This Christmas, step into the heart of Mayfair and discover two sides of London’s most magical season. Two hotels. One legendary lineage. Claridge’s is the glittering icon where Christmas shines with couture brilliance. The Connaught is the quiet soul of Mayfair, where warmth glows from within. Together, they form The Maybourne legend.

Claridge’s

Claridge’s

The Art of a Christmas Legend

Claridge’s has long been London’s most photographed Christmas address. Each year, its celebrated tree becomes the city’s conversation piece, reimagined through the lens of the world’s most coveted designers. This season, Burberry takes the stage in a celebration of British creativity: a traditional 16ft masterpiece, adorned with 600 bows crafted from surplus Burberry fabrics, hanging bells, and chess-piece decorations. Step inside and experience the magic for yourself.

Where Everything Sparkles

    Dante at Claridge’s

    This festive season, New York’s award-winning restaurant and aperitivo cocktail bar Dante comes to Claridge’s Restaurant, bringing the vibrant spirit of downtown Manhattan to the heart of Mayfair. Dante will serve its signature cocktails and nostalgic New York-inspired menu until 1 January 2026.

The Connaught

TheConnaught

A Fireside Fairytale

If Claridge’s is Christmas in full glittering grandeur, The Connaught is Christmas by the fire, quietly resplendent, deeply personal, and warmly traditional. Hidden within Mount Street’s village heart, The Connaught glows with understated sophistication, where the scent of fir trees and crackling hearths mingles with the hum of laughter and carols.
