Beautiful hotel, old-London atmosphere
Brown's is a beautiful old-London style hotel that has been wonderfully renovated within the last few years. The Mayfair location can't be beat, the rooms are luxurious though vary widely in size (all have the same amenities) and the staff is the definition of excellence. Most rooms have sofas/sitting areas, spa-style bathrooms and great finishing touches. It's an expensive hotel but worth it's cost and a great location for a business traveller. Tea or drinks in the bar is a definite must if time permits.
Great Hotel, Great Service, in the Center of London
This is one of the top hotels for servie and location. Location: Onle block from Piccadilly St, between Bond and Dover. Five minute walk from Shepherds Market if you are up for good food. Five minutes walk in the opposite direction to Trafalgar Sq. Rooms: I saw criticism of their rooms in previous comments and I find this criticism unfounded. While the room size will depend on the rate you pay, all romms I stayed at were comfortable and reasonable size. See pictures of the room I am staying in now. Beds: Heavenly.... more
Unexpectedly Average
We stayed at Brown's for three nights. While the neighborhood is convenient, the hotel was unexpectedly average. The room decor was a bit understated and lacked personality. The highlight of the room was the bed, which was heaven to sleep in. Breakfast was average and we were over charged for items and brought incorrect items as well. My partner's massage booking was bungled and he didn't receive the services he'd initially booked. I asked for an voltage converter, and received an archaic looking piece of equipment which promptly... more
Great hotel
A great night in luxury. We were upgraded because as the rather indiscreet receptionist told us the hotel was only at 17% occupancy and last month was 'even worse'. Anyway, whether it was the rarity of guests or not, our stay could not have been better. An amazing suite, wonderful surroundings, friendly but not casual staff who went the extra mile in all respects. Highly recommended.
London Gem
Stayed at the Brown's for one night. Was greeted warmly at the entrance and shown the way to reception. Staff was very friendly and informative. We were given a short tour of the hotel before being shown to our rooms. The staff member showed me all ammenities of the room before leaving. I attempted to give him a tip but was told that this was not neccesary. Classy.. Room was on the 5th floorand was very nicely decorated. Bathrooms was roomy and nely refurbished. Comfortable bed with down comforters. Very good service through our entire stay... more
Our new favorite hotel
We have been traveling to London for some time, and had the luxury of staying in many of London's better hotels. We have never had a true favorite, until we decided to stay at Brown's. The hotel is well located near Oxford street and easy to catch the tube at Bond st or a taxi. The hotel spans 2 streets Albermarle and Dover streets, while in a busy part of London, these 2 streets are realitively quiet and peaceful. The hotel itself upon entering it is very understated, with reception being located near the center of the hotel. The... more
Warm Hospitality with Style
Upon arrival we received a very warm welcome, and appreciated good hospitality throughout from the management and staff during our entire stay. Our suite was magnificent, with a bathroom to die for. We had a wonderful traditional dining experience, including smoked salmon (carved at the table) and particularly enjoyed the potted shrimps together with some interesting dishes from the grill. To sum up, this is a great hotel and we would recommend it due to all the above mentioned points, and of course it's fabulous location for Bond Street... more
Minimalist designer fails to provide storage
We stayed at Browns Hotel in August 2006, anxious to experience the much advertised makeover. We found the public areas delightful, well staffed, with a sprinkling of celebrities coming and going to tea in the afternoons. The glitz and glamour of traditional London in the public areas is complemented in the rooms by a very stylish minimalist decor. On first viewing the room is outstanding in its appearance. Once you are inside with two suitcases and a couple of pieces of hand luggage, it is very apparent that there is virtually no... more
timeless style, pure quality
This is simple, timeless style for intelligent people. During my 24-hour stay, I quickly felt at home, could find what was were. The bedroom light switches are simply switches, not complicated electronic panels. I found and could work the safe, the shower controls. At the desk, broadband was instant, light was good. The timeless effect of antiques, serious hardback books as well as current top international glossy magazines was mentally elevating. Dinner was that rare classic, proper historic English food... more
Afternoon Tea
Me and another 2 friends of mine went to Browns on a Monday aternoon to try their new service. We had been already in other London´s hotel having Afternoon Tea, but this one is far form a 5* service Eventhough we new that it was quite late, they didn´t have any problems into allocated us in a nice table and offeref us their champagne tea option. Well, everything seemed to go ok until we realised that no member of staff was taking care of us as our cups there not filled up, our asthray was not exchange for a new one (we are... more
