Great location and easy to get to various sights, fabulous service, impeccably clean, accommodating of teens and older children, lovely rooms and bathrooms.
Hands down the absolute best hotel I’ve ever stayed! The staff so kind and accommodating, this should be an example to Marriott, Four Seasons etc as to how a guest should be treated. I will be back, and only wish this were a hotel located in many destinations as it’s the best!
Brown’s Hotel is a lovely peaceful hotel for a stay in London. The staff is incredibly helpful and warm. The high tea is highly recommended as well! We enjoyed our breakfasts in the beautiful Charlie’s restaurant. Highly recommend! Cannot wait to go back!
Beautiful hotel offering a 5* experience in central London. Staff were exceptional and the room was immaculately clean and well-provisioned. The bed was very comfortable, linen and towels of a high quality and we were very comfortable. The air conditioning was not hugely effective and quite loud but this did nothing to spoil our stay.
I am fortunate to have experienced ten sublime days of ultimate luxury at Brown's. This is a hotel for those who seek quiet and discreet elegance. Everyone makes you feel at home; you feel comfortably pampered with a perfect touch of elegance. Brown's in all spheres raises its performance to an art form.
This was my second stay at Brown’s, and once again, it did not disappoint. The staff is exceptionally knowledgeable, accommodating, and friendly—"no" is simply not in their vocabulary.
Unfortunately, I fractured my ankle on my first day in London. The concierge was incredibly helpful, recommending a treatment facility and even calling Princess Grace Hospital to ensure I could be seen promptly. Additionally, they thoughtfully assigned us a room near the elevator to minimize the number of steps I had to take.
Despite my injury, I still thoroughly enjoyed London—it may have just slowed my pace a bit!
I love staying at a small hotel where the staff knows your name and remembers your preferences. Brown’s remains my top choice in London!
Browns is by far the best hotel in London, i have stayed in nearly all of the best 5 star hotels. The attentiveness of every single one of the staff and the chic and elegant comforts makes it feel so very special !
I absolutely ADORED my stay at Brown's!! The ambience, fashionable and easy-to-navigate Mayfair area, Christmas decorations, housekeeping service both in the morning and turndown at night, Donovan's & Charlie's Bars, Door and Concierge staff--sigh! I could move in tomorrow! Thank you!!
I was eager to try Brown's for its storied history and excellent location. On the plus side, the restaurants (both Charlie's and the Drawing Rooms) were excellent, as was the concierge service. On the minus side, my room facing Dover Street was so noisy that I had to move because I couldn't sleep. There's a club there that features screaming, outdoor singing and the revving of engines late into the night--and that's during the week. I could still hear the din on the Albermarle side, but at least I managed to get some sleep. For £785 a night, I expect better. I also expect carpeting in the room, rather than plank floors more suited to a log cabin than a fine hotel.
