Durrants Hotel Guest Reviews
Write a review
Step into understated British charm at Durrants Hotel, a delightful 18th-century property tucked away in the peaceful Marylebone neighborhood. Just a 5-minute stroll from Oxford Street and within walking distance of Marble Arch Underground Station, this hotel blends traditional elegance with modern convenience. With its antique furnishings, cozy fireplaces, and warm hospitality, it’s a refined retreat in the heart of London.
Concert-goers appreciate Durrants Hotel for its quiet location that’s still incredibly central. You’re just a short walk or tube ride from many of London’s top music venues, yet far enough away to enjoy a peaceful night’s sleep. The 24-hour room service is a lifesaver after a late gig, and the hotel’s classic bar offers a mellow space to unwind post-show. With flexible transport links nearby, getting to and from events is hassle-free.
After a night out, enjoy 24/7 room service or relax with a drink in the elegant lounge bar. Durrants Restaurant offers refined dining options, and there are plenty of walkable eateries in the Marylebone area for a late bite. If you’ve had a late night, you’ll appreciate breakfast served at a leisurely pace the next morning.
While Durrants itself leans more toward quiet sophistication, you’re just minutes from buzzing nightlife in Soho and Fitzrovia. Whether you prefer a craft cocktail bar or a laid-back pub with local flavor, options abound. The hotel bar is ideal for a nightcap in a calm setting.
Guests love the hotel’s old-world charm, calling it “quintessentially British” and “a hidden gem.” Many highlight the friendly staff, spotless rooms, and convenient location near shops, eateries, and transport. The lounge and public areas are praised for being cozy and inviting—perfect for pre- or post-concert relaxation.
Some rooms do not have air conditioning, so warm nights might be a bit stuffy. The traditional decor may feel a bit dated to those used to modern minimalism—but for many, that’s part of the charm. There’s no on-site gym or spa, but most concert-goers are too busy soaking in the city’s energy to mind.
Durrants Hotel is perfect for music fans who want central London access with a peaceful, elegant place to recharge after the show.

Excellent and we shall certainly...
Liked: Traditional ambiance with intelligent human service, providing for the needs of tired guests. A number of quiet spaces to feel secluded after the short walk from Oxford Street. Excellent breakfast
Disliked: Perhaps a few more plug sockets in the room, to allow for today's many electrical essentials (to plug in both phones whilst watching TV and ironing evening shirts, etc)

There should be better maintenance...
Liked: The hotel is decorated with love. Very pretty interior. The location was perfect for us.
Disliked: There was no AC in the room. The hot water faucet didn’t work. The showerhead was basically just a strong jet of water.

Comfortable and elegant hotel on...
Liked: Very elegant hotel in traditional style, well situated close to Marylebone High Street. Lots of restaurants and boutiques in easy walking distance.The staff were very helpful and friendly. They provided a change of room late in the evening when the first room was much too warm for us (on one of the hottest days of the year).
Disliked: Nothing.

Disappointing
Liked: Breakfast were very good, as were the from of house staff.
Disliked: The fridge in our room was leaking and dirty. Large amount of cobwebs in the room. The extractor fan in the bathroom was poor and the shower did not go cold enough… it was exceptionally hot and this was needed!

Good for my purpose and...
Liked: Location, atmosphere, size (not too big), furnishings, staff
Disliked: I was in Room 105 which was a double, but in my opinion it was too small for that. There was insufficient drawer space for one, let alone 2 and the bathroom, although newly equipped, was cramped. The restaurant was excellent but expensive. I went there for dinner on one night, but otherwise I ate out. Bar is cosy and friendly and reception space is good
