Imagine a London getaway brimming with charm and personality. The Zetter Townhouse Marylebone, nestled on a Georgian terrace behind Oxford Street, promises an experience like no other. It’s a haven for those who adore shopping, exploring landmarks, and immersing themselves in the heart of London.
A Home Away From Home
Forget traditional hotels and embrace the warmth of a private home. The Zetter Townhouse Marylebone, described as a haven for “fun-loving London devotees” by Condé Nast Traveller, offers an unparalleled level of independence and charm. The entrance, a symphony of tiled walkways, wrought iron railings, and a dramatic glass lantern, sets the stage for a truly unique experience. Every season, the entrance bursts into life with vibrant floral displays and theatrical decorations, adding to its eclectic appeal.
A Cocktail Bar with a Soul
Seymour’s Parlour, the lively cocktail bar within the townhouse, is a feast for the senses. It’s a hub for exhilarating “take over” events featuring renowned liquor and mixology brands from around the world. On our visit, Drink Kong, a Roman cocktail bar, brought a taste of Italy to the townhouse, with delectable drinks and small plates. It’s a testament to the eccentricity and international spirit that permeates the Zetter Townhouse.
Interiors that Captivate the Soul
The Zetter Townhouse’s design, a collaboration with the celebrated Russell Sage studio, is a masterpiece of edgy and thought-provoking artistry. From the original stone staircase to Seymour’s Parlour adorned with Sir John Soane-inspired casts and sepia-toned photographs, every corner evokes a captivating “museum feel”. The meticulously curated interiors, a blend of antique treasures and modern conveniences, create a harmonious symphony of history and luxury.
Suites Designed for Royalty
Each of the 24 rooms within the townhouse is a sanctuary of opulent comfort. For the ultimate indulgence, choose Lear’s Loft, the intriguing rooftop suite with its private alfresco bathtub. If you crave a touch of old-world charm at a more affordable price, the quaint deluxe doubles offer a cozy escape. We stayed in a junior suite, oozing grandeur and elegance, featuring two expansive windows, a king-sized bed, and an antique-furnished seating area. Picture yourself surrounded by draped curtains, a crackling fireplace, and a vintage gramophone.
A Touch of Magic
The Zetter Townhouse embraces the perfect blend of old-world charm and modern convenience. Every room boasts an under-bed TV, a Roberts radio connected to surround-sound speakers, air-conditioning, and a Dualit kettle. It’s no wonder the Zetter Group won a prestigious “best in tech” award at The Hotel Cateys 2022.
Indulge in the Details
The bathrooms, while compact, are thoughtfully equipped with everything you could desire. From a spacious sink and bathtub to a revitalizing rainforest shower, fluffy bathrobes, and floral-scented toiletries, every detail is considered.
