Morning
A quiet breakfast service in the ground-floor dining room, followed by easy access to Mayfair's galleries and Green Park for a morning walk.
The building began life as a private Mayfair townhouse before its ground floor was reimagined in the late 1920s, an era when London's West End was filling with supper clubs, dance floors and after-dark hospitality. The stone facade, iron balconies and tall sash windows have been preserved through several careful renovations, while the interior has been steadily modernised for contemporary stays.
Inside, the hotel keeps much of that original character: high ceilings, decorative cornicing and a grand staircase that still anchors the lobby. Recent refurbishments have focused on lighting, comfort and technology rather than altering the historic bones of the building.
The hotel sits on a quiet residential street a short walk from Park Lane, within easy reach of Mayfair's private art galleries, tailoring houses and some of London's best-known garden squares. It's a part of the city known for being discreet rather than loud — no flashing signage, just brass door plates and porticoed entrances.
Green Park and Hyde Park are both within a fifteen-minute walk, making the area popular for a daytime stroll before an evening at the hotel. Bond Street's shopping streets are close by too, along with a concentration of small, well-regarded restaurants tucked along the surrounding mews.
The rhythm of a stay tends to follow a familiar shape — quiet mornings, an afternoon exploring Mayfair, and an evening that unfolds slowly across the hotel's dining rooms and lounge.

Guests often use the afternoon to explore Bond Street shopping or simply relax in the lobby lounge with a pot of tea before the evening begins.
Dinner in the main restaurant, a drink at the cocktail bar, and for guests aged 18 and over, time on the gaming floor upstairs.
There is no illuminated signage on the exterior. The hotel prefers a quiet brass plaque, in keeping with the residential street it occupies — a house style that carries through to the service, which is attentive without being intrusive.
Few buildings in the area have held onto both their residential elegance and a licensed gaming lounge for so long. It gives the hotel an unusual identity: part townhouse, part supper club, part members' lounge.
