A Review of The London Marriott Grosvenor Square
Tucked into one of Mayfair's quieter corners, the London Marriott Hotel Grosvenor Square offers something that's getting increasingly rare in central London: space, calm, and a reassuring sense of familiarity. It's understated, polished, and gently proud of its heritage. This was the very first Marriott (the 'Original' Marriott) to open in London back in 1985, and while it's had several updates since then, it still carries that original sense of welcome. There's something comforting about walking into a place that feels like it's seen the city grow around it and kept up without ever trying too hard. If you're a Friends fan, you might recognise the hotel from 'The One With Ross's Wedding.' It's the very door Chandler and Joey emerge from, camera in hand. It's a subtle claim to fame, but one that adds to the character of the place. The location is one of its biggest assets. Just a five-minute walk from Oxford Street, yet far enough to escape the noise. You're surrounded by some of London's best boutiques, cafés, and leafy squares. It's ideal for visitors who want central access without the usual buzz of tourist-heavy areas. Check-in was smooth and warm, and the staff throughout the stay were thoughtful without being intrusive. There's an open square-shaped courtyard at the heart of the property, giving the whole space a sense of airiness, especially refreshing during London's rare sunny spells. I was lucky to catch one of those days, and the whole neighbourhood seemed to soften under the light. I stayed in a spacious guest room with a small balcony. A quiet outdoor nook like that in the middle of Mayfair feels like a bonus. The interiors are contemporary, yet they still nod to the hotel's older charm. Good lighting, a generous work desk, and a bed that's hard to leave in the morning. If you're a Marriott Bonvoy Platinum member or above, I recommend booking a Club-level room for access to the M Club. It's a peaceful space, especially for business travellers, with a great breakfast spread and all-day snacks. Yes, waffles were included, and yes, they were excellent. The hotel has also played a role in London's dining scene. It was once home to Maze by Gordon Ramsay, and today it continues that legacy with the Gordon Ramsay Bar & Grill and the more recently opened Lucky Cat by Gordon Ramsay. Both are worth a visit, whether you're staying at the hotel or not. The Luggage Room, the hotel's hidden speakeasy, also deserves a mention. It's discreet and dimly lit, the kind of place that feels like a local secret even when it isn't. The gym is well-equipped and neatly laid out: not a forgotten corner, but a real fitness centre. That's something I always appreciate in a hotel, especially on longer stays or work trips. Between that, the M Club, and the consistent service, it's easy to feel looked after here without being fussed over. The Marriott Grosvenor Square isn't flashy, and that's part of its appeal. It offers a grounded, comfortable experience in a historic part of London, with everything you need close by. It's been modernised, but not in a way that erases its personality. Whether you're coming to London for shopping, shows, meetings, or simply to enjoy the city at your own pace, this hotel fits the mood. You check out feeling rested, well-fed, and like you've had your own little pocket of Mayfair for a while. I'll absolutely return. For bookings and enquiries, contact the London Marriott Grosvenor Square on +44 20-74931232
