Maybourne Hotel Group’s growing sales office exemplifies their commitment to further solidifying Claridge’s, The Connaught and The Berkeley as the premier destinations in the United Kingdom.

The Connaught is now welcoming guests to their private townhouse suite, The Mews, arguably the most exclusive experience in the city. While over at The Berkeley, the hotel will open their second bar, The Berkeley Bar, complete with outdoor terrace, while also debuting a singular rooftop experience, La Dolce Vita, inspired by summertime in the Italian Riviera, while continuing to delight guests and visitors alike with the limited-edition Dior inspired rendition of their much-loved Prêt-á-Portea.
