ME London Is Now Truly, Officially, Open
We’ve kept you up to date on ME London on its long journey from when we first heard about it, through fires, delays, its Aura Managers, and the view from the roof, all the way to the much-delayed soft launch.
Today, March 1, is a brand new day however as ME London really, truly, opens its doors. Check out that lobby above, stepping into which, given the pitch black corridors (below), we likened to floating out into space, especially with the galaxy-like video projections on the angular walls at the time.

Huzzah! ME London Is Actually Open!
ME London didn't make its planned July opening, nor did it open in September, November or December but the wait is now over as the hotel is taking reservations and accepting real guests.
We found a standard Aura room open later this week for £270 ($428) a night. Our London contributor, JasonD also found four reviews on TripAdvisor.
All of the reviews are insanely positive with two being about the bar and restaurant options (the Radio rooftop, the STK eatery and Cucina Aselina are fully open for business), one review in French and another review praising the hotel design and recommending travelers pick a room as high up as possible to get views of the Thames.
While the price is right and the nightlife options are in full swing, the hotel is still in a soft-opening phase so there may still be some kinks to work out. Word is a full opening is expected in March but we'll be sure to update you when that's finalized.
'Til then, enjoy your time with ME.
