🏨 Where to Stay
- Claridge's ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ — a Mayfair institution since 1812, all Art Deco glamour and legendary afternoon tea in the Foyer, with Michelin-starred dining and a André Fu-designed spa dug five storeys into the London clay.
- The Connaught ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ — smart pick — a discreet Mayfair Village landmark since 1897, home to the three-Michelin-starred Hélène Darroze and the Aman Spa, with a mahogany staircase Ralph Lauren once copied for his Madison Avenue flagship.
- Flemings Mayfair ⭐⭐⭐⭐ — hidden gem — thirteen interconnecting Georgian townhouses between Green Park and Hyde Park, called "one of the best kept secrets in Central London," with a Michelin-starred restaurant and 1930s-glamour rooms — genuine Mayfair address, without the Claridge's price tag.
- The Chesterfield Mayfair ⭐⭐⭐⭐ — attainable pick — three Georgian townhouses just off Berkeley Square, rated 9.2 by guests, with a jazz piano bar, an award-winning afternoon tea and a doorman in a top hat — quintessentially British and genuinely well-priced for the postcode.
