Ritz, and Bond Street makes this a popular choice for those wanting to be in
the heart of Mayfair. The hotel is surrounded by a choice of restaurants, but
also has one on-site as well as a lounge bar and a small, simple fitness center with modern equipment. The guest
rooms are contemporary and stylish, with air-conditioning and sharp bathrooms.
There’s free Wi-Fi as well, but breakfast is not included in the room rate. Those
wanting to have a spa on-site should check out the nearby Brown's Hotel as an
alternative, though rates there are significantly higher.

Scene
Classic hotel with modern interiors and
Built in 1913, the hotel has an attractive classic facade and a
revolving glass entrance door that offers a hint at the fine interiors. The lobby is an expansive
space, with a patterned carpet, curved wooden reception desk, plenty of
comfortable seating areas, and a bank of computer stations for guests’ use. The look is a blend of traditional and contemporary styles, with eclectic furniture that ranges from low-slung couches to tables and chairs with antique silhouettes. There’s
a flat-screen TV mounted on the wall as well as potted plants and fresh flowers dotted
around that provide a bit of homey style. It’s a light, bright space with lots of floor to ceiling windows
overlooking the street outside. The hotel is popular with business guests and tourists as it provides good value for money in an expensive part of
London.
Location
In the exclusive Mayfair neighborhood, near many top attractions
Set on Curzon Street in the heart of London’s upmarket Mayfair, many of
the city’s most famous sights and top attractions are within a short walk of
the hotel. Green Park, Hyde Park, and The Ritz are a four-minute walk; while
St. James's Palace, Buckingham Palace, Fortnum and Mason, the high-end shops of
Bond Street, the Royal Academy of Arts, and celebrity nightspot
Mahiki are all within a 10-minute walk. The area is also packed with top-class
restaurants and plenty of coffee shops. It’s easy to get around on public
transport from here too, as the Green Park Underground station is just a four-minute
walk away. Heathrow International Airport is around a 50-minute taxi ride from
the hotel, although this varies widely according to traffic conditions. The trip takes the same amount by tube and is far cheaper. Gatwick Airport can be reached in 45 minutes by combining the tube and Gatwick Express train.
Rooms
Stylish rooms with air-conditioning and modern bathrooms
The Washington Mayfair's 178 guest rooms are available as Classic,
Superior, and Deluxe Double or Twin, though style is identical across the board. There are also a range of Suites,
including some two-bedroom options that have a large separate lounge and a
kitchenette. The decor has a stylish and modern look, using warm, earthy colors with pops of bright green alongside dark wood furniture with leather headboards. Patterns make a statement here, from the circle-print yellow wallpaper on accent walls, to the headboards, metallic lamps, and soft furnishings. Many have views toward Green Park. All rooms include free Wi-Fi, minibars, flat-screen TVs with satellite channels, coffeemakers, air-conditioning,
desks, and safes. Bathrooms are sleek and modern with
contemporary white sinks (but limited counter space in many rooms), tan porcelain tiling, mist-free mirrors, shower/tub combo and upgraded toiletries. Noise can be an issue from inside and outside the hotel, and while all rooms have air-conditioning, it's not always up to snuff.
Features
Bar, restaurant, and fitness center on-site
The hotel has a good restaurant on-site, Madison's, which is open for
breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The restaurant serves international cuisine and
has an intimate atmosphere in the evenings when the tables are candlelit. Unfortunately breakfast is not included in room rates. The
lounge bar serves hot beverages as well as a range of bubbly, wines, and
spirits. It also has a snack menu and serves a popular afternoon tea. Twenty-four-hour
room service is also available at the hotel. Private dining can be
arranged for groups, and the hotel has many different options for meetings and
events. There's a small on-site fitness center with weights, treadmills, and
exercise bikes. Free Wi-Fi is available throughout the property as well.
