Tommy Campbell, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of White Bridge Capital, said, “We are proud to invest in Gencom’s acquisition of Rosewood London, one of the world’s premier luxury hotels. Gencom’s more than 40-year track record of owning and developing landmark hospitality assets makes it the ideal sponsor for a property of this caliber.

Located at 252 High Holborn in Central London, Rosewood London occupies a landmark 1912 building proximate to Covent Garden, the Royal Opera House, the British Museum and Somerset House. The hotel underwent a comprehensive transformation between 2011 and 2014, led by design firm Tony Chi Studios, and was ranked #56 Best Hotel in the World for 2026 by The 50. Its 308 rooms include 44 suites. The hotel’s seven Houses span up to 185 square meters and rank among the finest luxury accommodations in London, while the Manor House Suite offers the rare distinction of its own independent street entrance.
Rosewood London’s highly differentiated food and beverage offering is a defining feature of the property. The flagship Holborn Dining Room, which has its own independent street entrance, is celebrated for its modern British brasserie cuisine and a Belle Époque-inspired interior by Martin Brudnizki. Brudnizki also designed Scarfes Bar, one of the world’s award-winning bars, renowned for its theatrical cocktail creations and regular live jazz programming. With over 300 varieties, the Gin Bar holds one of London’s most extensive collections, while the acclaimed Mirror Room, the hotel’s all-day dining outlet, is best known for its artist-inspired Afternoon Tea experience.
“We see London as one of the world’s most attractive and enduring luxury hospitality markets, supported by a unique combination of international leisure demand, a strong corporate base, and year-round cultural and sporting events,” added Regina Garcia Handal, Co-Founder and Chief Investment Officer of White Bridge Capital. “Rosewood London’s exceptional location, between the West End and the City, positions the property, under Gencom’s leadership, to benefit from these demand drivers while giving our partners a long-term stake in a landmark asset in one of the world’s most established hotel markets.”
The transaction further strengthens White Bridge Capital’s strategic partnership with Gencom, following the recent acquisition of the InterContinental Miami.
