Hotels

Four Seasons

The views from this glamorous Park Lane property are best experienced from the rooftop spa. The decor is decadent with flattering lighting and a pink grand piano. Look out for the bathroom toiletries by Burlington Arcade perfumer Roja Dove.

The Wellesley

A luxury hotel on a boutique scale, guests can expect butler service and a Rolls Royce. The bar is an homage to the site’s past life as a jazz venue, while its cigar humidor is one of the largest in the world.

The Connaught

A study in refined luxury with individual suites, Michelin-starred restaurants and an award-winning cocktail bar. Don’t forget to explore the Aman Spa and its stunning black granite swimming pool.

Claridge’s

The Art Deco landmark’s buzzing lobby and famous Blue Bar are popular spaces to see and be seen. Look out for its Christmas trees, which are designed by different fashion creators each year.

Corinthia Hotel London

Serene, well-designed suites, just moments from the Thames. The former government building that was once a temporary home to MI6 now houses a Tom Kerridge restaurant and a four-floor ESPA spa.

The Ritz

The Ritz occupies an entire block of Piccadilly, with the neoclassical frontage designed to evoke Paris’s Rue de Rivoli. It is particularly well known for afternoon tea in its Palm Court.
