Christmas shopping need not be a stressful experience, especially when combined with a festive manicure, muscle-melting massage or fragrant afternoon tea.
Regent Street Refuge: Hotel Café Royal
It may be hard to believe that anywhere near Piccadilly Circus could ever been described as peaceful, but that is exactly what Hotel Café Royal is; elegant, refined and most importantly, relaxing. Plus, its proximity to Regent Street, Oxford Circus and Soho make it the perfect pitstop during a day's Christmas shopping. Not to be missed is the Diptyque Afternoon Tea; a multi-sensory experience that translates the fragrance brand's most popular perfumes into delicate and delicious flavours. If you're still not fully recuperated, the hotel's Akasha Spa will shake off any residual stress in a matter of moments.
The Soho Sanctuary: Salon 64
Salon 64 is perfect to escape the crowds and has been designed purely for this reason. Created to be a salon hub, you are welcome to socialise, work or combine both with an indulging beauty treatment. There’s a Vagabond coffee bar, style bar, fire pits with built-in work and vanity stations and even a private vault for total seclusion.
Oxford Street Retreat: DryBy
If you’re in need of a party blow dry or a festive manicure whilst also ticking off some central London Christmas purchases, head to DryBy for a pampering pit stop. The luxury beauty destination offers nail and hair services where you can take a break with a glass of champagne whilst being close to the festive action just off Oxford Street.
