Hotel Cafe Royal

A distinguished London address like no other. Here, history, culture, business and scene are just a few steps away. Perched on the cliffs of some of London’s most iconic locations, Hotel Cafe Royal has long been the standard for those who make a difference. A vibrant downtown destination, with a rich and compelling history. In an effort to preserve the historic, grand public spaces from the 1860s and 1920s – for which the Cafe Royal is famous – these listed rooms ( II ) have been carefully restored with the utmost attention to detail and respect. In 1863, a French wine merchant named Daniel Nicholas Thevenon and his wife Celestine traveled to England to escape the clutches of Parisian creditors. Thus began a story that evolved from bankruptcy and culminated in the creation of the Cafe Royal, a London legend.
