About The Lanesborough
The Lanesborough stands in Regency splendour at Hyde Park Corner, occupying a magnificent neoclassical building that was originally St George's Hospital. A meticulous restoration has created one of the world's most exclusive hotels, where every guest is assigned a personal butler and no request is too great.
Céleste, the hotel's Michelin-starred restaurant, serves refined French cuisine beneath a dramatic glass ceiling. The Garden Room, with its hand-painted chinoiserie panels, hosts one of London's most elegant afternoon teas. The Library Bar serves creative cocktails in a wood-panelled setting worthy of a grand country house. The location at the top of Knightsbridge places you within walking distance of Harrods, Harvey Nichols, Hyde Park and the West End.

“The Lanesborough exceeds even the highest expectations. The Garden Room tea was exquisite. Our room was a work of art. The butler unpacked our luggage and had everything pressed and arranged. Remarkable.”

“We walked through the doors and felt like we'd stepped into a palace. The Library Bar was our favourite spot — perfect cocktails in the most beautiful setting. Harrods is five minutes' walk. Simply extraordinary.”
