Fodor's Review:
Founded in 1837 by James Brown, Lord Byron's "gentleman's gentleman," this hotel made up of 11 Georgian town houses holds a treasured place in London society. After renovations closed the venerable spot for more than a year, Margaret Thatcher hosted the reopening in 2005. The transformation is extraordinary. Public spaces once laden with chintz are now chic and contemporary. Everything is done up in cool neutral tones of coffee and cream; beds are new and firm; bathrooms are filled with marble and high-end bath products. All rooms have broadband and office space. The staff is still exceedingly professional and helpful. It's still Brown's, only better.
