In a bid to seek out the best hotels in London and come up with a definitive list, the House & Garden team has undertaken the arduous task of travelling around the capital to test them. Putting our Princess and The Pea hats on, we’ve tested everything from the pillow density to the room service, spa facilities and of course the restaurants and bars on offer. The list, in no particular order, details the best hotels in London, marked by their service, style and comfort. Whatever type of hotel you’re after and wherever you want to be in the capital, this is where to book.
Which location is best to stay in London?
There’s a London neighbourhood to check into for every type of traveller. First timers might want to stay central for ease, from Covent Garden to Soho, Mayfair to Holborn. Some of the glitziest grand dame hotels are in the heart of the city, like Claridge’s in Mayfair and The Savoy in Covent Garden. For an east London edge, Shoreditch has built a thriving hotel scene over the years with newcomers like One Hundred Shoreditch and Nobu. For stays on the more affordable end, The Hoxton has hotels across the city, from Holborn to Shepherd’s Bush near Notting Hill. The north-west London neighbourhood has a thriving restaurant scene right now. Those wanting to escape the bustle might want to check into riverside stay The Mitre which is opposite Hampton Court Palace and minutes from Richmond.

The Emory, Belgravia
Design notes: Designed as one of the late architect Richard Rogers’ final projects, the sleek glass box of a building has great protruding steel outriggers that look like giant sails all across it – designed as anti-vibration bearings from the Piccadilly Line nearby. But good luck spotting the hotel from afar. The Emory is all about quiet luxury. The Maybourne’s new hotel is London’s first all-suite hotel meaning you’re in for a treat whichever of the 60 suites you stay in – and no suite is smaller than 55sqm. For the suite interiors, the hotel didn’t rest on its architectural laurels (it was one of the late architect Richard Rogers’ final projects). Six big-name interior designers were involved in the designs, André Fu (Claridge’s Spa), Pierre Yves Rochon (of The Dorchester), Alexandra Champalimaud (Raffles Singapore), Rigby & Rigby and Il Sereno‘s Patricia Urquiola.
Why stay here: The hotel’s biggest draws can be found in the shared spaces. When it comes to food, that’s abc kitchens on the ground floor, with huge glass windows facing Hyde Park across the road and Damien Hirst artwork on the walls. French super-chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten has blended his three NYC big hitters, abc kitchen, abcV and abc cocina – which have been hot tickets since the original opened in 2010 – to create a London abc kitchen which focuses on all three elements; farm-to-table, plant-based, and Latin-inspired. The Emory Rooftop Bar on the top floor has some of the best and most exclusive views in London – and it’s only open to hotel guests.
Guests at The Emory also have full access to a four-storey subterranean wellness club below. Known as Surrenne, the £10,000-a-year private member’s club focuses on ‘longevity and wellbeing’. As a standout feature, guests will have an on-site doctor on tap, focusing on functional diagnostics ranging from blood work to cardiovascular and hormone tests, to microbiome mapping and epigenetic testing. The fitness studio is Tracy Anderson’s first London workout studio and the tranquil pool room comes complete with plush cabanas, a steam room, a sauna and a snow shower for cold exposure – all to the soundtrack of neuroscientist-curated music. Facials are courtesy of FaceGym and Stella McCartney.
What’s around: Hyde Park and Knightsbridge’s finest shops, restaurants and bars are right on your doorstep.
Don’t miss: If you’re coming from an airport, make sure to take the hotel up on their complimentary fleet of BMW (or helicopter) pick up service.

Mandarin Oriental Mayfair
Design notes: The rooms at Mandarin Oriental’s new outpost in Mayfair are designed by Studio Indigo and ours, the Hanover Suite, had botanical, Eastern themes coming through from various wallpapers; a cherry tree blossomed behind the sofa, while the central walk-in wardrobe was wrapped in burnt gold paper with birds, branches and flowers – all of which our almost two-year-old was thrilled to point out to us. Everything is as luxe as can be, while remaining balanced and understated to a certain degree, but you can expect every material to be the highest quality available. The pièce de resistance comes in the form of the majestic green marble spiral staircase leading the way down the Akira Back, the hotel’s main restaurant.
Why stay here: If you love to feel like you’re in a super luxe home away from home, Mandarin Oriental Mayfair easily delivers that. There’s everything you need for a comfortable and spoiling stay, from the restaurant to the spa, and it’s somehow incredibly peaceful while being right in the heart of the action.
What’s around: The location of Mandarin Oriental Mayfair is now only heightened by the fact it shares a square with the Elizabeth Line, meaning it’s an easy hop from Heathrow and then of course, excellently placed within the beating heart of London. Mayfair and its shops are next door, Marylebone just the other side of Oxford Street, Soho one direction and the entirety of west London in the other. It’s a very busy area but MO Mayfair cuts a little corner of tranquility through all of that, from the cocooning feel of its decadent rooms to the spa.
Don’t miss: The spa is truly lovely, with a long, heated pool, three hydrotherapy pools alongside it, gym, sauna, steam room and array of brilliant treatments.

1 Hotel Mayfair
Design notes: ‘Sustainable sanctuary’ might be a term thrown around a lot these days but the 1 Hotel brand lives up to it and more, especially when it comes to design. Like its US counterparts, the calming hotel is made up of consciously sourced furniture and materials, (including hand-chiselled stones and timber sustainably sourced from the Windsor Estate), calming, earthy tones, cleverly reused plastics (like art made from marine plastics collected from beaches in Kent) and over 1,300 beautiful plants throughout – you’ll spot gardeners working around the hotel watering house plants and pruning garden walls. A particularly lovely touch is the high-quality filtered drinking water taps in each room – which is right to a living plant wall in your bedroom.
Why stay here: If you want complete zen right in the hustle of the city, this is the place to be. As soon as you walk through the plant-dotted exterior on the buzzing Berkley Street (right near The Ritz) you’re greeted by a giant, living, breathing ‘chandelier’ by Patrick Nadeau made of rainforest moss.
What’s around You’re a stone’s throw from Green Park and Buckingham Palace, meaning you can get the normally packed park to yourself early in the morning and after the evening rush (pets stay at the hotel at no extra charge and are very well looked after). Beyond that you have some of the best of London right on your doorstep, including the West End, Harrods and some of the best royal parks just a few minutes away.
Don’t miss: Fancy a day trip? The hotel’s electric Audis parked up front, a complimentary perk for guests to take for a spin. Dovetale, from Michelin-star chef Tom Sellers, is also a brilliant culinary experience for both dinner and breakfast. The hotel has recently splashed out on a fancy new Knickerbocker Glory trolley which should be taken for a spin and the bread – made from chef Tom’s 20-year-old sourdough starter – with the whey heritage butter is an absolute must-order.
