The OWO is a landmark Grade II*-listed Edwardian baroque building situated in the heart of London on Whitehall and opposite Horse Guards. Formerly home to the Ministry of Defence, the building was once the office of great statesmen such as Winston Churchill and Lord Haldane and was the inspiration for writer Ian Fleming for his James Bond 007 spy stories.
The OWO has been meticulously brought back to life to create a new destination for central London, moments from the Royal Park of St. James’s, Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey, Houses of Parliament, and Downing Street, all of which are a short walk away.
Originally built from 1886 – 1906 for the Ministry of Defence this Grade II*listed Edwardian masterpiece in the Baroque style has undergone a forensic restoration costing £1.4bn and now provides for 85 private residences serviced by a 120 room 5 star Raffles hotel and 12 bars and restaurants. Constructed from 25 million bricks and 26,000 tons of stone and covering some 71,000 sqm in size the scale of ambition by the owners the Hinduja Group is formidable. Nestled in the heart of Whitehall, these hallowed halls once hosted luminaries like Winston Churchill, Lord Haldane, and T. E. Lawrence. They also played a role in the creation of the legendary James Bond, thanks to Ian Fleming's inspiration - a rich history that is truly unparalleled.
