Elegance & private exclusivity
Voted the number 1 hotel in the UK by TripAdvisor, and with a prestigious Forbes Five Star Rating, Hotel 41 is an exquisite hidden gem.
Among the World's Most Luxurious Hotels
41 is one of the most distinguished and admired hotels in London, overlooking the Royal Mews and the grounds of Buckingham Palace. A discrete and intimate hideaway, 41 has the relaxed feel of an exclusive private members club.
Simply no other hotels in London have such close proximity to Buckingham Palace. Together with our sister hotel, The Rubens, just next door we are directly opposite His Majesty The King’s illustrious residence. In addition to our royal connections, our location is uniquely vibrant: guests can step outside into the middle of bustling Victoria, while famous landmarks such as Big Ben, Trafalgar Square and St James’s Park are a short stroll away.
We are proud to be verified as one of the World's Most Luxurious Hotels by Forbes Travel Guide.

The power of passion
"Hotel 41 was the original Grand Ballroom of The Rubens Hotel, popular with debutantes and others associated with Buckingham Palace. I have been the General Manager here for nearly 20 years and, as a team, we are so proud to hold the prestigious Forbes Five-Star rating. We have also been recognised on Tripadvisor as the number one hotel in the UK for more than a decade.
A chic, monochrome design runs throughout the hotel, complemented by mahogany-lined walls and smart leather furniture. Our residents-only Executive Lounge is the beating heart of Hotel 41, and we invite guests to relax here in an oasis of calm. Our charming and thoughtful staff work to your timetable and are always on hand to assist you.
Indulge throughout the day with delicious complimentary snacks and our unique 'Plunder the Pantry' concept in the evening. Try our honesty bar or simply allow our wonderful team to prepare your favourite drinks, served with the generous hospitality for which we are renowned.
41 is a very special hotel and one that I feel honoured to be at the helm of. We look forward to welcoming you to our hidden sanctuary overlooking the Royal Mews of Buckingham Palace very soon."
