80 guests
Mayfair’s family-owned Athenaeum Hotel prides itself on five-star luxury delivered with a personal warmth. The hotel’s boutique feel belies the number of bedrooms, and its established brand of elegant homeliness runs through to three subtly decorated meeting rooms, all providing abundant natural light. The largest of these, Hyde Park, works well for dinners and drinks receptions, and can be split into three distinct areas for small gatherings. The two smaller spaces will this year gain an art deco gloss as part of a relaunch. In other breaking news, the Galvin brothers are opening a restaurant on the ground floor in late May and will take over events catering too.

December 2024My wife and I had a blissful spa day at The Spa at The Athenaeum! The tranquil atmosphere instantly relaxed us, and our skilled therapists, Kelly and Sabrina, provided amazing back, neck and shoulder massages and full body wraps that left us feeling rejuvenated. The facilities were top-notch, with a peaceful relaxation area perfect for unwinding. This place provided the perfect escape from the city, and we highly recommend it to anyone seeking a truly indulgent and rejuvenating experience.

October 2024We had a delightful and memorable stay at your esteemed hotel last month. The suite we occupied was aesthetically pleasing and generously spacious, featuring a sizable bedroom, a dedicated dining area, and a comfortable sitting area. I especially appreciated the presence of a large mirror in the dining area, which added to the overall ambiance of the space. We hold your establishment in high regard and will undoubtedly choose to stay here again in the future. Furthermore, we will enthusiastically recommend your hotel to our acquaintances and associates.

November 2024I like the hotel and rooms’ interior. The rooms are spacious and clean. The house keeping and the concierge service are super stars. Especially Daniel who was very helpful, welcoming and attentive. The process of booking was a bit tricky, prices are widely varied through different channels and sometimes at no sense. During my stay, I contacted 4 different members of the reception, non of them was welcoming or responsive to my requests (except one for a minor request) . They said the computer system is a bit slow, and they need time to check, unfortunately for 2 days they did not consider my request or even call with an answer. I believe that better training is needed for a 5-star hotel reception. I didn’t like the en-suite bathroom, very classic and old. The most disappointing was the spa, it has very small sauna and steam room. They open only after 9 AM, which is too late!! The location is fine, but there are no supermarkets or pharmacies close by.

December 2024We were gifted a pre-booked room for one night at The Athenaeum Hotel, London for our anniversary and were a bit disappointed with our stay. The hotel was very centrally located in one of the most upmarket districts in London (Piccadilly) which worked well for getting around London. It was a lovely experience to experience hospitality, attentive staff who catered well to our needs, and mostly good food. We would recommend asking for balcony view access on the top floor as you check in to ensure you can enjoy the views from the top floor in the evenings. It’s a wonderful way to unwind in the evenings. The room was a bit on the smaller side, and the view wasn’t great, but it was still enough for us to stay comfortable most of the time. The bed was also extremely soft, with thick pillows, and this was not ideal. My wife didn’t have a good night’s sleep and woke up with shooting neck pain. For the price, we expected much better rooms. However, we were pleased to receive a celebratory cake for our anniversary prepared as we entered the room. It was a nice personal touch. The buffet we had for breakfast was also cold and a bit disappointing. The omelette we ordered from the menu was much better as was the avocado and harissa toast. The toast was delicious as was the Earl Grey tea. We thoroughly enjoyed the loose leaf tea we were served. Overall though, it’s worth visiting for the experience of staying in one of the reputed five-star Piccadilly hotels.

September 2024Came here for the spa day and cream tea. Cream tea was very nice - fresh scones with clotted cream and jam and choice of hot drink. The spa and treatment was OK not great... booked an hour treatment which included 30min back and shoulder massage, 30min body scrub and also booked a 30min Indian head massage. The treatment was either too gentle or too rough, not very relaxing. Probably the most expensive spa day I've booked but no where near as good as any of the other ones I've been to. The changing rooms were extremely cramped! There was only 1 other person in there but even still, was very tight for 2 people. The hot tub, sauna and steam room was all nice but again quite a small space. Service was excellent as expected. Hotel is visually appealing and luxurious, centrally located however very difficult to find parking nearby(ended up with a ticket unfortunately). Enjoyed the experience but wouldn't recommend and wouldn't return.
