    A hotel of great charm, style and comfort.
    From the moment we entered the hotel foyer with its welcoming real fire we knew we were in for a very different hotel experience from the large,modern and rather soulless hotels that are often the norm. The cosy panelled bar with another open fire is particularly enticing and there are several other small rooms in which to enjoy a drink or afternoon tea. We very much enjoyed dinners, a lunch and breakfasts is the lovely panelled dining room. It was a a real pleasure to be served at breakfast rather than experiencing the hubbub of a breakfast buffet. All our meals were of a very high standard, with breakfast really superb - a sole criticism of the latter is the marmalade which was extremely bland and not up to the standard of other ingredients, Our bedroom was charming, decorated in an attractive country house style and it had windows that open - a high spot to a country dweller like myself! Nice to have Occitane goodies in the bathroom just echoing the overall style and quality of the hotel. Very much look forward to a return visit.
    Dear ozySomerset I am delighted you enjoyed your recent stay and truly appreciate you taking the time to write such a thoughtful review. I am really pleased you enjoyed our hospitality and the unique characteristics of Durrants. We very much look forward to welcoming you back very soon. Yours Sincerely Ian McIntosh

    An institution which gives good value
    Durrants Hotel is a fine place to stay and we have used it for years: it is indeed the sort of truly calm and comfortable place that generates that sort of loyalty. Slightly eccentric and definitely not of the modern sharp elbow world. It has very fair pricing for a characterful Georgian town house hotel in the heart of the West End with ever helpful staff , seemingly in abundance. It has cherished its public rooms and little quiet nooks and crannies. Breakfast service in the splendid small panelled dining stretches till 11am and comes with lots of silver and linen. Very good eggs benedict and the like; also omelettes cooked with precision.Ask for a room at the back where it is quieter. Get terms to include breakfast or you will pay by the slice of toast, one of the elss welcome eccentricities. .
    Dear Wotan70 Thank you for your lovely review and choosing to stay at Durrants over the years. True to the hotel’s Georgian architecture and heritage, Durrants is a beautiful building to spend the day and evening. We are very pleased you enjoyed the unique characteristics of Durrants, our breakfast and hospitality and look forward to welcoming you back.

    Cosy and comfortable boutique hotel like a home away from home:)
    Very nice, cosy and comfortable boutique hotel. The environment of the hotel is very homely with friendly staff always willing to be at your assistance. It has comfortable bedrooms with attached bath, common lounge, library bar and restaurant. The restaurant serves in ornate sliver crockery and cutlery. Several meeting rooms for business travelers. A hotel with the old world charm! As it is a heritage hotel, the lifts are somewhat cramped and can accommodate maximum 4 persons.
    Dear catch2024 Thank you for taking the time to write your wonderful review and for highlighting the facilities Durrants has to offer. I am delighted you had a comfortable stay and the team made you feel at home. We very much look forward to welcoming you back very soon. Yours Sincerely Ian McIntosh

I first stayed here in 1985, and many times since. However the last time was preCovid, at least five years ago. Yet the Manager recognized me, gave me a better room than I paid for (and well before the official check-in time.) The hotel is in a great neighborhood, the restaurant is good, and the staff are helpful, without exception. And the history! It was established by a retired admiral 200 years ago, and in one of Patrick O’Brien’s seafaring novels, the hero stayed here. Back then they hunted deer in Regent’s Park. Thank you to Durrants for the warm welcome over the years.

Beautiful, family run hotel right next to Marylebone High Street. It has the quaintest atmosphere and full of wood panelling like an old country house. Full of antiques and old paintings on the walls. There is a nice little bar and lovely comfortable areas to sit and relax after a day out in London. It's right next to Marylebone High St with it's amazing shops and restaurants. Being right in the middle of London it's incredible how quiet the area can be. I can't recommend it highly enough. It really is a gem. We had a room without air con and it was a little warm. They immediately changed us to a wonderful air conditioned room and the air con was very quiet.

If I am not staying with friends or family -- they have very high standards so that does not happen often ho ho -- this is the place I love to lodge. Warm welcome, charming professional staff from general manager Ian McIntosh and his lieutenants to Neesa, Analisa and front office staff to Clive the concierge and his bellboys to the restaurant staff and maids make the stay a really wonderful experience and sum up the family owned aspect of the hotel. Rooms are very pleasant and look forward to resitng in after long walks round Regent's Park or wherever. Right in the heart of an area we love and so it is ideal. Just fabulous and so unpretentious. Chapeau to all!!!

We always stay at Durrants when we visit London and are never disappointed. It’s like coming home each time. The staff are great, the beds are really comfortable, the service and food excellent and the atmosphere warm and friendly. We hate large, corporate hotels and value this independently run hotel very much. Thanks all! See you again in July.

Durrant's is a totally English experience. If you are looking for a beautiful hotel with stylish rooms and cozy spots dotted throughout for a drink or pot of tea, Durrant's is your stop. We just loved our stay here, you'll know what I mean as soon as you walk through the front doors. It's quintessentially English and the decor reflects this. But not in a dusty old stuffy way, it's light and bright and friendly and warm. Our spacious room (202) had two huge windows overlooking the street, a fireplace, seating area, dressing room and good sized bathroom. The quaint timber lined bar is the perfect spot for a night cap. My only feedback to management? I think the concierge staff could be slightly more friendly and attentive .... "Good morning", "how was your day" etc. always make's one feel more at home. Thank you Durrant's I'll be recommending you to all.

Been coming here for many years. This time on second floor. No AC luckily not needed but if London gets any hotter avoid rooms on second floor or at least make sure your room has AC! Drinks in bar £19 for a small glass of cheap white wine with olives and nuts totally overpriced!

Excellent experience as always. The team at Durrants provide a fantastic service and go above and beyond. We’ve stayed at Durrants several times and each time they exceed expectations. The hotel is charming and the elements that make it special include not appearing to be a behemoth hotel chain and retaining original character. Comfortable beds and clean rooms. We always look forward to a stay at Durrants more than most London hotels.

Went for a trip in London and came across this hotel, We called in one night for a drink (wasn't staying there). The staff in the bar were very friendly and efficient. Katie especially was very helpful and gave me ideas on where to visit. Ranya the other bar person was polite and cheerful. They both made us feel very welcome and couldn't do enough for us.

The Durrants is the most charming hotel in London. I stayed last year, and plan to stay again this spring. I adored the creaky floorboards and the slant of the hallways. The hallways lead to the cutest bar, sitting rooms and dining rooms where you just want to curl up with a good friend and relax, have a drink and marvel over the gem of a hotel in the middle of London. It feels as if you are staying at your long-lost relative's home, who has incredibly good taste! If you want a fitness room, large spacious rooms with modern bathrooms, and other amenities, this is probably not the place for you. If you want a charming hotel with top-notch service, the Durrants is your hotel.
