Brown’s Hotel

Brown’s Hotel has a fascinating history and has hosted many distinguished guests since it opened as London’s oldest hotel in 1832 and to this day this glamorous, five-star establishment welcomes guests ‘in-the-know’. It is from here that Alexander Graham Bell made the first ever UK telephone call; President Roosevelt stayed on his honeymoon and both Agatha Christie and Rudyard Kipling were so inspired that they often stayed and are believed to have penned novels whilst staying here.

Brown’s Hotel personifies the refined sophistication of modern British luxury. Each room and suite is individually decorated and many feature antiques and contemporary artworks, creating an elegant and fashionable air. Charlie’s is headed up by Michelin-Starred Chef, Adam Byatt, and celebrates British cuisine at its culinary best and The Drawing Room offers an award-winning, quintessential English experience. Meanwhile, the cocktails at The Donovan Bar come courtesy of the legendary maestro of cocktails, Salvatore Calabrese, and Director of Mixology, Federico Pavan, who, together, have created a sublime list marrying personal classics with original concoctions. A luxurious spa and newly refurbished state-of-the-art gymnasium offers a discreet sanctuary within this vibrant city.
