Woburn Place Dining Room

You're in Bloomsbury, steps from the British Museum and the literary ghosts of Russell Square, when you slip into this dining room at the Hilton London Euston. It's the kind of place that works equally well for a proper business lunch or when you've got relatives visiting and want somewhere reliable without pretension. The kitchen does fusion cooking—think global influences meeting contemporary plating—which reads more approachable than experimental. Service is attentive in that professional way that doesn't hover, and the room itself is clean-lined and grown-up without feeling stuffy.
