Overall Rating (4 out of 5)

Piccadilly & Leicester Square are home to the most famous landmarks and busiest night-time spots in London. Heavily influenced by the world of entertainment, local attractions include the Criterion Theatre, London Pavilion and major music stores Virgin and HMV. Spend some time in one of the pavement cafes watching the area’s sparkling neon signs illuminate crowds of revellers heading for an evening out in the West End.

Leonard Cohen at The O2

A customer from Superbreak who stayed at 4* The Cavendish London in Mayfair wrote this review.

Nights in London don't come any better than this. I happened to check into The Cavendish the night that Jermyn Street lights were being switched on. I was handed two drinks by rather posh tailors before ever even getting to the hotel My room was superb. I was on the 15th floor with spectacular views over London. I could clearly see The BA London Eye lit up and other famous landmarks. The O2 was an easy tube ride from Green Park station. The concert was sublime. I had heard Leonard Cohen was good, but his show was in a class of its own. If it was on again tonight I would go! Breakfast overlooking Fortnum and Mason was a bit special, and I sneaked in a bit of Christmas shopping before heading home. That night in London scores 10 out of 10.

Cavendish recommended

A customer from SOLIHULL who stayed at 4* The Cavendish London in Mayfair wrote this review.

The food at the Cavendish is first rate, and the manners and attitude of the staff impeccable. The location is also very convenient. (It's just a shame people have to fall for the advice of "design consultants", isn't it? A sink with a tap is just too boring and downmarket I suppose. You have to have a silly lever and stand in front of a bowl like something at the dentists. But don't let that put you off an extremely good hotel!)

Short Break in London

A customer from Superbreak who stayed at 4* The Cavendish London in Mayfair wrote this review.

This is one of my favourite London hotels so I am biased. Modern decor, great bedrooms, excellent air conditioning and comfortable beds are all provided. Good TV and easy radio via the TV is great for the morning news. Midweek breakfast is cooked to order whilst at weekends a good buffet style system is in operation. The location opposite Fortnum and Mason’s on Jermyn St cannot be bettered for the leisure customer. I always book my Mum into this hotel.
