Treehouse London — Photo by SH Hotels & Resorts

Treehouse London, Sternlicht's newest and most eagerly anticipated hotel brand, is set to open on Langham Place in Marylebone—one of London's most vibrant neighborhoods. Designed to appeal to the child in all of us, Treehouse is playful, curious, rustic and nostalgic, inspired by simple joys. The hotel will feature Toca Madera, an acclaimed Mexican restaurant and the spectacular rooftop bar "The Nest," with 360-degree views of central London. SH Hotels & Resorts, an affiliate of global private investment firm Starwood Capital Group, will operate the hotel.

Treehouse London is fun! Every detail is imagined through the carefree, optimistic lens of childhood and balanced with a distinctly modern sensibility. The hotel features an abundance of unique surprises, charming amenities and thoughtful programming: cozy guest rooms with cuckoo clocks and sleeping bag throws, resident horticulturalists who give tours of local gardens, book clubs and poetry slams. The Treehouse app connects guests to neighborhood favorites curated by local team members. Backyard, our coffee/wine bar that meets you on entry, feels like an actual treehouse, with exposed wood and branches.

Treehouse London also prides itself on its sustainable initiatives. With reclaimed wood and exposed rafters, Treehouse certainly looks wild and woody. But the hotel itself strives to optimize eco-conscious operations within its city setting. It has developed a robust composting and recycling program, and is committed to reducing single-use plastics throughout all its operations. Every guest room is outfitted with organic cotton sheets, as well as locally-sourced bath and other products.

Treehouse is also the place to eat. It's home to L.A. hotspot Toca Madera, the go-to destination for reimaged traditional Mexican cuisine taking a modern approach, coveted by Hollywood celebs and visitors. Toca Madera, which aptly translates to "knock on wood," pairs bold flavors with organic ingredients. The food is complemented by Toca Madera's "farm-to-glass" mixology program. A shared-plate menu, friendly to all palates, creates a relaxed energy that's all about community.

Treehouse London will feature 95 guest rooms, including 15 suites. The check-in counter on the 15th floor features a wooden mosaic with festoon lighting, bringing the outdoors from roots to canopy.

Promising to be the hotel's most talked about feature is The Nest, a photo shoot-worthy rooftop bar with spectacular 360-degree skyline views of London. The bar and lounge also feature a tandem swing set, areas for cozying up in blankets and viewing the cityscape, and stylish spots for catching up over cocktails and small bites. (Even the lucky DJ gets in on the action, spinning in his own treehouse fort.)
