With its spectacular riverfront views, warm and friendly service, and 142 luxurious rooms, The Four Seasons Hotel in Canary Wharf is a superb place to stay. Adding even further allure is Quadrato, their sleek and stylish Italian restaurant, where it becomes impossible not to let the quiet elegance and freshly prepared delicious fare create a sense of ease and calm within you. The decor is impressive but not overwhelming and in summer months the terrace is opened out for guests to enjoy the manicured gardens by the River Thames.

The restaurant follows the cuisine of North Italy, bringing seasonal delicacies along with traditional favourites, so typically dinner could begin with grilled tiger prawns with halloumi cheese and peach salad. If pasta is what you want, then there's an excellent mix and match option where you can choose whether you want fusilli with Bolognese sauce, gnocchi with clams and mussels or vice versa. To finish, there's a refreshing citrus meringue with raspberry granite.
