The 14 Best Hotels in Mayfair, London (2025)

Mayfair is one of London's most well to do areas; situated between the green sprawl of Hyde Park and the high-end retailers of Bond Street. It’s a great location if you’re coming to London to shop, see a show, eat well and visit the museums. This is an exclusive neighbourhood and, with that, comes some of London's finest hotels. Here you can expect impeccable service standards (some even offer a private butler service), wonderfully exclusive bars and restaurants popular with London’s A-List crowd, and grand historic settings. Our hotel experts have compiled a collection of the best hotels in Mayfair ranging from ones with Michelin-starred dining to some of London's grande dames. So why not browse through our collection to plan that luxury break?

For a special occasion

• Claridge's is a London institution, one of the city's best hotels and arguably also one of its most beautiful. The hotel's recent refurbishment was sympathetic to the beauty of the original and the restaurant and the top floor spa have become just as popular as afternoon tea in the foyer.

• For impressive five-star service and amazing attention to detail, Four Seasons Hotel London at Park Lane will not disappoint. The stylish rooms and suites ooze elegance (some boast a terrace), plus there's a destination restaurant and luxurious spa. A sophisticated and central base.

For a shopping spree

• Native Mayfair is perfectly placed for high-end shops, Hyde Park, Soho, and theatres. Choose from sleek contemporary one- and two-bedroom apartments with well-equipped kitchens, dining and living areas. Ready-made meals can even be provided if organised prior to your stay so can concentrate completely on some serious retail therapy!

• On a quiet side street between Bond Street and Selfridges, The Beaumont is a luxurious Art Deco era hotel with fantastic heritage detailing and a great restaurant well known by London’s A-List. It also has a spa with a hammam, which you might need after your day shopping, and before your meal or trip to the theatre.
• If you think you might need a bit more space for all your bags consider staying in one of 12 suites at No. 5 Maddox Street, just off Bond Street. These self-catering mini-apartments are charming and offer all the mod-cons, including audio-visual equipment to please even the most demanding clients.

Janos Grapow

• Close to The Royal Academy, Fortnums and the Burlington Arcade, Brown's Hotel, London is an old world Mayfair institution transformed by Olga Polizzi into an elegant, polished, five-star hotel with a fantastic spa and a rooftop bar.

For a hip stay

• Perhaps the hippest hotel in the capital, just across from Hyde Park, COMO Metropolitan London offers smart uncluttered rooms that are contemporary yet timeless. Dine at Nobu, one of London's most fashionable restaurants serving Japanese/Peruvian cuisine, and chill out in the luxurious spa. A favourite with the A-listers.

• The Mayfair Townhouse is a stunning lifestyle hotel created from the conversion of 15 townhouses on Half Moon Street in the heart of Mayfair. Interiors ooze sultry sophistication and luxurious rooms range from the affordable to the utterly decadent. The Dandy Bar is popular for cocktails and more, and is the place to party till late. A seriously cool property!

For a boutique stay

• Merging Art Deco and Georgian styles, Flemings Mayfair is a gorgeous choice for a super central stay. Interiors boast velvet accents, marble finishes, and opulent chandeliers, plus there's a wonderful Michelin-starred restaurant. A separate townhouse hosts up to 15 people which is perfect for group getaways.

For a grand dame

• The Connaught Hotel is the discreet and understated ‘grande dame’ of Mayfair, the epitome of old-world Britishness, but updated to meet the needs of modern life and design. The service is incredible — there’s a veritable fleet of butlers — and you'll also find a chic restaurant and bars plus a world-class Aman Spa.

For luxury

• For a lavish London stay, Twenty Two is a serious contender. Indulge in gorgeous Art-Deco suites with marble baths and intimate lighting, savour a cocktail in the stylish bar where classic glamour meets a modern twist, and dine at the elegant restaurant. Seriously plush.
• The Dorchester is a London institution; this is the kind of place to come if you want the royal treatment with signature British style and incredible service. The rooms are ritzy yet comfortable, with Italian marble bathrooms, wonderful fabrics and beautiful lighting. The public spaces are grand and gracious.

• 45 Park Lane is the glossy Art Deco sister hotel to The Dorchester, with the same first class service and fantastic views of Hyde Park. This time the decor wows in a different way with sleek lines and sensuous fabrics. They’re known for their haute cuisine breakfasts and Wolfgang Puck's highly recommended CUT restaurant is on-site.

• If you're looking for sustainable luxury then 1 Hotel Mayfair fits the bill. This plant-filled hotel, just steps from Green Park, offers a Bamford wellness spa, a techno gym, and Michelin-starred dining. With thousands of plants scattered throughout the building, growing up the walls, inside and out, plus amazing art installations, it's the perfect sanctuary.
