The Connaught, a glamorous country house hotel in the heart of London. The Connaught is not only grand and luxurious but also manages to be warm, welcoming, and offers a wonderfully informal vibe.

From the bedrooms through to the bars (both of which could quite easily be considered as London’s finest) there is an old-fashioned elegance; you could almost imagine an Agatha Christie novel being set here in the 20s.

London luxury hotels of this ilke aren’t usually the most family friendly, however it’s The Connaught’s welcoming and friendly staff that instantly make all feel at home: young, old, couples, or families.

Its location is also perfectly situated to see all the sites of London; in the heart of London’s Mayfair you are a hop, skip, and a jump from Oxford Street and conveniently right next door to one of the captial’s most fashionable streets, Mount St.

Unusally for a city hotel, The Connaught is also home to a luxurious spa, gym, and swimming pool.  The Aman Spa is considered to be one of the most lavish in London and offers a variety of treatments from Indian body scrubs and facials to a full-blown holistic massage.

Whilst it is welcoming to families, if you can leave the kids at home we recommend it so you can take full advantage of the Michellen Starred restaurant and the elegant 1920s-style Connaught Bar (where we guarantee you will taste the best Martinis in town).

There’s a standard you expect of a five-star hotel in Mayfair, but The Connaught far exceeds it.  Whilst it is informal and relaxed, it isn’t entirely without rules and regulations (it has a standard to maintain after all) – avoid wearing casual jeans and no laptops in public places.
