The Connaught

Luxury Meets Live Music in the Heart of Mayfair

Modern elegance meets time-honored British charm at The Connaught, a luxury hotel nestled in London’s prestigious Mayfair district. With Michelin-starred dining, award-winning bars, and impeccable service, this iconic hotel offers a refined retreat just a short ride from many of London’s most famous concert venues. Whether you're catching a headline act or a secret gig, The Connaught provides a stylish and serene base for your music-filled escape.

Why Concert-goers love it

Located in central London, The Connaught is within easy reach of major live music spots via taxi or the nearby Underground. After a late night out, you’ll appreciate the 24-hour concierge service and quiet, soundproofed rooms that let you sleep in undisturbed luxury. With a generous check-out time of 12:00, there’s no rush the morning after the show, and the hotel’s staff go above and beyond to tailor your stay — including help with transport to and from gigs.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends looking to combine a show with fine dining and drinks
• Solo travelers treating themselves to a once-in-a-lifetime concert
• Couples planning a romantic music-filled weekend
• Fans wanting a quieter post-concert recovery space with spa access
• Luxury-minded concert goers (this one’s not for tight budgets)

Food and Drink Options

The Connaught is a culinary destination in its own right. Enjoy a meal at the Michelin-starred Hélène Darroze restaurant, offering exquisite French-inspired cuisine. For late-night cravings, the hotel’s bars serve snacks and small plates well into the evening, and round-the-clock room service has you covered after a show. Breakfast is available late — perfect for sleeping in after a gig.

Nightlife Options

Unwind with a drink in one of the hotel’s three stylish bars: the award-winning Connaught Bar, the elegant Coburg Bar, or the art-filled Red Room. Each offers a distinct vibe and expertly crafted cocktails. If you’re heading out, you’re a short walk or ride to some of London’s best nightclubs, lounges, and live music venues.

What People Say

Guests rave about the exceptional service, calling the staff “impeccable” and “attentive without being intrusive.” The hotel’s location in Mayfair is frequently praised, with many noting how easy it is to explore the city or catch a cab to a concert. The bars also receive glowing reviews for their atmosphere and mixology.

Areas for Improvement

This level of luxury comes with a price tag — budget-conscious travelers might find it a stretch. Also, while the hotel is close to transport, it isn’t directly next to any major concert venue, so getting to the gig will usually involve a short ride.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers who want a little indulgence with their music experience, The Connaught offers luxurious comfort, world-class food and drink, and a calm oasis in the heart of London.
