It's possible that the word "traditional" will make you want to put on your leopard print loafers and run for the hills, but Malmaison might be the place for you. We can assist you in making your wedding or civil ceremony as big as you want it to be by providing the perfect combination of beautiful, unconventional spaces to hold your ceremony, as well as a mission to make those spaces uniquely yours. Some people may be fine with a stuffy reception room and a half-bottle of wine per person, but we have our own way of doing things. Creative canapés, master mixologists, eccentric interiors... everyone's love story is unique, and we're here to celebrate that in everything that we do at The Love Story. Malmaison are considered the forefathers of the modern metropolitan boutique hotel, with an emphasis on style and sophistication. We believe that food and drink are integral to the character of each Malmaison hotel; our bars and brasseries are well-known destinations in their respective communities. Malmaison is a sophisticated, flirty, and sexy retreat. It's both inviting and seductive. Our customers are made to feel special. They're all celebrities in our eyes, and they all deserve to be treated like celebrities. Our locations also distinguish us from other hotels in the United Kingdom. A converted church, a former prison, a hospital, or even a Royal Mail sorting office are all possibilities for guests to stay in while visiting London.
