London, England
Why we love Henry's Townhouse
Henry’s Townhouse is simply what London has been waiting for. Sitting somewhere between a private residence and a boutique hotel, Henry’s is a luxurious lesson in Georgian glamour and bespoke design.
Henry’s is a labour of love. A classic five-storey Townhouse on Upper Berkeley St, Marylebone, it was once the home of Jane Austen’s favourite brother, Henry. With six elegant, truly luxurious bedrooms, there is nowhere more comfortable, yet more characterful in London. The common areas are equally superb, including a bespoke Pantry Kitchen with long sharing table for breakfast & private dining. We also love the carriage-like cocktail ‘snug’, rooftop terrace for evening aperitifs and Jane’s Reading Room – perfect for afternoon tea or simply relaxing after a busy day in London.
Henry’s is perfect for the most discerning of guests who are looking for something more than just a hotel stay in terms of flexibility, privacy or style, but without compromising on service, location or exclusivity.
