Following a £24 million restoration, Brown’s has been restored to its rightful position as one of the most intimate and charming hotels in London. The interiors are contemporary and have a real sense of style, while retaining much of their original, quintessentially English elegance.Set in the heart of Mayfair on Albemarle Street, Brown’s is one of the most historic hotels as it was the first ever hotel to open in London in 1837. Within a short walk from exclusive Bond Street shopping, West End theatres and St James’s, Brown’s Hotel opened to provide ‘genteel’ accommodation for discerning people. Brown’s has always had an air of exclusivity and refinement, which it has retained following its extensive refurbishment overseen by The Rocco Forte Collection’s Director of Design, Olga Polizzi.

Composed of 11 Georgian town houses, all 117 bedrooms (including 29 luxurious suites) have been individually designed with a sophistication that has become the trademark of The Rocco Forte Collection, as has the warm and personal service.

Rapidly reasserting itself as one of London’s finest dining venues, Brown’s Hotel offers The Albemarle (formerly The Grill) which under the craftmanship of Executive Chef, Lee Streeton, serves an outstanding menu of great British classic dishes, using only the finest of seasonal ingredients. Traditional afternoon tea at Brown’s continues to be one of the best afternoon teas in London and is served in The English Tea Room.

The hotel’s new and improved conference and banqueting facilities now comprise six meeting and function rooms for up to 120 people, while for post-meeting relaxation Brown’s Hotel offers a fully equipped gym and three spa treatment rooms.

Please Note: As of 1 July 2007, all public areas in Brown’s Hotel are non-smoking.

In the heart of Mayfair, near theaters, galleries and shopping on Bond Street, Rocco Forte Brown’s Hotel offers a quintessential British experience with a contemporary twist. No proper visit to London would be complete without enjoying the decadent Afternoon Tea here, and savvy travelers enjoy the refined, stylish guestrooms, many of which interconnect, making them ideal for families. Be sure to head to HIX Mayfair for British art and local seasonal cuisine, sip cocktails whilst listening to live jazz at Donovan Bar and step into the stylish Spa for a truly relaxing treatment.
