The Connaught, Maybourne

The Connaught occupies a wonderfully discreet corner of Carlos Place, surrounded by the smart boutiques and restaurants of Mount Street. Although Bond Street, Berkeley Square, and Hyde Park are all within easy walking distance, the surrounding area feels more intimate than much of Mayfair. This is a superb location if you want to experience central London without navigating its busiest streets.

History is everywhere, but The Connaught doesn't feel constrained by it. The original fireplaces, fine art, and traditional craftsmanship pair well with modern interiors designed by some of the world's top designers. The atmosphere is refined yet remarkably intimate

Rooms blend classic Mayfair elegance with contemporary design, while the suites offer generous living spaces, with some featuring impressive private terraces. The finest suites feel more like private Mayfair residences, complemented by The Connaught’s 24-hour butler service.

Dining is a highlight, led by the three-Michelin-starred Hélène Darroze at The Connaught, with Jean-Georges offering relaxed all-day dining overlooking Mount Street. The legendary Connaught Bar is famous for its tableside Martini Trolley, joined by the intimate Coburg Bar and art-filled Red Room.

Under the hotel lies the Aman Spa, which brings the brand's Asian-inspired wellness philosophy to Mayfair. It features a peaceful indoor swimming pool, a steam room, a 24-hour fitness centre and a thoughtfully curated selection of holistic treatments.
