Waiter/Waitress

Montcalm Mayfair

United by timeless style and peerless service, Montcalm
Collection is London’s compendium of luxury hotels. Housed in elegant Georgian
townhouses, an 18th-century brewery, heritage headquarters and a diamond-shaped
skyscraper, each hotel reveals a different chapter in the city’s story. The
hotels in the collection include a historic brewery, reimagined as a vibrant
modern hotel: Montcalm Brewery. A storied city-slicker, housed in the former
headquarters of the Royal Mail: Montcalm Royal London House. A property with a
bold new perspective at Montcalm East, part of Marriott’s Autograph Collection.
And a duo of mindful hotels which set a slower pace: Inhabit, Southwick Street
and Inhabit, Queen’s Gardens, both part of Design Hotels.

Our flagship hotel is on the brink of a bold new era. Its
Grade II-listed building on the cusp of Park Lane has been sensitively
refreshed by architects Holland Harvey. Interiors are being rejuvenated by
Studio Mica and Studio Est. We have added a new signature restaurant helmed by
a world-famous chef, alongside a dapper lounge and bar. Communal areas,
bedrooms and suites have all been artfully redesigned; our spa and Grand
Ballroom will re-emerge as modern icons.

Conscious, cultured, characterful, and considerate, Montcalm
Mayfair is a five-star hotel set on a historic crescent that sits proudly at
the top of Park Lane, steps from Hyde Park and the West End, with a toe in
Marylebone, bringing a fresh, holistic hospitality approach to London luxury.
The respectful, sensitive full restoration includes a wellness space,
community-welcoming public spaces and a restaurant helmed by an
internationally-acclaimed chef.
