"Provides high-class boutique style in the main building, and even more indulgence in the Carriage House, a row of beautifully converted eighteenth-century stables."
"The bedrooms of this 'country house in the city' are divided between the main house, converted 18C stables and more modern mews."
"This is a rare find: a posh hotel that's equal parts elegance and friendliness, and it's in one of the few peaceful spots in the area, down a small lane behind Piccadilly." Full review
"This long-established town house hotel near Green Park has won a slew of awards and spends more than £1 million a year keeping up its refined period-style interior."
"Having undergone a £6 million renovation, this hotel's first-floor reception, lounges, guest rooms and restaurant emerged looking sleeker and sexier than ever."
"The Stafford Hotel epitomizes all that is Mayfair. Ornamented with finery, class and sumptuous elegance, and only a short walk away from Buckingham Palace, Piccadilly and Soho."
"This sophisticated St. James’s luxury hotel offers traditionally decorated rooms and suites in the main house."

The custom-built entertainment centers house flat-screen plasma TVs, CD players, and both DVD players and VCRs. More than 1,500 movies can be requested from the hotel's library.
"This superbly trendy choice stay is the product of Philippe Starck, who transformed what was a soulless, '60s shell into a vast, very-twenty-first-century refuge."
"At night, the five-star hotel lights up into individual chambers of different colors, making it very easy to see and yearn to stay at."
"Designer Philippe Starck is the mind behind this hip Ian Schrager luxury hotel in the West End, where the minimalist white quarters can be personalised with ambient mood lighting."
"A slice of New York urban chic just a stone’s throw from Covent Garden, this Philippe Starck–designed hotel is so cool you’d hardly notice it was there."
"A super-cool stay at a newly redesigned, five-star in London's Theater District, with breakfast included." Full review
