The Metropolitan

Location.

The cobbled streets and narrow lanes make a welcome respite from the grandeur of Mayfair's architecture.  Shepherd Market is located 500 metres behind the hotel, and is home to some of Mayfair's best pubs and restaurants.

Expert Tip. Bathrooms are in marble and frosted glass, with COMO Shambhala toiletries, and either bathtubs and showers or walk-in showers. All offer cable television with pay movies, phones with voicemail, high-speed wireless Internet connections, CD and DVD juke boxes, minibars, and safes. Views are of Hyde Park or Mayfair. Rooms are lined with pear-wood panelling and feature suede upholstery, pure Egyptian cotton sheets and goose down duvets.  The 150 air-conditioned guestrooms are located over 10 storeys and are decorated in shades of taupe and cream, with purple and aubergine accents.

Guestrooms.

Hyde Park lies opposite the hotel and provides a variety of sporting opportunities, including jogging, horse-riding and a boating lake. The bar has decadent red leather seating and moody lighting. The Met Bar is also a favourite celebrity haunt, where Armani-clad staff mix an array of bespoke Martinis. The house speciality is Black Cod with Miso. Nobu is the Michelin-starred restaurant favoured by the celebrity set, and serves a mix of Peruvian-Japanese dishes.

The Metropolitan houses two of London's hippest destinations. Business guests can make use of the conference rooms and a secretarial service. A valet parking service is on offer; cost is around 35 GBP per day. Hotel staff can advise visitors on where to go in the capital, including tips on restaurants, new shows and the best shops. The COMO Shambhala Urban Escape offers a menu of Asian-inspired holistic treatments, including the Jet Lag Therapy, Thai massages and Chinese Tui'Na massage.
Hotel Features. The gold-card boutiques of Bond Street and genteel streets of Mayfair are 300 metres away.  Metropolitan London is a fashionable design hotel situated on exclusive Park Lane and overlooking Hyde Park.
