PAN PACIFIC LONDON

Just a short walk from Liverpool Street Station in the heart of the city, Pan Pacific London offers the perfect staycation right here in the capital.

A British outpost for the Singaporean hotel collection, the hotel is both peaceful and striking. Calming neutral tones, Asian touches, and relaxing bursts of colours in the form of soft furnishings, mean the rooms and suites provide a relaxing retreat from the hustle and bustle of the city.

Luxury Diptyque toiletries, expansive marble bathrooms, floor to ceiling windows, and large kingsized beds complete with a pillow menu make for the perfect stay. This is luxury at its best and you won't want to leave.

However with its rich 800-year history, the City of London has a wealth of museums, galleries, green spaces, bars, restaurants and shops, just waiting for you to discover, so make sure you step outside to play tourist within your own city.

From the iconic 17th-century St. Paul’s Cathedral, you can take in some of London’s most iconic attractions including Tower Bridge and The Tower of London before enjoying music and theatre in the Square Mile or the hidden gardens in the City to heaths, commons and ancient woodlands further afield.

With so many iconic landmarks surrounding the building, it comes as no surprise that the rooms and suites at Pan Pacific boast fantastic views of the nearby Gherkin building, and skyline beyond.

Back at the hotel, you can further unwind on the 1,083m² exclusive wellbeing floor.

Children are welcome and this only further boosts Pan Pacific's firm focus on family travel being of high importance. Alongside the wellbeing floor dedicated to family times, children can look forward to their own "Singa" the lion plush toy, age-appropriate activity packs and curated in-room bedtime books, whilst the in-house kids' concierge are happy to share their "What do to in East London" children’s guide, for a day on foot exploring London through the eyes of a child. If you have a pet, then you'll be pleased to know that Pan Pacific welcomes your well-behaved furry family members to explore the hotel in designated areas, with the exception of Ginger Lily, the Wellbeing Floor, meeting room floors and during afternoon tea service in The Orchid Lounge. Guide dogs are welcome in all areas. If food is your thing, then you won't be disappointed by the dining offerings within the hotel. From elegant Afternoon Tea in the Orchid Lounge, to the extravagant pastries at SHIOK! there is plenty to discover.

Showcasing a melting pot of cuisines from Singapore's many cultures, the hotel's main restaurant, Straits Kitchen is headed by Head Chef Jun Yung Ng who brings authentic Asian flavours to the table.

A real highlight of the week is the Asian-Inspired Sunday Roast. Featuring starters, a selection of Asian roasting meats and accompanying sides, as well as a grazing table of desserts from Executive Pastry Chef, Cherish Finden, the buffet roast is great for gathering families and friends alike.

Enjoy Shrimp Laksa, Hainanese Chicken, fresh vegetables Choy Sum and Pak Choi, and traditional favourites straight from the live carving station including; Crispy Pork Belly, Roasted Duck and Barbeque Pork. The buffet style means you can have as little or as much as you want!

The menu is available every Sunday between, 1.00pm - 3.00pm and costs just £50.00 per person for the roast and half a bottle of prosecco.

Breakfast is an equally decadent affair with Asian options of traditional Congee and Chicken curry mingling alongside Singaporean Kaya Toast and a traditional Full English and Continental buffet. Guests can also enjoy indulgent waffles, American pancakes and even Lobster Benedict.

With such a convenient location and impeccable eye for luxury, Pan Pacific London is one of the finest spots to stay in The City. And the added benefit of welcoming families and furry friends alike makes for an even more unique London staycation with as much to enjoy in the surrounding area as there is in the tranquil hotel itself.
