The Connaught – legendary luxury hotel in London's Mayfair Village
Stately yet stylish design, historic yet cutting edge ambiance, attentive yet relaxed service - the Connaught hotel is a unique place to stay.
One of London's most historic and exclusive luxury hotels, the Connaught was renovated in 2007. As a result the hotel contains quite an unrivalled combination of eclectic design and historic character. Guests have the luxury of choosing between rooms styled in traditional, elegant and soft toned grandeur or sophisticated, clean and striking modernity. Throw in the outstanding service that has been ever present since the hotels inauguration in 1897, and the Connaught makes an exceptional place to stay. Not forgetting the list of accolades this luxury hotel can lay claim to though; The Connaught Bar has consistently ranked as one of the best in the world, The Aman spa is the first of its kind in Europe and the Terrace suite has one of the largest roof terraces in Mayfair.
