45 Park Lane has a younger, more boutique-like feel than its parent hotel, the stately Dorchester, just steps away, but standards are just as high. Here, elegant, contemporary rooms with Art Deco touches come with yoga mats and iPads. Each is assigned a knowledgeable ‘host’ – an update of an old-school butler, crossed with a concierge. The style continues in the stunning wood panelled lobby, but the hotel also hosts contemporary art exhibitions. Dining is at Wolfgang Puck’s steak restaurant CUT.
