Last week Mr W was doing the dishes and this week, according to his Facebook status, he's being ironing his shirt which can only mean one thing - the W London Leicester Square is going at full throttle for its opening in four days time.

The website finally has some photographs uploaded and we have to agree that the public areas, at least, are looking Wonderful. The elevator bank (above) is blingtastic with more mirror balls than Studio 54 and we finally get a glimpse of the Union Jack-shaped shelves where the dishes are going:

Truth be told, we're not quite so jazzed about the bedrooms from these pictures. It's nice that they're calmer than the public areas, and we do like the full length windows and padded bathroom walls. Also, those Vivienne Westwood-ish cushions on the beds are fly and the blink-and-you'll-miss-it face on the wall? That's ace.

But those gold comforters are definitely not fly, and neither is that thing that looks like a shower curtain crossed with a sex pest's mac on the back wall. Also, they're so white! Let's hope they're a little less clinical in real life.

The hotel will throw a celeb-filled party the night before its opening, and if you fancy spicing up your Valentine's Day by staying in a bed that might possibly just have been vacated by friend-of-Mr-W David Gandy, rooms are still available for £269. There's also a 30 percent off opening deal, although it's not available on opening night.
