Cutting-edge luxury hotel to open in London

Claiming to be the most high-tech hotel in London when it opens, the 40 bedroom Eccleston?Square Hotel will welcome its first guests in April next year.

Its Georgian façade will house what Architects Woods Bagot believes will be the most state-of-the-art bedrooms in the capital.

Advanced facilities include a fingertip control pad for room lighting, curtains, TV, soundtrack and electronic wake-up and bedtime settings.

Guests can also access Hasten’s Mind Spa TV, fitness and exercise menus, including in-room massage and personal trainers.

Other touches include 46” 3D LED TVs, HD Movie and 3D channels, 3D Blue Ray DVD players, iPod docks, free super-fast WiFi and free London calls.

Beds, sourced from Swedish manufacturer Hastens, costs £12,000 and are electronically adjustable and feature massage programmes.

The bathrooms have smart glass walls that turn opaque at a flick of a switch, plus a TV incorporated into the heated mirror.

The wet room features a rainfall shower, high-pressure massage and aromatherapy products and the meeting and events rooms have a 3D media wall and video conferencing.
