Escape to Hyatt Regency Churchill For A Chic Retreat Filled With British History

Looking for the best of both worlds? Feel at home in London, minutes away from its most famous landmarks

It’s steps away from Selfridges and the luxurious lure of Bond Street, yet nestled on leafy Portman Square – guests have access to the private garden for impromptu picnics, playground visits and al fresco tennis games – so the biggest draw of the Hyatt Regency Churchill Hotel in London has got to be its location, in Marylebone Village.

Aside from its situation, which appeals to both tourists looking to tick off the sights and regulars returning to favourite haunts like Wigmore Hall, is a laid-back ambiance that is incredibly welcoming of families (expect a mini hamper of gifts for little ones that includes baby-friendly toiletries, robe plus a plush Jock the cat and storybook set in the property), an added draw for Middle East clientele. Plus there’s the bonus of a substantial halal menu at ground-floor eatery Montagu Kitchen and Lounge that passes every gourmet taste test.

The 440-room hotel was originally fashioned as a homage to statesman Winston Churchill, and there is still subtle memorabilia in the form of family photographs, framed letters and impressive busts – make sure you step into the library – and little touches that still allude to the link. Our top tip? Book a room that gives you access to the Regency Club Lounges; the complimentary refreshments and comfortable seating areas are ideal after a day exploring the city.
