Mayfair, London
About The Dorchester
The Dorchester has commanded its prime position on Park Lane since 1931, overlooking the green expanse of Hyde Park. The hotel is a monument to luxury, with lavishly appointed rooms, three acclaimed restaurants — including the three-Michelin-star Alain Ducasse at The Dorchester — and The Promenade, a glamorous space for afternoon tea and light meals.
The Dorchester Spa is one of London's finest, and The Bar at The Dorchester serves creative cocktails in a sleek Art Deco setting. Rooms on the park side enjoy sweeping views of Hyde Park, while the hotel's Mayfair location means Oxford Street shopping, Bond Street boutiques and the West End theatres are all within comfortable walking distance.

“The views over Hyde Park are extraordinary. We had dinner at Alain Ducasse and it was the best meal of our lives — nine courses of absolute perfection. The spa the next morning was the cherry on top.”

“Old-school glamour at its finest. The doormen, the lobby, the room — everything is immaculate. We walked through Mayfair to the theatre in about fifteen minutes. A very special hotel.”

“Beautiful hotel with outstanding service. The Promenade afternoon tea was lovely. Only downside is Park Lane traffic noise if your room faces the road, so request a park-facing room.”
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to book Alain Ducasse in advance?
Yes, absolutely. The three-Michelin-star restaurant books up well ahead. Reserve as far in advance as possible, especially for Friday and Saturday evenings.
Which rooms have Hyde Park views?
Request a park-facing room or suite when booking. These are the most sought-after rooms and command a premium, but the views are spectacular.
Is there a dress code?
Smart casual throughout. Alain Ducasse requires smart attire — gentlemen need a jacket. The Bar and Promenade are smart casual.
How far is The Dorchester from theatres?
The West End theatre district is about 15 minutes on foot through Mayfair, or a quick Tube ride from Hyde Park Corner to Piccadilly Circus (one stop on the Piccadilly line).
