“Couldn't be anything other than excellent”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 4, 2013

Visited this establishment during the Christmas period for drinks and snacks in the public bar area. The building itself from the outside is very Art-deco and looks wonderful, a stark contrast in design and look to its parent hotel The Dorchester which is opposite. Door staff very friendly and helpful. As you would expect from a hotel of this caliber it is very well finished in all areas, un-cluttered and you get a real feeling of class.

The bar area upstairs, which is long and narrow, benefits from great mood lighting, very comfortable bar stools and an amazing array of drinks. The cocktails are superb, with excellent attention to detail, food was first class. This is not a cheap place to visit and a place to go as a treat, especially if you are not a city banker ! Bar and waiting staff are first class, try the Kobe Beef sliders !!

“Fantastic”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 3, 2013 via mobile

Thank you to all at the 45, great 2 night stay, room was special a corner suite over looking Hyde park, furnishing top quality great bathroom and comfortable bed, service with a smile from all that helped us with our stay.
The cut was great, with good food, but the bar was the highlight with wonderful cocktails which is a joy to watch being made , and even better to drink.
45 park lane is now my number one hotel in London and my preferred choice for future stays.

“Fantastic !!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 14, 2013

Stayed here for one night only on New Years Eve but what a stay. We arrived early, well before normal check in time and not only was our room ready but we discovered we had been upgraded to a truly amazing Park Lane suite, very large and very stylish with great views over Park Lane and Hyde Park. All the furnishings and decor were beautiful and the bathroom was just stunning. All the staff we came across were very helpful and friendly. The hotel bar was stylish and the cocktails were excellent. We had a wonderful dinner at CUT (see separate review) and breakfast in the room was very good. I like to try different hotels when I visit London but I think I'll find it difficult to match this one.

Room Tip: Cross your fingers for an upgrade

“An excellent hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 5, 2013 via mobile

This place is really very good. The product itself is modern and cutting edge. The rooms contain all the equipment you could possibly need and there is a general feeling of opulence when staying here. The host concept sounds good on paper but is flawed in places. For example I failed to receive a pre arrival phone call and only met/spoke to my host once. That being said, staff including the door men were most welcoming and made me feel at ease. They bent over backwards to accommodate my needs, including late check out, champagne delivered to my room at an exact time etc.

The restaurant was a let down. Service was initially attentive but after the main courses I was left with my dessert menu for around 30 minutes, water glasses empty and wine glasses empty. It was left to myself to attempt to make eye contact with staff. This is dissapointing when the meal was a couple of hundred pounds for two courses and a bottle of wine.

Overall I was very impressed with the hotel but dissapointed with the restaurant. It does feel very special to stay here and I felt like it was a home away from home, I just left feeling rather short changed with the restaurant experience.

“SUPERB HOLIDAY !!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 31, 2012 via mobile

Situated ideally on Park Lane next to The Dorchester,  the '45 Park Lane' offers great views of Hyde Park & Mayfair from all its rooms and suites.

The service received by all departments was courteous, friendly and most importantly to the highest possible standards anyone would expect to receive and pampered in a great and exclusive hotel.

The culinary standards were exceptional  including the immaculate 'Park Lane breakfast' and the grills at the 'CUT' restaurant, Wolfgang Puck's debut restaurant in London.

Rooms were comfortable and very beautifully designed providing the latest technology including an i-pad, Bang & Olufsen tv sets, bed-side touch screens controlling lights, window blinds & air condition and not to forget the mirror tv in the bathroom.

As read somewhere, this is a hotel for tomorrow and I couldn't agree more. The Dorchester Collection should be really pleased and very proud of their latest addition. I suppose it is a matter of time to see the word 'The' with capital 'T' being added in front of the hotel's present name making it 'The 45 Park Lane'.
A superb hotel highly recommended to anyone readind this.
