Right opposite Green Park. Steps from Buckingham Palace. Where your London stays feel like coming home.
Since 1850, this Piccadilly corner has been part club, part residence, now it’s yours. Where celebrities once edited films, where walls turned from club to residence, and the park is just across the road. Here, you’ll find comfort, calm, and a touch of London magic.
