"Brown’s has all the cachet of London’s better-known five-star hotels, but feels far less formal—you could nip down to the lobby in your slippers without raising too many eyebrows. It’s also got (whisper it) a bit more personality. The place oozes history—Agatha Christie once stayed; Rudyard Kipling finished The Jungle Book here—without feeling the remotest bit stuffy, thanks to the imaginative Olga Polozzi interiors. Antique rugs, bright upholstery, and modern art offset the weighty mahogany paneling. For five-star charisma, Browns wins hands-down." - Nicholas DeRenzo, CNT Editors
