London is not suffering from a lack of appealing hotel rooms, but the King’s Lodge at The Connaught is one of a kind. This new suite, designed by the hotel’s interior designer Guy Oliver, is a collaboration with Turquoise Mountain, King Charles III’s nonprofit organization that supports artisans in Afghanistan, India, and across the Levant. Tucked underneath the eaves of the hotel’s fifth floor, it’s decorated with handwoven carpets from Lahore, Mogul textiles, and walnut jali fretwork, an Afghan craft used to connect pieces of woodwork. Those fortunate enough to check in will be whisked away from the bustling streets of Mayfair—at least metaphorically—and since a portion of the proceeds from its bookings is directed to Turquoise Mountain, there’s a very good reason to indulge. —Ashley Baker
