Grand Residences by Marriott - Mayfair-London

The accommodation impresses with exceptional cleanliness, comfortable beds, and high-quality amenities. Guests appreciate the convenient location near attractions and the attentive staff. Well-equipped kitchens add value.

A vacation ownership property in an Edwardian style townhouse. Our suite was well sized with a bedroom, living room, and a small kitchenette and bathroom. Given the differences in sleeping patterns in our family having the two rooms (bed and living) was very nice though having the extra space does add to the price. The kitchenette is also nice as we could easy make breakfast for ourselves each day; it is also set up with a microwave, stove top, refrigerator, and many typical kitchen necessities (glassware, silverware, plate ware, pots & pans). The property is located in the expensive area of Mayfair, not far from Oxford Street and Hyde Park. Walking around, besides seeing all the charming houses, you'll get used to seeing many many very expensive cars not seen in most neighborhoods. It is NOT an easy walking distance to some typical tourist attractions such as Tour of London, St. Paul's Cathedral, Covent Garden. Kensington Palace, etc. If those are what your vacation is about you'd be better served to stay in a location closer or become an expert on public transportation. You can walk to Buckingham Palace, Big Ben and Westminster Abbey but be prepared for a good long walk. The staff at the Grand Residence are exceptional! They don't have an onsite restaurant (though there are plenty of restaurants in the area) but they do provide room service at a good price with delicious tasting food.

Unfortunately, we could only stay one night as we were heading on to Australia. This was our second visit and we selected a deluxe room … very impressive accommodation!! Beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean … amazingly comfortable. The hotel team were all excellent and the concierge team’s service was second to none. It’s well worth having the room service breakfast … well worth the money.
