“The Athenaeum distinguishes itself with an array of thoughtful touches, especially for families, and it's clear that personalized service extends beyond standard luxury. Its position opposite Green Park also places guests steps from both natural beauty and Buckingham Palace. I believe this hotel delivers a genuinely considerate experience in a prime London location.”

nice stay with minor hiccup
gin cocktail warm mixologist good space
i particularly enjoyed the gin cocktail masterclass. alessandro, a warm mixologist, expertly tutored us. we made a french 75, clover club and dry martini, and had canapes. i liked the amount of space in the apartment, especially for a young family of four.
the sink in the bathroom was dripping underneath. also the bath did not work correctly because the stopper was broken. water kept draining out, inconvenient.

The doorman, Daniel, greeted us warmly and remembered our names. He also gave helpful recommendations for local dining. Pedro at the front desk was attentive, our visit was flawless.
The shower leaked quite badly. The rooms seemed dated for the price I paid. I also found parking to be quite expensive at £55.
