About Lees Place
Part of the historic Grosvenor Estate in Mayfair, W1, Lees Place sits a short walk from Bond Street Underground, the boutiques of New Bond Street, and the open lawns of Hyde Park. The street itself is a converted mews: narrow, characterful, largely traffic-free, and a world away from the noise of Oxford Street despite being just minutes on foot.
Lees Place sits squarely within the Grosvenor Estate — one of the great private estates that shaped the physical and social character of Mayfair over three centuries. Red brick neo-Georgian facades, mews-scale proportions, and individually designed properties give the street a texture you simply don't find in purpose-built apartment blocks.
There's something genuinely different about staying in a mews. The scale is human. The atmosphere is residential. You're not walking through a hotel lobby or sharing a lift with twenty other guests — you're stepping out onto a quiet cobbled lane, a few minutes from some of the most famous streets in the world.

Amenities & Facilities
Location
The location is simply exceptional. Lees Place sits in the northern part of Mayfair, placing it within easy reach of almost everything central London has to offer.
Bond Street Underground (Central and Jubilee lines) is a few minutes' walk — arguably the most useful station in this part of London, given the Jubilee line's direct connections to Canary Wharf, Waterloo, and London Bridge. Marble Arch (Central line) is also a short walk, adding further flexibility. From either station, the entire Underground network opens up.
New Bond Street and Old Bond Street are on your doorstep — Chanel, Cartier, Tiffany and the full roster of international luxury houses are a five-minute walk. Oxford Street and Selfridges are equally accessible on foot. For something a little less corporate, Regent Street and Carnaby Street are also within easy walking distance.
Mayfair has one of the highest concentrations of high-quality restaurants in London. Within a short walk of Lees Place you'll find dining across every style and price point — from Sketch on Conduit Street and Michelin-starred Gymkhana on Albemarle Street to the iconic seafood at Scott's on Mount Street, the all-day setting of Brasserie of Light at Selfridges, the striking interior of Sexy Fish at Berkeley Square, the intimate Kitty Fisher's in Shepherd Market, the casual Grays Antique Market Café, and the coffee shops around South Molton Street. For late evenings, Annabel's on Berkeley Square and the bar at Claridge's on Brook Street are within easy walking distance.
The contrast — the hush of the mews against the energy of Bond Street and Oxford Street — is one of the things guests consistently mention.
Hyde Park is a short walk west — close enough for a morning run or an afternoon cycle without needing to drive or take the Tube. Grosvenor Square, one of London's grandest garden squares, is nearby and makes for a pleasant ten-minute sit-down after a day's walking.
The Royal Academy of Arts on Piccadilly is within walking distance. Handel & Hendrix in London — the museum occupying the homes of both composers on Brook Street — is practically around the corner from Lees Place. The Wallace Collection on Manchester Square, one of London's finest smaller museums and entirely free to enter, is also a short walk north. Soho, with its theatres, cinemas, and live music venues, is accessible on foot through Mayfair.
Why Choose Lees Place
A comparable hotel room in Mayfair at the £280–£330 per night price point will typically give you around 25–35 square metres of space. A one-bedroom serviced apartment at Lees Place offers considerably more — with a separate living area, a kitchen, and in many cases a cloakroom in addition to the main bathroom. The mews setting adds another layer of privacy: no busy hotel corridor, no lobby of strangers coming and going.
London restaurant prices — even at mid-range venues — can easily add £60–£100 per day for two people. A fully equipped kitchen eliminates that cost for at least some meals. The washer/dryer removes the need for expensive dry-cleaning. And the rate per night doesn't typically spike the way hotel rates do during busy periods.
Self check-in means you're not beholden to a front desk window. Air conditioning, a proper kitchen, and your own music system mean the apartment works on your schedule, not a hotel's. For guests who simply want to live normally in London for a week — grocery shopping, cooking, watching television — a serviced apartment makes that possible in a way no hotel can.
There's also something less quantifiable — the experience of actually living in a Mayfair mews, even temporarily. Walking out onto a quiet residential lane in the morning, knowing Bond Street is five minutes away. It's not something a hotel lobby, however grand, can replicate.
A Mayfair address at a price point that competes favourably with five-star hotels — with significantly more space and the freedom to cook, relax, and come and go without the formality of hotel life.
Proper workspace, reliable high-speed Wi-Fi, a kitchen for early breakfasts or late working dinners, VAT invoices as standard, and weekly/monthly rate structures on request for longer assignments.
Two-bedroom and connecting apartment options mean children get their own sleeping space and adults get a living room that isn't also someone's bedroom. Hyde Park is a short walk for playgrounds and open space.
The kitchen eliminates eating out for every meal, the washer/dryer means you're not living out of a suitcase, and the weekly maid service keeps things clean without the disruption of daily housekeeping.
Guest Voices
Guest feedback is consistently positive across booking platforms, most often citing the location, the quality of the apartments, and the responsiveness of the management team.
We stayed in the Penthouse for five nights and it was simply outstanding. Bond Street is right there, Hyde Park is a ten-minute walk, and the apartment itself was immaculate. We'll be back.
Leisure guest, August
Perfect for our corporate visit. The Wi-Fi was fast and reliable, the kitchen meant we could work through dinner without going out, and the VAT invoice was sorted without any fuss.
Business traveller, October
Lovely apartment in a really quiet mews. The check-in was seamless and the weekly clean was a nice touch. Parking is genuinely difficult if you're driving, but the Tube access is excellent.
Family group, June
We used the connecting apartment option for a group of six and it worked beautifully. The Mayfair location is unbeatable for a London stay.
