneath the property. The design takes cues from an old Underground station. Corridors, bridges and reflective water create a clear shift from the city above. Treatment spaces sit beside rooms for use before and after a session. A Turkish hammam, bio sauna, relaxation areas, cryotherapy and flotation widen the choice.
The 20-meter indoor swimming pool is joined by magnesium and cold plunge pools. A biohack area adds compression and other tools focused on recovery. At the Alchemy Bar, seasonal British plants meet a current take on European herbal practice. Guests can also explore programs focused on sleep, yoga, detox or fitness. This range works for a swim between meetings or a single treatment. It can also support a more structured wellness plan over several days.
Fitness has received comparable attention. The 325-square-meter fitness area is supported by movement studios. A separate space is used for yoga, meditation and other sessions. Personal training adds a guided option. Earth Lab brings in practical work around sustainability. This hands-on element gives the hotel's wellness approach a wider scope than treatments and exercise alone.
Families should begin by choosing the room layout with care. Premier and Premier Terrace rooms, along with several suites, can sleep three. Connecting arrangements can extend that number to six. The Whiteley Suite provides two bedrooms and shared living space in one accommodation. Cots are available on request. Nanny and babysitting services, children's classes, games, activities and Earth Lab experiences add practical support. Families should confirm the child access rules for the spa, pools and Six Senses Place before their stay.
For visits of more than a few nights, a separate living room or outdoor space may matter more than total floor area. The Courtyard Suite creates a useful divide between sleeping and daytime use. The Notting Hill and Westbourne suites add terraces large enough to work as another living area. The Whiteley Suite supports shared meals and different schedules. In-room dining also makes these categories easier to use as a London base.
Six Senses Place is the property's social and wellness members' club. Its program centers on movement, conversation, learning and shared experiences. It welcomes members and hotel guests, while residents also have club access. The exact privileges for each group should be confirmed rather than assumed. For hotel guests, Place adds somewhere to spend time beyond the room, restaurant and spa. That extra setting is especially useful during a longer stay.
AvroKO's Art Deco-inspired interiors make time inside the hotel part of London's design story, appealing to guests who value distinctive surroundings.
At Whiteley's Bar, cocktails with or without alcohol give companions with different drinking preferences more choice for an evening together.
A Turkish hammam and flotation pod give spa-focused travelers alternatives to a massage, adding variety to wellness time during a city stay.
1 REDAN PLACE LONDON W2 4SA GB UNITED KINGDOM
Whiteley's Kitchen serves modern, produce-led British food from breakfast through dinner. Whiteley's Bar focuses on seasonal cocktails, house-made ferments and natural wines, while Whiteley's Cafe offers small-batch coffee, pastries and seasonal sweets. Together they form one connected neighbourhood dining collection inside The Whiteley.
Breakfast is served at Whiteley's Kitchen from 7am to 10:30am. Its vegetable-led menu uses seasonal British produce and techniques including fermentation, preservation and fire cooking. Whiteley's Cafe provides coffee, farmhouse-style bakes and lighter treats, while in-room dining offers another breakfast setting.
Six Senses Spa London spans more than 2,300 square metres beneath the hotel. It contains 13 treatment rooms, a Turkish hammam, flotation pod, cryotherapy, bio sauna, biohacking facilities, movement studios and a 325-square-metre fitness suite. The gym operates 24 hours, with staffed supervision during daytime hours.
Yes. The underground wellness floor contains a 20-metre indoor swimming pool, a magnesium plunge pool and a separate cold plunge. The magnesium pool is presented as the first of its kind in a London hotel, designed to support muscular recovery and nervous-system regulation alongside the main swimming pool.
The Whiteley Suite spans 292 square metres in total and accommodates four guests in two emperor-bed rooms. Its 166-square-metre interior contains an open living area, kitchen, bar and dining table for eight, while the 126-square-metre terrace runs the length of the suite and provides broad city views.
