Eat

The Lanesborough Grill is the hotel’s grand flagship restaurant, celebrated for its inventive take on modern British cuisine. Executive Chef Shay Cooper oversees a menu that puts British sourcing first, with seasonal game, seafood and heritage vegetables playing starring roles. Expect deft, imaginative cooking—a coronation crab starter might follow a glass of English sparkling wine, while mains such as Beef Wellington or Dover sole are prepared and presented with tableside flourish, offering genuine dining theatre. The Regency-era dining room itself is breathtaking, filled with daylight via a domed glass roof and alive with refined service, plush banquettes, and impeccably set tables. Afternoon Tea and Sunday Lunch are also highlights, making The Lanesborough Grill a destination for special occasions as well as everyday indulgence.

Every guest enjoys 24-hour butler service, and suites add living areas, bespoke amenities, and privileged extras such as chauffeured transfers. The aesthetic is classical yet reassuringly luxurious. Whether staying solo, as a couple, or with family, expect impeccable comfort and thoughtful touches throughout.

Retreat

When not dining or luxuriating in your plush guest room, you’ll find ample ways to savour the city’s charms.

The Lanesborough makes a magnificent base for exploring, feasting, and winding down in ultimate style.
