Introducing Faces of The Athenaeum.

First up, Daniel. If you’ve stayed with us before, there’s every chance you’ll remember him. He knows the regulars, has a recommendation for almost anything in London, and somehow always knows exactly when a guest needs a hand.

This time, we’re turning the spotlight his way.

Plant led, flavour first

Our vegetarian dishes at 116 aren’t there simply to tick a box. They’re built around seasonal produce, bold flavour and the kind of thoughtful cooking that appeals whether you eat vegetarian every day or just fancy letting the vegetables take centre stage for once.

Fashion Week looks good from here.

A drink in hand, the latest collections within reach and Mayfair just outside the door.

This September, The Athenaeum puts you in the right place for London Fashion Week, both on and off the runway.

Meet our supplier, H.G. Walter.

Long before a dish reaches the table at 116, its story has already begun.

For us, that means working with suppliers who understand the value of provenance, patience and craft. H.G. Walter’s expert butchers source exceptional British meat from trusted farms, selecting and ageing each cut with the care needed to bring out its very best flavour.

It’s this shared respect for produce that makes the partnership such an important one for The Athenaeum. We know where our ingredients come from, who is behind them, and why that matters when they finally reach the plate.

London always gives you a reason to stay a little longer.

One more wander through Mayfair. One more dinner at 116. One more morning without checkout on the agenda.

Book early and enjoy three nights for the price of two.

The best way to experience London isn’t always to be out in it.
Sometimes it’s pressing pause.
A book. A comfortable chair. Green Park beyond the window.
The city will be waiting whenever you’re ready to return.

Getting ready should feel just as enjoyable as going out.

That’s why our Penthouse includes thoughtful touches like a Dyson Airwrap, giving you everything you need to ease into the day, or the evening ahead.

Because luxury lives in the details you didn’t have to think about.

Returning to your suite should feel like coming home, only better.

A bath already running. Paul Smith amenities within reach. The lights of Mayfair beginning to glow outside your window.
Sometimes, the most memorable part of London is the moment you step away from it.

At The Athenaeum, exceptional hospitality has never been about a single moment. It’s found in everything that happens before, during and long after you check in.

We’re delighted to have been recognised as an AA Red Star Hotel, placing us among a select group of hotels recognised for outstanding quality, hospitality and service.

A heartfelt thank you to our incredible team for making this possible.

Summer is better when there’s something for everyone.

From mornings in Green Park and afternoons exploring London’s most loved museums to family dinners and evenings spent unwinding together, every day starts and ends at The Athenaeum.

With interconnecting rooms and spacious Residences featuring separate living areas and fully equipped kitchens, little ones have room to play, parents have space to unwind, and the whole family can enjoy London together, all from our Mayfair doorstep.

Some menus tell you what’s on the plate. Ours tells you where summer should be spent.

This season, that looks like our terrace, something fresh from the kitchen and an afternoon that doesn’t need an end time.
