WHY IT RATES: Sporting a smooth, Japanese-influenced minimalist aesthetic offset by pops of bold, contemporary art, the Nobu Hotel London Portman Square is soon to become Nobu Hospitality’s second signature hotel property in the U.K. capital. Guests who are eager to be among the first to experience it can begin booking before the hotel officially opens this summer. — Laurie Baratti, TravelPulse Associate Writer
