If there's one thing you only learn as an adult, it's that being naughty is way more fun than being nice (sorry Santa). This is more so when you're in a hotel room. No clue why though. Ahem. So, if you fancy a little slap 'n' tickle in Soho or hanky panky in Hoxton, you've come to the right place. No judgment here. 

For some, the idea alone of a hotel room tips the sexy scale. But it's these places with added extras that will take your sex life from run-of-the-mill missionary to a full-on wild workout. Phew. So save the romantic hotels in London for another time and turn up the heat and get steamy with our selection of the best naughty hotels in the capital. Thank us later. 

Updated 2025: The Bulgari and Broadwick hotel have made the list – take a cheeky peek below to find out why...

Wanna know how to treat your partner right? Take inspo from the staff at Bulgari: expect flawless service with genuine smiles all round – and access to a butler if you're staying in a suite. The attentive team is just the start when it comes to this hotel's stand-out qualities. The deep tones add to its luxurious feel and sex appeal. The all-black marble bathrooms are particularly seductive, and there are five secret subterranean floors offering ample places to fool around (within reason - they are public spaces after all) including a pool, two-floor spa, cocktail bar and cinema room. 

Mood? The brand's sultry snake symbol says it all. 
Location perks? Knightsbridge epitomises London's swanky side. And area so fancy you won't have to worry about bumping into anyone you know and having to explain why you've ditched the kids for the weekend. You've also come to the right place for a luxury shopping spree. 
Budget range? Ever-so-slightly jaw dropping.

Is there a naughtier district than Soho? If you want to stay in the vicinity of debauchery while also keeping a safe distance from it, Broadwick offers a deluxe experience that still encapsultes Soho's sensual side. The Nook – a private low-lit guest lounge – is sure to get you in the mood; the combo of champagne, whimsical wallpaper and smooth tunes flowing from the record player may just send you into a frenzy, but whatever you do, don't miss your res at on-site Italian restaurant Dear Jackie. If the dark red colour scheme isn't enough to get you hot under the collar, people who believe in aphrodisiacs may want to order one of the truffle dishes. 

Mood? Dangerously playful. 
Location perks? In the heart of Soho with plenty of bars providing dark corners and addictive cocktails. 
Budget range? Not the best, not the worst.

The several interconnecting townhouses that make up this seriously romantic hotel look rather different today than they would have in 1837 when Mr and Mrs Brown opened the hotel, but we think the far-sighted couple would approve of the Rocco Forte touches here, particularly in the Donovan Bar. This darkly sexy space is filled with brooding 1960s works by the celebrated photographer – and the bar's namesake – Terence Donovan. Make for the 'naughty corner' filled with his more risqué black and white shots and let the photos and space work their desired magic.

Mood? Stunning architecture.
Location perks? Wedged between Regent Street and Piccadilly.
Budget range? Spenny AF.

Giving you the fantasy of an upmarket 1970s porno, Sanctum's Junior Suite is scoring very high on the sexy scale. Decked out in black and silver, the rooms here come finished with mirrors everywhere, including (of course) opposite the bed. Then there’s the freestanding bath, which sits at the foot of the bed and comes flanked by a mirrored column and uplit by shimmering pebbles. If that’s not doing it for you, maybe the glittering pink palace Junior Deluxe Suite would be more up your street. Here, you’ll find a bigger space with a separate sitting room and silk in abundance.

Mood? Dreamy interiors. 
Location perks? In the heart of London's West End.
Budget range? On the high-end.

Secrets are sexy – and South Place Hotel has two up its sleeve. To get things hotting up, head to the Secret Garden rooftop for a few cheeky drinks, then go down to the Prohibition-inspired speakeasy Le Chiffre, named after the Bond villain. You’ll be happy to know that all rooms come with at least a king-size bed and baths big enough for two, but if you save up for Suite 610 you’ll be in for a real treat. This huge, open-plan room has a glass-sided bath (as well as a separate marble en suite). Ooh, la la.

Mood? Eclectic vibes. 
Location perks? Walking distance from Liverpool Street station.
Budget range? Very affordable.

You know the Shangri-La. It’s the hotel in that massive building made of glass. The rooms are just as sleek, with the body-contouring-technology 'Shangri-La Bed' and plush bathrooms with robes and Acqua di Parma toiletries. There are even floor-to-ceiling windows, which offer unparalleled views of the city. Plus, there's nothing naughtier than adding a spot of voyeurism to your flirtations and The Shard's windows provide that opportunity in spades. 

Mood? Big city life.
Location perks? Next-level views over the city of London.
Budget range? As pricey as you'd expect.

This charming hotel may seem unassuming at first, with good rates, free Wi-Fi and a confusing name – the whole shebang – but it has one special feature that makes it perfect for whirlwind romances: there is a day-stay option. Check-in at 10am, check out at 4pm. It’s probably there for photo shoots or to give hurried business folk somewhere to set up base for the day, but let’s not pretend you can’t find a much, much better use for it – especially if you book a Shoebox room, which the website describes as "ideal for one or for two, but be prepared to get up close and personal."

Mood? Bespoke design. 
Location perks? Super central, with great transport links.
Budget range? Surprisingly affordable.

  • Marylebone

Keeping each other cosy in front of a fireplace is hands down the classiest of romantic activities. But how could you top that? Doing it under the stars, of course. The Marylebone offers just that with their Terrace Suites, which are spacious, luxurious rooms with stunning views across the city. They also have fireplaces on their private, wood-panelled terraces. If the weather isn't playing ball (when does it?) you'll be pleased to know the windows and roof are fully retractable. The suites also come with a personal mixologist, who will come and kick start your evening of wooing with a specially-made cocktail each.

Mood? Dreamy interiors. 
Location perks? With Selfridge's on your doorstep, what's not to love?
Budget range? A great variety of options.
