"Why, Sir, you find no man, at all intellectual,
who is willing to leave London. No, Sir, when a man is tired of London, he is tired of life; for there is in London all that life can afford."
— Samuel Johnson
The Dorchester
When it opened, it was said that The Dorchester occupied the most prestigious acre and a half of real estate in the world, in the heart of Mayfair, overlooking Hyde Park.
Today the hotel has undergone stunning renovations which add a new vibrancy and it continues to welcome celebrities, world leaders and society with the same gracious style that it has for the past 75 years.
With rooms of exceptional grace and comfort all giving views over Hyde Park or the hotel’s landscaped terraces. Suites range in size from the Junior and Small Suites to the generous Dorchester Suites and the famous Oliver Messel Suite. Large, pampering bathrooms in Italian marble echo the art deco period of the hotel's origins.
The Dorchester is the place to meet and celebrate. Any event assumes a special distinction - a grand banquet or less formal luncheon, business meeting or conference, private party, dinner or wedding. Whether for five or 500 people, the organisation combines detail and imagination to ensure that every function is well remarked and happily remembered.
