About this hotel

The Connaught is an independent luxury hotel on the Marylebone and Mayfair border in London, established in 1897. The property has remained a fixture of high-end hospitality in central London for over a century, maintaining its position through careful stewardship of period architecture and discreet service. Recent recognition underscores its standing: the hotel earned a place in World's 50 Best Hotels in 2026, and holds a Forbes Travel Guide Property award for the same year. The building itself signals its heritage to visitors arriving from the nearby shops and galleries of Mount Street. Guests here tend to be established travellers and international business visitors who value continuity and understated elegance over flashy amenities. The Connaught suits those looking for a quietly assured London base with historical depth and consistent service standards.
