Hotel & Accommodation
On the corner of London’s luxury triptych between Mayfair, Soho and St James, Hotel Cafe Royal is the historic hotel that has been welcoming guests for 150 years. From Oscar Wilde to Muhammad Ali, this hotel has always been the place to see and be seen, with impeccable style throughout from the Superior Guestrooms to the Royal Wing. Inside it straddles the line between contemporary flair and original features, which are highlighted through careful decor - it’s wonderfully romantic and the service is impeccable.
To stand out in London, food really has to be exceptional, and this legendary Regent Street address has long been the capital's hub for fine food, wine and conversation. Oscar Wilde liked the wine (which is why one of the bars is named after him), and Churchill liked the steak, and with two bars and one restaurant as well as space for afternoon tea, there’s plenty to indulge in. For botanical cocktails head to the Green Bar, while Papillon serves all meals and a British menu with a French twist.
