Location: They're in the heart of the West End, between the airport and the City. Well-placed for leisure and business they're just 5 underground stops to the City and on a direct line to Heathrow. Victoria Station, for Gatwick, is 1 stop away.
Accomodation: Their 111 rooms and 12 suites are not clones of each other. They don't subscribe to the bland uniformity of hotel-chain bedrooms. Some veer towards the traditional, others are more contemporary. A blend of English elegance with 21st century technology.
The well-appointed marble bathrooms have high-pressure showers and luxurious bathrobes. Many rooms have a stunning view over Piccadilly towards the tree-tops of Green Park, Westminster and beyond, creating a feeling of tranquillity in the heart of London.

Dining: Award-winning chef David Marshall selects the freshest, finest ingredients. His menu includes organic produce from approved and carefully selected sources in France, Italy, Scotland and England. These ingredients include handmade Italian mozzarella, Aberdeen Angus grass-fed beef, asparagus, English lamb and New Forest wild mushrooms.
Like the dishes, the décor at Bullochs has a Mediterranean influence ? with a touch of celebrity stardust. The floor is Jerusalem stone with antique mosaics and each chair features the name of a former celebrity occupant.
Leisure: Take the steps down from the lobby and you'll enter a clean crisp sanctuary of glass and chrome. The spa, open exclusively to Athenaeum guests, is a blissful antidote to the stresses and strains of Central London. You can take a warm relaxing dip in the jacuzzi, unwind in the sauna and steam room or workout in the gym. A personal trainer can be booked to give one-to-one training, using advanced Technogym equipment. All of these facilities are available 24 hours.
Perhaps golf is your preferred relaxation? If so, ask the Concierge about a 40 minute car or train transfer to The Grove, their sister hotel. The Grove's championship course, designed by Kyle Phillips, is available to Athenaeum guests. You can hire clubs from the club house.
Meeting Facilities: 'First', our floor for business, special occasions and private dining, is functional, flexible and fashionable.
