A note Dear readers,
Welcome to the December edition of Waterfront, your fi rst stop for the fi nest luxury Christmas gift suggestions for the whole family. Here at Waterfront HQ we’re already tingling with Christmas excitement and brimming with ideas for the festive season. We’ve taken a Christmas shopping trip to London, with a stay at the luxurious Wyndham Grand Hotel in Chelsea Harbour. Enamoured with the enticing window displays, we feature the seasonal eff orts of some of the world’s most prestigious department stores. We marvel at the luxury Christmas tree collection displayed at London’s Goring Hotel, in partnership with a selection of leading British brands. We’ve also off ered up the best of the region’s festive events and previewed Henry V, starring Jude Law, at the Noël Coward T eatre in London’s West End. To complete the off er in the capital, we sample fi ne French cuisine at Boulestin in St James’s and look forward to the opening of prohibition era- themed bar and restaurant Steam & Rye with entrepreneur Nick House. If you’d prefer to escape the winter blues, we’ve also brought you exotic destinations from around the world to feast your eyes upon. We venture to the ancient city of Jerusalem and take in the sumptuous W Retreat & Spa in the Maldives. T ere’s also an interview with tanning expert to the stars James Read,
a profi le of Longchamp’s premier UK store off ering and the latest high fashion trends. We hope you enjoy and have a very merry Christmas.
