History and Grandeur at The OWO

Appreciating the extraordinary history of The OWO deepens the experience of staying at Raffles London's landmark hotel. The building — the Old War Office — is one of the most storied addresses in Britain. Completed in 1906, this magnificent Edwardian Baroque edifice served for most of the twentieth century as the nerve centre of British military affairs, its warren of corridors and grand rooms occupied by the War Office and later the Ministry of Defence. Within these walls, some of the most consequential decisions in modern history were taken: Winston Churchill worked here during both World Wars, and the building has associations with figures from Lord Kitchener to the intelligence services — it's even said to have inspired elements of the James Bond stories, its author Ian Fleming having worked in naval intelligence. After decades of official use and a period of vacancy, the building underwent a painstaking, years-long restoration to transform it into Raffles London at The OWO, a hotel of exceptional luxury that preserves and celebrates its heritage — the grand staircases, ornate detailing and sense of history retained and enhanced, now complemented by world-class restaurants, a spa, bars and sumptuous rooms. Its position on Whitehall could hardly be more central to historic London, steps from Horse Guards Parade, Downing Street, the Cenotaph, St James's Park and Westminster, with the West End close by. Staying here is to sleep within genuine history at the pinnacle of modern luxury. Understanding the building's remarkable past — from the corridors of military power to a landmark Raffles hotel — shows why arriving in fitting style, via a discreet fixed-price transfer, so suits the occasion.
