What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Its mottled-brick exterior, in sober grey fringed with gold, is nothing if not distinctive, and its interiors draw heavily from several eras…
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Tucked onto quiet Vandon Street in historic Westminster, the hotel sits minutes on foot from Buckingham Palace and St. James's Park.
The rooms
Chevron parquet floors anchor bespoke interiors, while marble bathrooms feature walk-in showers, underfloor heating, and deep soaking tubs in select suites.
Dogs stay too.
Restaurant
The Dining Room & Bar
A brass spiral staircase leads downstairs to seasonal British dining and cocktails along an illuminated green-tiled bar.
How it began
Purpose-built in 2020 by Studio Moren, the building was conceived from scratch to function as a discreet private townhouse.

A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
