The 8 best hotels in Mayfair, London

The Apartment
Charlie's
Regal Suite

Mayfair is London at its most refined. After years of exploring the city, it's still the neighbourhood I recommend first. Georgian squares and quiet mews sit alongside Bond Street's boutiques, Savile Row's tailors and some of London's best restaurants.

The best hotels in Mayfair, London put service, design and attention to detail first. Some are grand, historic hotels, famous for afternoon tea and cocktail bars. Others are smaller and more intimate, and a few bring a fresh, modern take on Mayfair style, from art deco glamour to eco-conscious design.

Green Park and Hyde Park are on the doorstep, and Piccadilly, Oxford Street and the West End's theatres are an easy walk away. Few neighbourhoods make a better base for a classic London stay.
