London’s The Westbury to become St Regis property – Business Traveller


An extension to the rear of the property will create “enhanced public areas”, and the building’s facade and drop-off area will be renovated.

The Polo Bar will be retained, and there are plans for a signature restaurant, speakeasy jazz bar, fitness centre and spa.

There are currently no St Regis properties in London – The Lanesborough previously traded under the brand, but was reflagged under the Oetker Collection in 2015.
