An intimate and protected location

Mayfair is without doubt one of the best neighbourhoods in London, a stone's throw from the Ritz, Old Bond Street and Green Park. The area gives off an aura of aristocracy, elegance dominates its streets, appearance here is a way of life.
At the heart of this labyrinth of tasteful architecture, Duke's has naturally found its place.
The hotel has remained an intimate place, without wasteful showiness, true to its traditional roots. Nuzzled at the end of a blind alley, it is only the privileged and the regulars who are wise to its assets. One of the charms of the hotel is the series of little lounges, lined up one after another, each with its own special style. A turn of the century atmosphere defying fustiness reigns throughout, filling your days with sweet nostalgia.

Nooks and crannies for all your moods

From 6pm, the bar, a location well loved by the British, is open for the best martinis in the capital, a fact of which the barman is not a little proud! In a symphony of black and white, a fire crackling in the grate (imitation perhaps, but indispensable), you can settle in comfortably to sip your drink and solve the world's problems.
If however, you would prefer tea, it is served in one of the lounges dedicated to this British ritual. So why not succumb to a delicious afternoon tea with scones and marmalade? Several wonderful little lounges, with soft lighting, small paned windows, deep, comfortable settees and soft cushions beckon you. This is what you came for, a charming second home, with a timeless atmosphere. Little nooks give couples the privacy they seek, where one can isolate oneself to read or exchange the latest gossip in private. Here time unfolds at its own gentle pace.
The impeccable staff is attentive, without being obsequious, meeting all your needs with a smile and without delay. Perfect!

Stylish décor, with a British touch

In the evening, if you don't have the energy to go out, it is well worth going down to dine in the restaurant. In a modern setting, the little dining room boasts beautiful windows and a more than competent menu. The well-spaced tables and armchairs make for a much appreciated intimacy once again.
The recently renovated bedrooms now benefit from a more contemporary styling, but with an inimitable British touch, because of course, that is where we are! Natural materials, classically styled furniture and hues of cream or pastel maintain the general atmosphere, all part of the success of the place.

If you would like to exercise during your stay, there is a small but well equipped fitness centre at your disposal, with an attentive and well-trained staff.

In a twinkling of an eye, Duke's can become your long dreamt of second home, which just for a weekend, is thoroughly affordable!
