About the hotel
In the heart of the capital, at the edge of London's magnificent Hyde Park, this privately owned hotel is full of charm and character, yet warm and welcoming.
In London’s celebrated West End, this beautiful historic building overlooks Hyde Park.

Buses run regularly from just in front of the hotel to Oxford Street and Notting Hill.
The good facilities include private parking (at an additional cost), free wireless internet access throughout, 24-hour room service, the charming Rose Garden Restaurant and a relaxing bar with the atmosphere of a private club.
Full of charm, character and originality, the hotel has a fascinating history including some notable residents. The atmosphere is of refined elegance, complemented by attentive and yet unobtrusive service.
The London Elizabeth was originally built in 1850 as 3 private houses in a new terrace of elegant family homes on Lancaster Gate Terrace, as it was then known, in the area of Bayswater, London.
Today, you can savour the charm, character and atmosphere of a bygone age, whilst enjoying modern facilities and the high levels of service of a contemporary hotel. The original Victorian structure is complemented by the hotel’s attractive decoration. The décor is unique in each room, with floral prints and antique-style furnishings.
Privately owned and run, the hotel has a cosy feel and a charming, unique atmosphere that makes a refreshing change from London’s big chain hotels. The great location and convenient access to the city’s transport network make the hotel a great choice, whatever your reason for visiting London.
Business guests can take advantage of the private meeting room, which is traditional and comfortable. The meeting room looks out over the garden terrace and offers complimentary high-speed internet access.
After a hard day’s work or a long day sightseeing and exploring London, you can enjoy a drink at the bar, by the open fireplace. The bar is exceptionally relaxing, with the atmosphere of a private club, making it perfect for a pleasant chat, an evening cocktail, a quiet drink or a late nightcap.
The hotel’s garden terrace is always open and is accessed through the bar. In fine weather, you can enjoy breakfast, afternoon tea, an evening aperitif or even dinner by candlelight. This little piece of the countryside in the middle of London is sure to lift your spirits.
