Its astonishing variety of restaurants, bars, shops, nightlife and culture means that it attracts people of all backgrounds day and night. This outward-looking mindset extends to Berkeley Square itself. Unlike many London Squares, the beautiful garden is open to the public. It hosts series of events and exhibitions throughout the year, bringing the local business and residential communities together. Exclusively 20 Berkeley Square House Definitively Mayfair 21 01 Annabel’s Perhaps Mayfair’s defining strength is its extraordinary 02 Amazonica London ability to reinvent itself and stay relevant. It’s apparent in 03 Thom Sweeney 04 Halcyon Gallery the dozens of restaurant openings, both home-grown and international, the new generation of Savile Row tailors, the thriving contemporary art scene, and the re-energised members’ clubs. It’s this spirit of innovation which has driven Mayfair’s many incarnations – first as a residential area, then as a business district, and now as London’s best place to work, live and play. 02 01 Reinventing 03 Tradition 04 22 Berkeley Square House Definitively Mayfair 23 A 5 0 1 R O B E R T S T B 5 0 4 O THE REGENT’S PARK U T E R C I R 0 1 A 5 E A C R T E R E R L S T U Tube stations Bakerloo line Central line 5 minute walk – Green Park Elizabeth line – Central, Victoria, Bakerloo lines Jubilee line 10 minute walk Piccadilly line – Oxford Circus Overground – Central, Victoria and Bakerloo lines S T Victoria line O R D O X F 12 minute walk OXFORD – Piccadilly Circus CIRCUS – Piccadilly and Bakerloo lines Transport times BOND Travel times provided by TFL STREET HANOVER based on quickest SQUARE 3 mins – Victoria journey time from 12 MINUTES either Green Park or Bond Street T R N S E 6 mins – London Bridge E X O G T W D D K S A O O M E B R B N 7 mins – King’s Cross & St.Pancras O T International T N S R S GROSVENOR O D T E N S V SQUARE R O S 12 mins – Liverpool Street G T T 5 MINUTES R S N O 13 mins – Canary Wharf V E O S G R P E R BRUTON PLACE U P B R U T O N S T O 34 mins – Heathrow L PICCADILLY BERKELEY D CIRCUS M O U N T S T SQUARE B O N D BERKELEY ST Impeccable H I L L S T S T P Connections A C H A R L E S S T R ST JAMES’S K B O L T O N S T S Mayfair is one of London’s most central and best C L A R G E S S T T connected locations, walkable from across the West L J A A M End.

  • The Mayfair Collection, Maddox Street W1
    UNDERSTATED ELEGANCE IN LONDON W1 HIGH LONDON LONDON’S HOME OF LUXURY Known across the world as London’s most exclusive enclave, Mayfair sits at the very heart of the West End. Home to boutique shopping, fne dining and the city’s largest concentration of luxury hotels, Mayfair has for centuries been the must have address for London’s elite. This district bordered by Park Lane, Regent Street, Oxford Street and Piccadilly, has a rich history of both style and substance at the centre of London life. Mayfair is a special part of this cosmopolitan city, with a reputation as deserved as it is renowned. MAYFAIR PAST TIMELESS WESTMINSTER ELEGANCE Originally named for the annual fortnight-long May Fair, Mayfair has been one of London’s most famed and prestigious areas for centuries – the district’s oldest cottage was believed to date from 1618. Most of the area was frst developed between the mid- seventeenth and eighteenth centuries when what had previously been no more than felds and farmland was recast as a fashionable residential district. The area’s early development was almost entirely owned by just a handful of London’s wealthy families, including the Grosvenors, Berkeleys and Burlingtons, names whose infuence can still be detected centuries later in the names of famous local squares and arcades. IAN FLEMING English author, journalist and naval intelligence offcer, best known for creating the legendary James Bond. OSCAR WILDE Irish writer, poet, wit and general cultural icon, Wilde was one of London’s most popular playwrights. JIMI HENDRIX One of the most infuential electric guitarists in the history of popular music and one of the most celebrated musicians of the twentieth century.

It is populated by the wealthy and occasionally, perhaps, the not-so-wealthy; however, it would appear that most night-time visitors are not spending with an eye to their budget, at least as indicated by their transport choices. There is a preference for transport by Black Cabs and private cars: not Night Buses, the Night Tube, or even minicabs. This is very non- typical of nightlife patron behaviour in London. There are few licensed premises marketed straightforwardly as bars or nightclubs, but many restaurants with high alcohol (wet-)sales themes and that offer disc jockey entertainment and spaces to dance.
