Where is The Landmark London and how central is it?

It stands at 222 Marylebone Road, directly opposite Marylebone station in the West End's quieter north-west corner. Baker Street underground is a four-minute walk, Regent's Park is ten minutes on foot, Oxford Street around fifteen, and Paddington (for the Heathrow Express) is one stop away. Heathrow is typically 45–60 minutes by car.

What is the Winter Garden atrium?

The hotel is built around an eight-storey glass-roofed atrium filled with 40-foot palm trees — the single most photographed space in the hotel and the setting for the Winter Garden restaurant, breakfast and afternoon tea. Many rooms open onto galleried corridors overlooking it, which is why atrium-facing rooms are quieter than road-facing ones.

How much does a night at The Landmark London cost in 2026?

Indicatively, Superior rooms usually sit around £380–£550 per night, Deluxe and Executive rooms roughly £480–£700, Marylebone Studio Suites from about £750, larger suites from £1,100, and the Presidential and Landmark suites well above that. Rates rise steeply for major London events and drop in January, February and August. VAT is added and breakfast is often a separate supplement — we quote live rates for your exact dates.

Is there a spa and pool, and is it included?

Yes. The Spa at The Landmark London has a 15-metre chlorine-free indoor pool, sauna, steam room and a gym, all included for hotel guests. Treatments are charged separately and weekend slots go early, so book them at the same time as the room.

Is it a good hotel for families?

It is one of the easier five-stars in London for families: Executive Family rooms and two-bedroom suites exist, cots and extra beds are straightforward, the pool is a genuine advantage on wet days, and Madame Tussauds, Regent's Park and London Zoo are all within a short walk or drive.

What event and meeting space does it have?

Fourteen event spaces, headlined by the Grand Ballroom (up to around 500 guests) and the panelled Empire Room, plus a set of smaller Georgian-styled rooms for boardroom meetings and private dining. It is a long-standing London wedding and charity-gala venue, and the atrium works well for drinks receptions.

How does Britatlas book The Landmark London?

We book directly with the hotel as a destination management partner: negotiated and unpublished rates where available, room-category upgrade requests subject to availability, Heathrow chauffeur transfers, private guiding, restaurant reservations and group or event space held under one contract and one invoice. Send your dates and we will come back with live options.

The Landmark London Guide 2026 | Rooms, Winter Garden & Rates

The Landmark London is one of the last of the great Victorian railway hotels, opened in 1899 as the Great Central Hotel beside Marylebone station and restored to five-star standard a century later. What sets it apart from every other London five-star is architectural: the whole building is arranged around a glass-roofed atrium eight storeys high, planted with 40-foot palms, with galleried bedroom corridors looking down into it. Nothing else in the city feels quite like it.

It is also a different kind of luxury from Mayfair. Rooms are large by London standards, the mood is calm rather than fashionable, there is a real pool, and the price per square metre is markedly better than Knightsbridge or Park Lane. For families, longer stays and events, that combination is often the deciding factor.

Location: 222 Marylebone Road

The hotel sits directly opposite Marylebone station, on the northern edge of Marylebone village. It is a quieter address than Oxford Street or Mayfair but still comfortably central, and unusually well connected for airport arrivals.

Marylebone station: directly across the road.
Baker Street underground: 4-minute walk (5 lines).
Marylebone High Street shops and restaurants: 8–10 minutes on foot.
Regent's Park: 10 minutes; Madame Tussauds 5 minutes.
Oxford Street and Selfridges: 15 minutes on foot.
Heathrow: 45–60 minutes by car, or Heathrow Express to Paddington then a 5-minute transfer.
St Pancras International (Eurostar): 15–20 minutes by car.

Rooms and suites

Deluxe room at The Landmark London with a king bed, marble bathroom entrance and traditional English decor

There are around 300 rooms and suites. Standard categories start at roughly 40 sqm — considerably larger than most London five-stars — and the design is classic English: soft palettes, upholstered headboards, marble bathrooms with separate bath and shower in most categories.

Superior Room — the entry category, around 40 sqm, usually facing Marylebone Road or an internal aspect.
Deluxe Room — larger, better light, often with a seating area; the best value-for-comfort category.
Executive Room — higher floors, more space and a desk; the sensible choice for business stays.
Executive Family Room — sleeps two adults and two children, with a sofa bed; ask for connecting configurations early.
Marylebone Studio Suite — open-plan suite with a defined lounge area; good for stays of four nights or more.
Atrium and Great Central Suites — separate living room, several with balconies or windows onto the atrium itself.
Landmark and Presidential Suites — the top of the house: multi-room layouts, dining space, dressing rooms and the option of adjoining bedrooms for a family or security detail.

Living area of the Landmark Suite at The Landmark London with sofas, fireplace and tall windows

Two practical points worth knowing before you book. First, aspect matters more here than category: Marylebone Road is a busy artery, so atrium-facing or courtyard rooms are noticeably quieter, and that has to be requested rather than assumed. Second, the galleried atrium corridors are beautiful but open, so if you are a very light sleeper, ask for a room away from the atrium's lower levels where evening dining carries.

Dining: the Winter Garden and Great Central Bar

Winter Garden restaurant tables set beneath the palm trees and glass roof of The Landmark London atrium

The Winter Garden restaurant sits on the atrium floor beneath the glass roof and palms, and it is the reason many Londoners come here without staying. Breakfast is generous and served under natural light; afternoon tea is one of the better-value grand-hotel teas in the city and needs booking a week or two ahead for weekends; dinner is modern European with live piano.

The Great Central Bar at The Landmark London with panelled walls, leather seating and a long bar

The Great Central Bar handles cocktails, wine and a lighter all-day menu in a clubbier, panelled setting, and the Mirror Bar is the quieter pre-dinner option. In-room dining runs 24 hours. Outside the hotel, Marylebone High Street and Chiltern Street put a dozen good restaurants within a ten-minute walk — we book those for guests as part of the stay.

The spa, pool and gym

The 15-metre indoor pool at the spa of The Landmark London

The Spa at The Landmark London occupies the lower ground floor: a 15-metre chlorine-free pool, sauna, steam room, relaxation area and a 24-hour gym, all free to guests. That genuine pool is unusual for a central London hotel of this era and a real advantage with children or on a long trip. Treatments — massage, facials, couples' rooms — are charged separately, and weekend slots should be reserved before arrival.

Meetings, weddings and events

The panelled Empire Room event space at The Landmark London set with chandeliers

There are fourteen event spaces. The Grand Ballroom is the headline room, taking roughly 500 for a reception or around 380 for a seated dinner-dance, with its own entrance and foyer. The Empire Room is the handsome panelled alternative for 150–200 guests, and a set of smaller Georgian rooms — Drawing Room, Tower Suites, boardrooms — cover meetings of 10 to 60 people and private dining.

Grand Ballroom: up to ~500 reception, ~380 seated with dancing.
Empire Room: ~150–200 for dinners and conferences.
Smaller suites and boardrooms: 10–60 delegates.
Atrium: drinks receptions and brand activations.
Bedrooms on site for delegates, which removes the shuttle problem most London conference venues create.

For agencies and corporate buyers, this is one of the more workable London venues: single-site conference plus accommodation, a step-free ballroom entrance, and a banqueting team used to multi-day programmes and charity galas.

Indicative 2026 rates

London hotel pricing is fully dynamic, so treat the figures below as planning bands rather than quotes. They exclude VAT and, in most rate types, breakfast.

Superior Room: approximately £380–£550 per night.
Deluxe Room: approximately £450–£620.
Executive Room: approximately £520–£700.
Executive Family Room: approximately £600–£820.
Marylebone Studio Suite: from approximately £750.
Atrium / Great Central Suite: from approximately £1,100.
Landmark and Presidential Suites: on request, typically £2,500+.

The cheapest months are January, February and late August. The most expensive periods are September and October conference season, the first three weeks of December, and any week containing a major event at Wembley, Twickenham or the ExCeL. Sunday nights are consistently softer than midweek.

How to book well

Book the aspect, not just the category. A Deluxe room away from Marylebone Road beats an Executive room above the traffic.
Check what breakfast costs before you commit. Room-only plus Winter Garden breakfast can be more than an included-breakfast rate for two people.
Reserve afternoon tea and spa treatments with the room. Both sell out at weekends well before arrival.
For groups of ten rooms or more, contract rather than book. Group terms, allocation and release dates are far better value than ten individual reservations.
Arrange the airport transfer in advance. A pre-booked chauffeur with flight monitoring costs little more than a metered ride from Heathrow and removes the arrivals-hall queue entirely.

Who it suits — and who it doesn't

Choose The Landmark if you want space, calm, a pool and a genuinely memorable public space at a rate that undercuts Mayfair; if you are travelling with children; if you are running a conference, wedding or gala and want delegates sleeping on site; or if you arrive by Eurostar or Heathrow Express and value the short transfer.

Look elsewhere if your priority is walking out of the door into Bond Street or Berkeley Square, or if you want the fashion-led scene of a Mayfair or Soho hotel. For those, we would point you at The Connaught, Claridge's or the Bulgari instead — and we book all of them.
