My husband and I were visiting London from Denmark and the afternoon tea at the Brown’s Hotel made our 4-day stay so special and unforgettable. The hotel was a beautiful jewel of the city and the interior and ambiance were so elegant, the food and tea were delicate and most delicious and the service was superb. I enjoyed friendly talking with a kind staff, Bianca. We have been to a number of afternoon/high tea places in different countries, but we were so happy that we had the very best and UK’s traditional afternoon tea experience at the Brown’s in London!

Lovely hotel, our room was comfortable, bathroom was updated, however overall room could use an uplift. Location made up for it! Turn down service, daily room service was excellent! Downside was (it is a personal preference) the mattress. Firm mattress, which feels like laying on top of the bed instead in bed. Every bone in my body was hurting, (for reference I am 112 lbs/50 kgs). Housekeeping tried to help with a topper, however a mattress like this is unfortunately not possible to change, it should be exchanged. If you share the bed with another person, every movement can be felt, there was literally no sleep possible, we stayed 5 nights. We loved the restaurant, reception, concierge and doorman (Civi) was absolutely excellent, so was Barbara at the reception.

Dear FamousStyle, Many thanks for sharing with us your positive feedback about our lovely Brown's Hotel, with our perfect location in the heart of Mayfair, and the excellent service provided all our team members around the hotel. I will be sure to pass on your kind words to Givi and Barbora, who I know will be as pleased as I am to see their hard work and excellent hospitality highlighted as such on this platform. I was however sorry to hear that you were not able to have a restful sleep during your time in residence with us. We continue to invest in a rolling product of interior design and renewing of hard and soft furnishings around the hotel, and I do hope to have the pleasure of your company again in the not too distant future, so we can provide a more comfortable stay. Thank you again for your valuable feedback, and we will look forward to your future visit. Best regards, Stuart P Johnson Managing Director

If you ask a well travelled, well connected—-and well heeled—-American where he tends to stay in London, the answer will invariably be, “Brown’s”—-and he’s right. The hotel is beautifully appointed, the rooms spacious and comfortable, the service flawless—-friendly, even jovial, thoughtful and attentive and caring without being in the least intrusive. I’m a convert. Still there are niggling doubts . The bathrooms are disappointing: The water pressure, particularly at the sinks, is simply inadequate, and the lighting above the sinks hopeless— even with the addition of an illuminated shaving mirror. I went on from London to a modest country hotel in Devon which, while incomparably simpler than. Brown’s, had bathrooms more user friendly. And then there was this: At checkout I was presented with a bill that added 60 pounds each day to the quoted room rate. When I inquired, I was told this was a “service charge”; when I expressed surprise, the clerk said it could be removed “if I wished.” I did—- perhaps this is the new normal , but the possibility of such a charge appeared nowhere in the room rate I was quoted or in my reservation confirmation—- it was just sprung on me from the blue. A rather bizarre business practice. (Although our breakfast was theoretically included in the room rate, a service charge appeared here too—- but I let that stand, as I am of course used to tipping on meals and was already feeling rather embarrassed.…

Dear alanscottus2017, Thank you for taking the time to share your impressions following your recent stay at Brown's. May I firstly thank you for your positive feedback about our beautiful hotel and facilities, and the warm, friendly and thoughtful service from all our team members. We truly appreciate your kind words. I was however sorry to hear that you felt disappointed with certain aspects of your recent stay with us. At Brown's, we have a wide range of room categories and due to the architecture of the building, all our rooms and suites are slightly different one from another, when it comes to layout and design. I trust our team would have done their utmost to address your concerns and find a room with a most suitable bathroom for you, had they been made aware of your disappointment, however please allow me to extend my sincere apologies. With regard to your valuable comments on the discretionary service charge, this is indeed a common practice for many other luxury hotels in London, and I do apologise if you felt this was not communicated to you properly. The room service charge is mentioned on our reservation confirmation letters, and our Front Office is also instructed to clarify this discretionary charge with our guests upon arrival. Regarding the food and beverage service charge, it is also clearly stated on all our menus. Nevertheless, as the name indicates, it is indeed discretionary, and will be removed from our guest bill upon request. Once again, I am sincerely sorry for any inconvenience this caused you. Thank you again for your valuable feedback, and with the desire to focus on more positive experiences, my team and I very much look forward to the opportunity to welcome you back on a future occasion. Yours sincerely, Stuart P Johnson Managing Director

We spent 5 nights at Browns in April 2022. While it is certainly on the pricier end of the spectrum of central London hotels, it absolutely exemplifies my personal definition of a 5 Star hotel. To me, it's a feeling. Of course all of the basics expectations must be met, but then, additionally, all of those little things you don't think about - a smile and hello from every single staff member, comfortable chairs in the bedroom, excellent lighting for reading, well stocked mini bar, well stocked bookcases , a "Welcome Home" from the doorman, and perhaps a hundred other touches I didn't notice, but all added to the experience. The location is perfect - we walked to Shaftesbury Ave to the theatre, to Churchill's War Rooms and Westminster Abbey, and to any number of restaurants and shops. We felt safe walking around the area at night. The hotel decor is beautiful, comfortable and understated. Be aware of the hotel character though - it is a combination of historic Georgian houses which means that the layout is not that of a planned hotel - it can be a bit higgle piggeldy with askew corridors and sloping floorboards - to me, this only added to the charm, but it will not be the preference of every guest. I booked one of the more inexpensive room categories and was shocked with how spacious our room was. We had no view to speak of (external walls and a disguised air conditioning unit), but I would eschew a view of a city street for a room that was more like a suite any day of the week. Two small anecdotes to give you a feel for the place. Firstly, we had a small issue with the airport transfer on arrival. It was trivial and forgotten as soon as we arrived at Browns. We did not complain. I happened to mention it when the management requested feedback after our stay, and we were refunded the full cost of the transfer immediately. Secondly, the housekeeping is immaculate. As anyone with airpods knows, they will bounce into the worst possible position when they fall. And so it was on our last night, at 2am, my left airpod merrily bounced off the carpet, and somehow exactly halfway under the bed. My beloved was already asleep, I knew it could be easily retrieved in the morning by housekeeping. However, I have much history with this particular left airpod and its exploits that I was too stubborn to leave it. I took the shoehorn from the wardrobe and eventually got it out. Why that's helpful to you? Let me tell you having experienced a solid 30 minutes poking around under the bed with my face mashed into the carpet... it is absolutely spotless.…

We spent our honeymoon at Brown's and everything was just perfect. The staff is fantastic, they organized flowers, champagne and a handwritten welcome note. We had stayed at Brown's before and staff members remembered our names. Everyone tries to make you feel really comfortable. (When I got back from my morning run, the doorman was welcoming me with a bottle of water. It's just a small gesture but one that makes all the difference.) All the staff without exception are wonderful and set the experience at Brown's apart but Francesca, the guest experience executive went over and beyond to make our honeymoon exceptional. Dinner at Charlie's, the hotel restaurant, was delightful. We highly recommend this Mayfair jewel and hope to be back in October.

Stayed for 5 nights. I think this is the best hotel I have recently stayed in while visiting London (others have been The Stafford, Dukes, the Wellesley, the Sofitel…and The Connaught (although that was during lockdown to be fair). Wonderful front desk staff who were very accommodating a early 1pm check-in so that we could shower before a 2pm meeting. The bed had a footboard attached to it and (as I am 6 foot 5) meant that it would be too small for me.. but with an hour a technician has unscrewed the footboard so I had unlimited leg room. Wonderful and something I have never seen before ! Super friendly door staff who make you feel like you are coming “home”. The bar stays open until 1am at the weekends. We will definitely be staying again !!
