Michelin Guide "It was the original site of the Playboy Club and has been a car showroom but now 45 Park Lane has been reborn as The Dorchester's sister hotel."
Star Service "It is the little sister of the nearby classically grand Dorchester hotel, which it relies on for some luxury frills and backup facilities." Full review
Gayot "With the opening of 45 Park Lane, the Dorchester Collection offers upscale travelers the ninth property in its portfolio of luxury hotels."
Travel + Leisure "The Thierry Despont-designed 45 Park Lane, located across the street from its older sibling the Dorchester, opened in the summer of 2011 as a more intimate and modern version of its glitzier neighbor." Full review
BlackBook "This swish new Mayfair destination boasts the stylistic acumen of star designer Thierry W.Despont, with cerused mahogany and camel-hued suede lending it a vaguely masculine air."
Forbes Travel Guide 4 Stars
"With distinctive art deco styling, 45 Park Lane is a breath of fresh air in London’s posh Mayfair neighborhood." Full review
Lonely Planet "Part of the exclusive Dorchester Collection, this luxurious hotel’s address alone is sufficiently evocative as a name, enjoying as it does one of the most prestigious locations in London." Full review
Afar Magazine "Common spaces feature bespoke furniture and carpets, eye-catching light fixtures, and an artsy flair, while rooms (29 of which are suites) come with Hyde Park views." Full review
Time Out "45 Park Lane’s ace up the sleeve lay outside the room, the artwork, the free nibbles and the techtastic touches. It lay in the superb staff. " Full review
Condé Nast Traveler "You get all the perks of a Dorchester Collection property but the feel of a more modern boutique property." Full review

Lonely Planet "Rising like a phoenix from the ashes of the 'old' King's Cross – once the city's red light district – the Great Northern Hotel, with its curving brick facade, would make its 1854 incarnation proud." Full review
Zagat "Open since 1854, this elegant hotel within King's Cross Station retains its wrought-iron staircases and broad, curved corridors, though guestrooms are thoroughly modern."
Frommer's "Of all the major railway terminal hotels currently in operation in London, the Great Northern is the most distinct—and the smallest." Full review
Star Service "The grand sweeping curve of the hotel is still at the hub of Europe's railway network and is just a few steps from U.K. and international Eurostar rail terminals." Full review
OysterLuxury
"The 91 rooms, with sash windows and vintage Farrow & Bell Shades, are elegant and contemporary, and a few of the bathrooms have roll-top bathtubs." Full review
Jetsetter "Revamped railway hotel with gorgeous rooms, a sultry cocktail bar and a restaurant helmed by a Michelin-starred chef." Full review
Time Out "From the swanky lighting and the hand crafted furniture to the sleek decoration, everything about the Great Northern Hotel oozes glamour and sophistication." Full review
Frommer's "Rooms aren’t huge, but they have a smart modern edge that includes—daringly for a hotel—cream-colored carpeting...high-standard perks pack the other spaces—a good British restaurant, Plum & Spilt Milk" Full review
