"A family-owned Belgravia boutique established in 1910 with longstanding royal connections—reputedly the only hotel to hold a Royal Warrant for hospitality—this intimate property is a comfortable, traditionally English retreat a short walk from Buckingham Palace. The 69 rooms feature silk wallpapers, vintage-inspired headboards, and plush seating, and the hotel offers rare perks such as a private back garden and legendary footman service for suite guests. Upgraded accommodations include a multi-room Royal Suite with four-poster beds, a grand piano and antiques, and the hotel’s famed afternoon tea and garden lunches remain extremely popular with both locals and visitors." - Sandra Ramani, Charu Suri, Katherine LaGrave, Jennifer Flowers, Laura Holt, Laura Dannen Redman
