West End Hotels

Choose a West End hotel and let your hair down in the hedonistic village of Soho or treat yourself to a makeover in Marylebone High Street's boutiques. Follow red lanterns through Chinatown’s szechuan-scented streets to Shaftesbury Avenue’s neon theatre façades.

West End, Soho, Mayfair and Marylebone neighbourhoods

The lights of Shaftesbury Avenue’s theatres lead the way to London’s glitzy playground. Dress up in your West End hotel for after-dark entertainment in swinging Soho’s grid of streets or Gerrard Street’s Chinatown quarter. Shoppers love Oxford Street’s mile-long stretch of flagship stores. Linger at the crossroads at Regent Street, which sections off posh Mayfair, before strolling west to the Marble Arch corner of Hyde Park. Marylebone hotel guests escape the crowds north in Regent’s Park for zoo animals and idyllic days on the boating lake.

Shopping in the West End, Soho, Mayfair and Marylebone

It’s window shopping only for most West End hotel guests on New Bond Street, where Asprey, Bulgari and Cartier never display their huge price tags. Personal shopping assistants will ply you with drinks and guide you off the rails in concessions in Selfridges on Oxford Street. Geeks discuss the latest gizmos at the Genius Bar in Regent Street’s mammoth Apple store. Step out of a hotel near Marylebone High Street for immaculate lifestyle makeovers at the Conran Shop and Cath Kidston.

Eating and drinking in the West End, Soho, Mayfair and Marylebone

Marylebone hotels are close to hidden-away St Christopher’s Place, where Carluccio’s and Café Rouge’s al fresco terraces spill on to the village-like square. Anything goes in confident Soho. Roll into your Soho hotel after late nights, or early mornings, in one of the party quarter’s themed bars. Cocoa-laced cocktails are served at Bar Chocolate on D’Arblay Street and Seventies retro blares from Old Compton Street’s Lab Bar. Get a taste of the F-word at Gordon Ramsay’s Maze and Murano restaurants tucked away in Mayfair’s back streets.

Culture and nightlife in the West End, Soho, Mayfair and Marylebone

Stay at a West End hotel for razzle dazzle at one of the long-running musicals, like The Lion King at the Lyceum and Chicago at Cambridge Theatre. In Leicester Square, the dark and dingy Comedy Store launched the careers of deadpan eccentrics like Paul Merton and Jack Dee. Watch prima ballerinas from your circle seats at the elegant Royal Opera House in Covent Garden, a short plié from your Soho hotel.
