Set in the heart of Mayfair, Brown's is one of the most historic hotels in London. Founded in 1837 as London's first ever hotel, Brown's was opened by Lord Byron's butler, James Brown, to provide 'genteel' accommodation for discerning people. Brown's has always had an air of exclusivity and refinement, which has been further enhanced since its £24 million restoration. Sophistication and classic English style are the hallmarks of the legendary Brown's Hotel, which joined the Rocco Forte Collection of luxury hotels on July 3rd, 2003. Composed of 11 Georgian town houses, all 117 bedrooms (including 29 suites) have been individually designed with a sophistication that has become the trademark of a Rocco Forte hotel, as has the warm and personal service. The interiors are contemporary and have a real sense of style, while retaining much of their original, quintessentially English elegance, incorporating all modern comforts, such as individually controlled air-conditioning, flat screen LCD televisions and broadband internet connections. Brown's is one of the most intimate and charming hotels in London.

The Albemarle: Executive Chef, Lee Streeton offers a mouth-watering a la carte menu of great British classics, using only the finest seasonal ingredients. While the restaurant retains its clubby feel with the original wood paneling, the walls are adorned with the best British art including pieces by Tracey Emin, Rankin and Bridget Riley, along with the 1930s lighting and banquette booths offer a lighter more contemporary twist.

The English Tea Room serves one of the most famous afternoon teas in London and it is from here that Agatha Christie wrote 'At Bertram's Hotel'. Offering a wide choice of teas, finger sandwiches, freshly made scones with clotted cream and strawberry jam, as well as home-made cakes and patisseries; it is the perfect place to retire to at the end of the day.

The Donovan Bar: pays homage to British photographer Terence Donovan and is lined with his iconic prints. This fashionable bar is also decorated with contemporary furnishings, wooden floors and the original stained glass window from the 1837 hotel provides the backdrop to the Bill Amberg bar. Live jazz is performed here Monday to Saturday from 9pm to midnight.
