The Langham Hotel is a 5 Star hotel located in Regent Street in London, one of the largest and best know traditional style grand hotels in London.

It was opened by the Prince of Wales in 1865, and was then the largest and most modern hotels in the city, and soon became a favoured spot with many high profile political figures and royalty, such as Winston Churchill, Charles de Gaulle and Princess Diana. Other notable celebrity guests included Oscar Wilde, Noel Coward, Charlie Sheen, Wallis Simpson and Don Bradman.

The hotel provided the setting in many of Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Homes stories, and featured in the James Bond film GoldenEye.

During World War II, the hotel was used in part by the Army, but was damaged by bombs and forced to close. After the war, it was used by the BBC as ancillary accommodation, and eventually purchased outright in 1965. One notorious BBC employee who stayed at the Langham is Guy Burgess, who would later become known as one of the 'Cambridge five', a spying ring who fed official secrets to the Soviets during the Cold War.

Under new owners the hotel has recently undergone an 80 million Pound restoration and now offers 380 luxurious bedrooms and suites, 15 function rooms, and the dazzling Palm Court.

You will be truly delighted by this charming Victorian London hotel and its exceptionally rich heritage and celebrated history which sets it apart form other everyday London hotel in one of the city's premier locations.
