Conde Nast Traveller has named the unopened Haymarket Hotel in London as one of the world's finest new establishments. They claim the criteria doesn't have to include actually being an opened, servicing hotel---just "style and talent to see off even the toughest competition."

The hotel also made the Times of London's list of the World's Hotttest Hotels last month, so this place had better be good when it opens on May 1.

Built in three Georgian houses next to the Theatre Royal, it has 50 bedrooms and three suites as well as a fivebedroom villa.

The owners Tim and Kit Kemp of Firmdale Hotels want the place to be British but not "terribly British" and still have a contemporary edge. The hotel will also include a public bar and an Italian restaurant. And of course, the pool with "nightclub" lighting. A double room will cost from £245 a night while a two-bedroom suite will go for around £2,250.
