The hotel's legacy is unmatched, having hosted everyone from Queen Victoria to Kate Moss over its nearly 170-year history, yet its modern-day allure and unwavering commitment to excellence keep it firmly at the top of the list of London's best. Rooms and suites have been designed by names like Diane von Furstenberg and David Linley, meaning each space feels carefully curated and entirely unique, though the suites certainly steal the scene with terraces, fireplaces, and even a baby grand piano in one. A location in the heart of London's glittering Mayfair neighborhood means you're steps away from upscale shopping, fine dining, and world-class art galleries. For a quintessentially British experience, don't miss afternoon tea in The Foyer & Reading Room, where you can keep it traditional with the best blends or make it a celebratory occasion with champagne. | | | | |  | | The Maybourne Beverly Hills | | Beverly Hills, California | | Steps from Rodeo Drive in the heart of Beverly Hills, this five-star hotel from English hospitality icon Maybourne brings European elegance to America's most famous zip code.

Rooms are done in soft pastels, creating an elevated calm, with curated art and custom furnishings adding an artsy touch.

Upstairs, you'll find a sunny rooftop pool deck and the LA outpost of beloved NYC cocktail bar Dante. The chic all-day spot serves cocktails and light bites in a breezy indoor-outdoor setting, with poolside service so you can summon a salad or a spritz directly to your sun lounger. In the evenings, sip champagne at the moody Maybourne Bar or sample rare pours at The Whisky Bar, home to North America's largest Macallan collection. | | | | |  | | Balboa Bay Resort | | Newport Beach, CA | | Newport Beach is known for its yacht culture, luxury shopping, fantastic dining, and stunning seaside location.
