Welcome
ANNOUNCEMENT
40 Winks very sadly closed its doors permanently in 2021 as a result of the global pandemic.
We are very proud of what we achieved over the twelve years we were open, and are eternally grateful to everyone who supported us during that time, including our amazing team and our fabulous guests.
Thank you!
In memoriam
40 Winks is based in hip and trendy East London.
The house was built in 1717, making it one of the oldest privately owned properties in London. It has a very glamorous history. For more than a decade, it was one of the country's most popular fashion and celebrity locations, playing host to hundreds of major advertising campaigns and high profile editorial shoots. So many photographers, stylists and models kept asking if they could stay here that we came up with the idea of '40 Winks'. We opened our doors in 2009, somewhat cheekily describing ourselves as the world’s first ‘micro boutique hotel’ (we only have two guest rooms). Despite our bijou size, we have achieved an almost mythical status over the last twelve years, attracting thousands of pages of press, winning several awards, and, most importantly, making a lot of people very happy. Just click on Reviews to understand what all the fuss is about.
From the beginning, our mission was always a very simple one - to offer an antidote to the bland uniformity of most hotel chains by creating something deliriously seductive, memorable and enchanting, substituting the ordinary with the extraordinary.
Staying here is about much more than having a comfortable bed to sleep in or a place to store your luggage, it is an immersive experience, an invitation to lose yourself in another more fabulous, more magical world. We have tried to think of everything you might need to know, providing information on things like prices, how to book, and even some of our famous events, so please feel free have a good rummage around the website. If there is anything we have overlooked, please don’t be shy - just drop us an email or give us a call.
