The Ritz London

Opened by César Ritz in 1906, The Ritz London is one of the world’s most famous hotels, a Louis XVI-style palace on Piccadilly overlooking Green Park.

Afternoon tea in the gilded Palm Court is a bucket-list experience, and The Ritz Restaurant, with its chandeliers and garden views, holds a Michelin star. Rooms and suites are dressed in classic gold, cream and pastel tones.

For an anniversary, a milestone birthday or a truly grand weekend in London, few addresses can match it.
