Claridge’s, the well-known Mayfair hotel, has been recognised in Robb Report’s annual ranking of the world’s greatest luxury hotels. The establishment secured the seventh position on the list of 50 hotels. This represents a decrease of four places from its standing in the previous year’s report, as noted by Time Out London.
The luxury lifestyle guide Robb Report described Claridge’s as offering 'formal but effortless service in a building that reeks of history, buzzy restaurants and bars plus rooms with a reassuring whiff of Victoriana that subtly nods to Britain’s heyday'.
