Location

The Connaught is one of London's grandest and most famous hotels, which spans the quiet corner of Mount Street and Carlos Place in the heart of London’s exclusive Mayfair. It is moments from one of London's most beautiful areas, Berkeley Square, and the shops of the world famous Bond Street. Built in 1897, The Connaught attracted the elite of Victorian society, along with celebrities of the era. In 2009 the hotel was restored to its former glory with a contemporary-classic design scheme.  A new wing was added with the Aman Spa, Ballroom and 30 luxurious suites in November 2009.

This hotel has 121 rooms (including 31 suites) which combine classic elegance with a contemporary sense of style. The rooms in the new wing have beautiful and serene style.  Prominent designer, Guy Oliver, redeveloped many of the rooms, suites and the sumptuous Apartment Suite giving the Connaught a unique feel among London's luxury hotel scene.
