The World's Most Iconic Art Deco Landmark in Mayfair
Claridge’s is shaped by centuries of enduring artistry, standing as London's definitive luxury landmark since 1856. Ranked #1 in the UK by The World's 50 Best Hotels Award (2023, 2024, 2025), Claridge's occupies a storied presence at the corner of Brook Street and Davies Street in Mayfair. Known affectionately as the "annexe to Buckingham Palace," the hotel has welcomed crowned monarchs, heads of state, Hollywood luminaries, and fashion royalty for nearly two centuries.
Within its red-brick Victorian facade lies an extraordinary world of timeless glamour where Art Deco motifs, polished glass accents, and gilded cornices harmonize with contemporary craftsmanship. Across 264 rooms and one-of-a-kind suites, legendary interior designers—including David Linley, Diane von Furstenberg, Pierre-Yves Rochon, Bryan O'Sullivan, and André Fu—have created masterworks of residential elegance. Notable accommodations range from the Duchess of Rivoli Superior Rooms to the historic Prince Alexander Suite (declared Yugoslavian territory by Winston Churchill in 1945 for the royal birth of Crown Prince Alexander), to The Residence sky pavilion featuring a private rooftop hydrotherapy pool.
The culinary offerings at Claridge’s define London society. The Foyer & Reading Room serves the capital's quintessential afternoon tea beneath the shimmering glow of a bespoke Dale Chihuly glass sculpture, alongside refined all-day dining. The Fumoir, a seductive art deco jewel box designed by Thierry Despont, welcomes discerning patrons for ice-chilled vodka martinis and vintage spirits surrounded by William Klein photography. Claridge's Bar showcases rare vintage champagnes and bespoke mixology in a David Collins-designed salon, while Dante Mayfair brings the iconic Greenwich Village aperitivo bar to Davies Street. The hotel also features Claridge's ArtSpace Café designed by John Pawson and Claridge's Bakery led by acclaimed master baker Richard Hart.
Wellness reaches new depths at Claridge's Spa, an subterranean haven three floors below ground designed by André Fu, featuring a heated indoor swimming pool framed by stone columns, steam rooms, and restorative treatments by Augustinus Bader and FaceGym.
