The Beaumont Mayfair

As we departed the very lovely Beaumont Mayfair Hotel, our home for the last 4 nights, the doorman greeted me with "Good morning Susan." He opened the car doors for us, helped the driver load our luggage, then lifted his top hat and bowed as we drove off, a most fitting display of charm and grace indicative of the class and extraordinary service we experienced here this week. There are literally hundreds of 5 star hotels in London, but for us this beautiful boutique hotel exemplifies the best of personal care and graceful living. It will be our home whenever we are privileged to visit London again. Of particular noteworthy mention is Robert, a true gentleman who welcomed us to a late night dinner, a week ago last Friday. We were so impressed by his courtly manner, and genuine friendliness, we checked out of the considerably less desirable Lansbury Heritage Hotel and switched to the Beaumont. Alex, the manager of the hotel's Rosi restaurant provided my husband, and I, with a list of area hot spots, restaurants, shops, parks and tram stations to get around. The beauty of this hotel's rooms are elevated by the details. Interesting books on design, art, area entertainment, daily fresh fruit on the table. Also available were an array of fine snacks and libations. A very heartwarming surprise was the lovely hotel bookmark left on top of my book on the night table, by the turn down service staff. This is the type of gesture and style which sets the Beaumont apart. London exceeded our every expectation. We enjoyed every moment of our 10 days in this lovely city, without ever once having to pop open our umbrellas 🌂! Thanks for the memories London and to the staff at the Beaumont. Our hats are off to each of you. God bless 🙌 🙏 ❤️"

From the moment I arrived at the front door, the staff were helpful, warm and genuinely welcoming. I was shown around my room and talked through how everything worked, which was such a lovely touch. I did immediately forget how to use the heating and air con controls, but one quick call to reception and they changed the settings remotely for me without any fuss. The room itself was beautiful. The bed was huge and incredibly comfortable, and I was lucky enough to have an amazing terrace, which felt like such a treat in London. It had clearly been designed with the British weather in mind too, with lighting, heating, comfortable chairs and a retractable awning, so I could actually enjoy the outside space properly. The whole hotel is stunning. It has that rare feeling of somewhere that could have been there for hundreds of years and has simply been impeccably maintained. The details are gorgeous, from the black and white photographs in the lift to the beautiful powder room downstairs. Everything feels considered without feeling showy. What really stood out, though, was the guest experience. Nothing felt like too much trouble. I especially loved having steamed milk brought to my room for my morning coffee, and the little details made it feel like a real home away from home: a welcome note, a bottle of non-alcoholic fizz in the room, branded chocolate and macarons. As someone with a sweet tooth, that was very well received. Breakfast in Rosi was sublime. The room itself is beautiful, with a lovely story behind the revamp, and the balance of light, detail and architecture makes it feel as though it has always been there. The staff were attentive and the food was excellent. They even managed to make porridge feel like a treat. Between the buffet and the menu, it felt as though every preference had been thought about. On my last day, I was able to ask for a coffee to go before reluctantly leaving what really had become my London home from home. The location is also superb. Selfridges is on the doorstep, and Leicester Square is a lovely walk away down Oxford Street and Bond Street. If you are planning a shopping trip, I honestly cannot think of a better base. The Beaumont gets the details right. Every person I came across seemed to genuinely care about the guest experience, and it shows in everything from the service to the room touches - even down to a cable tidy that I may have accidentally taken home with me. I cannot wait for my next visit.

We had an excellent time at the Beaumont, including an unexpected but greatly appreciated return for an additional night at the end of our trip following a flight cancellation, which was a welcome respite after a stressful time at the airport. Of the three hotels we stayed at on this trip we enjoyed the Beaumont the best by far. We found the service, design, and comfort better than the Ritz-Carlton properties we've stayed at previously. The classic Art Deco atmosphere is beautiful, the rooms were astonishingly quiet and perfectly appointed, and the location is convenient to multiple Underground lines and points of interest. We enjoyed each of the on-site restaurants, and the staff were uniformly excellent at every level, before, during, and even after our stays. We will certainly return.

Absolute delightful stay! Every equipment and attention to details provided in the rooms made sense! Confortable beds, nice decoration but most of all the friendly and attentive staff from each service experienced (concierge/front desk/bellboy/breakfast staff made our stay even better! See you soon again!! Un grand merci de Paris!

Loved this hotel. Had an issue with the AC the first night but they moved us to another room the next day. Really liked the staff, especially the guys at the front. The breakfast buffet was nice, too. It had a good selection.
