As London’s luxury hospitality scene reaches new heights, the Chancery Rosewood emerges as an extraordinary addition to Mayfair’s prestigious landscape. Recently named the world’s best hotel in 2025 by Luxury Travel Intelligence (LTI), this remarkable property has outshined global competitors including &Beyond Suyian Lodge in Kenya and Aman Bangkok.
The achievement is particularly significant as part of Rosewood’s unprecedented success, with three properties making LTI’s coveted list—a first for any luxury hospitality brand.
Rosewood’s historic triple placement on LTI’s elite ranking sets a new benchmark in global luxury hospitality excellence.
The Chancery Rosewood occupies the Grade II-listed former U.S. Embassy at Grosvenor Square, masterfully redesigned by Sir David Chipperfield with interiors by Joseph Dirand. This architectural transformation blends mid-century heritage with refined modern glamour, featuring Art Deco accents alongside marble and walnut finishes. The hotel preserves the building’s historical significance while reimagining it as a contemporary luxury destination, providing convenient access to iconic sites that enrich the guest experience.
What truly sets the Chancery apart is its all-suite residential concept. The property features 139-144 guestrooms, with the smallest measuring 53-57 square metres—comparable to a one-bedroom London flat.
Junior Suites begin at 570 square feet, an exceptional offering in London’s luxury market. Each accommodation resembles a chic Mayfair apartment rather than a traditional hotel room.
Culinary excellence defines the Chancery with eight world-class restaurants and bars, including Europe’s first Carbone location and the upcoming Tobi Masa Omakase, marking the acclaimed chef’s European debut.
The Jacqueline tea venue offers over 100 distinctive teas sourced globally, while GSQ operates as a versatile day-to-night destination.
The property’s Asaya Spa represents a wellness sanctuary rarely found in Mayfair, featuring a 25-metre pool, sauna, steam room, and cutting-edge fitness equipment. The spa offers holistic therapies through the Taktouk Clinic, with deep tissue massages ranking among London’s finest spa experiences. The spa’s exceptional design by Yabu Pushelberg creates an atmosphere of refined tranquility amidst the city’s bustle.
The hotel is also pioneering environmental responsibility, on track to become the first U.K. hotel achieving BREEAM Outstanding certification. This sustainable approach demonstrates that ultra-luxury hospitality can successfully integrate ecological consciousness—perhaps the most compelling reason why the Chancery Rosewood stands as 2025’s unrivaled luxury hotel.
