The Washington Mayfair Hotel, Art Deco hotel in Mayfair, London.
The Washington Mayfair Hotel is an Art Deco building located at 5 Curzon Street with decorative bas relief elements and geometric patterns across its facade. The property contains 178 rooms including 18 suites and a two-bedroom penthouse suite.
The hotel was established in 1913 following the conversion of several boarding houses that occupied the site during the 1800s. This transformation marked the area's shift from residential lodging to a center for upscale hospitality.
The dining room serves traditional British afternoon tea and reflects the hotel's role in London's social scene as a place where people gather for meals and conversation. This ritual remains an important part of how guests experience the establishment today.
The property provides direct access to Park Lane and is positioned for easy exploration of central London's main attractions. The central location makes walking to nearby sites straightforward, though the surrounding area tends to be busy during the day.
Indian actor Dev Anand passed away at the hotel, while British singer David Whitfield was discovered there in 1953 and began his recording career. The building thus holds connections to both Indian cinema and British music history in an unusual way.
