Occupying a red brick Victorian building in Marylebone, the six storey Landmark hotel is four blocks from Regent's Park, and an adjacent Underground station provides a link to the rest of London. The 299 guestrooms are furnished with gilt painted lamps, bedside chests in lacquered wood, and soft quilted bedcovers, and offer views of the atrium or street. All rooms are equipped with Internet connections, satellite television, and minibars. Bathrooms include hair dryers and bathrobes.
A dramatic lobby with stone arches leads to the Winter Garden, a giant atrium around which the hotel is wrapped. Breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea and cocktails are served in the atrium, which offers a varied international menu and hosts live music every afternoon and evening. The health club, with Romanesque friezes accenting its 15 metre indoor pool, offers an array of massages and beauty treatments, ranging from aromatherapy facials to jet lag revivers. The Cellars Bar and Restaurant is an oak panelled dining room on the ground floor, with a strong bias towards seafood, while the wine list includes a choice of five champagnes. Sandwiched between several main roads, Marylebone has a village atmosphere, with many speciality shops and restaurants. 600 metres from the hotel is the former home of one of literature's most famous detectives Sherlock Holmes, which houses a museum that celebrates Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's sleuth. The waxworks at Madame Tussauds and the Georgian splendours of Regent's Park can both be found within 800 metres. London Heathrow Airport is 28 miles away and can be reached by car in approximately 30 minutes.
