Claridges
The Empress of Mayfair
For nearly two centuries, Claridge's has stood as a symbol of timeless British elegance — a masterpiece of style, service and sophistication in the heart of Mayfair. Known as "the Empress of Mayfair," this five-star landmark blends grandeur and warmth like few hotels in the world. Through our independent booking and concierge service we arrange your stay at this legendary address and carry you there door to door in first-class comfort.
Stepping through Claridge's revolving doors is like entering a different world — marble floors shining beneath crystal chandeliers, effortless service, history and modern luxury in perfect harmony. Whether visiting for business, celebration or indulgence, we make sure the journey to and from your door matches the standard of the stay.
A Living Legacy of London Glamour
Claridge's story began in 1812 and has since evolved into a hallmark of refined hospitality. Its Art Deco architecture, marble staircases and soft gold detailing recall an age of timeless glamour, yet recent restorations have kept the hotel firmly at the forefront of modern luxury. From the moment you arrive there is a sense of theatre — bellhops in tailcoats, flowers arranged with royal precision and the soft hum of London life — yet behind the grandeur lies genuine warmth, a hotel that feels both majestic and deeply personal.
The Heart of Mayfair
Nestled on Brook Street, Claridge's offers one of the most exclusive and convenient locations in London. Guests are just moments from Bond Street's luxury boutiques, Grosvenor Square's gardens and the dining of Berkeley Square, with the Royal Academy of Arts and West End theatres within easy reach, and Green Park and Hyde Park nearby for morning walks. It is the perfect base from which to explore London's sophistication while enjoying the tranquillity of Mayfair's elegant streets.
Rooms and Suites: Refined Perfection
Claridge's rooms and suites each capture the essence of refined British style, blending classic Art Deco glamour with contemporary craftsmanship — marble fireplaces, bespoke furniture and understated luxury in every detail. Rooms feature king-sized beds, marble bathrooms and views over Mayfair's charming rooftops, while signature suites offer spacious living areas, private dressing rooms and original 1930s design elements paired with modern technology. The grandest suite spans multiple rooms with hand-painted walls, crystal chandeliers and a grand piano, and every guest enjoys 24-hour butler service and the hotel's legendary concierge team.
Dining, Afternoon Tea and Spa
Dining at Claridge's reflects the hotel's dedication to artistry and taste — a celebrated restaurant offering modern, plant-based fine dining that changes with the seasons, and one of London's most cherished afternoon tea rituals, served in the grand foyer with delicate pastries, finger sandwiches and scones beneath glittering chandeliers and soft piano music. An elegant bar offers expertly crafted cocktails in dark wood and mirrored surroundings, while a newer room introduces an artistic flair with Mediterranean small plates. Hidden beneath the hotel lies a serene spa inspired by Japanese wellness traditions and British craftsmanship, with holistic treatments, a heated swimming pool, sauna, steam room and a state-of-the-art gym.
