Despite being a fairly large property, The Marylebone Hotel goes to every effort to bring a boutique, homey feel to the place, from the plush, inviting lobby to the traditional British theme of the restaurant. The location is great -- Marylebone Village is relatively quiet, yet just five minutes from the capital's hubbub. The 257 rooms are smart but fairly cozy, and include marble bathrooms with robes and slippers. Some are on the small side, however. For a cheaper option nearby, there's the Holiday Inn Oxford Circus -- but it offers a lot less in the way of character.

Scene
Polished, modern facade belying homey interiors
The Marylebone Hotel presents a modern yet formal facade of glass and polished stone, while upon entry visitors are met with a swirling mosaic centerpiece, plump cushions perched on homey sofas, and purple flocked wallpaper. Black-and-white photos decorate a cozy corner, while original artwork adds to an eclectic yet homey ambience (the hotel hosts pop-up exhibitions in conjunction with the Rebecca Hossack Art Gallery on a regular basis). The Drawing Room is another public space perfect for lounging, with plush velvet couches and zebra-print armchairs that sit on polished wooden floorboards. A huge floral-themed rug and matching crimson wallpaper make for an explosion of eye-catching color.
Location
Boutique village-feel minutes walk from bustling Oxford Street
Set in the well-heeled central London neighborhood of Marylebone, the location is a blend of quiet residential and fashionable boutique. Despite the area's quiet, village-like atmosphere, the hotel is less than a 15-minute walk from the bustling shops of Oxford Street in one direction and Marble Arch and Hyde Park in the other. The nearest Underground station is Bond Street, which is less than a 10-minute walk away to the south. Regent's Park (with its boating lake and zoo) is less than a 10-minute walk away to the south.
Rooms
Homey but tasteful with marble bathrooms
The Marylebone Hotel has a total of 257 rooms, all of which are tastefully decorated in subtle tones with fun, contemporary furnishings and polished wood paneling. In-room technology includes iPod docks, free Wi-Fi, and Nespresso coffee machines, while more traditional touches include complimentary chocolates and a turndown service. Marble-clad bathrooms have heated floors and come equipped with high-end toiletries, bathrobes, and slippers. Higher-level rooms have views over London's rooftops, though some rooms are on the small side.
Features
Classic British cooking and quintessentially English afternoon tea
The hotel's 108 Bar & Restaurant serves up a menu of refreshed British classics for breakfast, lunch, or dinner with an emphasis on seasonal produce. The 108 Pantry features homemade cakes served for afternoon tea in the hotel's modernized Edwardian townhouse. A particularly cozy corner of the hotel is the Drawing Room, with plush, velvet sofas and homey floral decor. Though there is no fitness center or pool inside the hotel, guests are given free access to the trendy Third Space wellness center one block away, featuring a large ozone treated pool, modern gym, and spa treatments.
