Once home to the Lords, Ladies and Gentlemen of the Royal Court, this exclusive hotel still resonates with echoes of history reaching back four hundred years to the time of Shakespeare and Queen Elizabeth I. Quilon reflects the political and regal connections as one of the few restaurants with an exclusive Division Bell – summoning Members of Parliament to the Division Lobbies. J Wellness Circle spa is an urban retreat with the philosophy inherently rooted in India's rich heritage of wellness, inspired the fabled lifestyle of Indian Royalty and the healing therapies that embrace Indian spirituality.
