One of London’s few award-winning family-run five-star hotels, The Athenaeum Hotel and Residences is prestigiously located in the heart of Mayfair, just opposite Royal Green Park.

The Athenaeum embodies a proud heritage and independent spirit: from original art deco roots, bespoke British craftsmanship, to the fabulous Living Wall.

Completing a multi-million-pound refurbishment in 2018, some of the hotel’s 162 rooms, suites and apartments have contemporary opening floor-to-ceiling windows so you can enjoy even more of the view. Every aspect of the design and service helps you feel relaxed and at home.

The discreet Residences, a sophisticated enclave of serviced apartments, ideal for families, groups and extended stays have a dedicated entrance and are kitted out with all the conveniences and first-class amenities you’d expect from a Mayfair location.

The Athenaeum invites guests to ‘Look at London Differently’ by relaxing in The View, the exclusive residents’ lounge majestically occupying the top floor. A sanctuary thoughtfully designed by award-winning Martin Hulbert, adorned with comfortable seating and design-led furniture that offers uninterrupted views over the cityscape of London. Guests can enjoy a daily complimentary tipple and nibbles while taking in the panoramic views.
