Flemings Mayfair first opened in 1851 and remains one of the capital's few privately owned luxury hotels, occupying thirteen interconnecting Grade II listed Georgian townhouses on Half Moon Street. With around 129 rooms and suites plus serviced apartments, an Art Deco and Georgian style, the intimate Manetta's Bar and the Michelin-starred Ormer Mayfair, it is a refined, tucked-away address. This guide covers exactly how to reach it.
01 / LOCATIONWhere exactly is Flemings Mayfair?
The hotel is at 7-12 Half Moon Street, Mayfair, W1J 7BH, on a quiet street running off Piccadilly towards Curzon Street, moments from Green Park. It sits in the Congestion Charge zone and the ULEZ, on a narrow one-way street — so for arrivals, a clean drop where the doorman can meet you is the sensible approach.
02 / THE SETTINGA privately owned Mayfair gem
Flemings blends Georgian elegance with 1930s Art Deco style across its townhouses, with intimate drawing rooms, an exclusive TASCHEN book partnership and a warm, residential feel. Dining and drinking centre on the Michelin-starred Ormer Mayfair, led by chef Sofian Msetfi, and the glamorous, jazz-age Manetta's Bar, with afternoon tea in the Drawing Room. Whichever brings you here, the point for arrival is the same: it's a hotel of quiet refinement, so the journey to its door deserves the same composure.
03 / STATIONSNearest stations and getting around
The hotel is well connected just off Piccadilly:
- Green Park (Piccadilly, Jubilee and Victoria lines, direct from Heathrow) is about a four-minute walk and is closest.
- Hyde Park Corner (Piccadilly line) is around six minutes.
- Bond Street and Piccadilly Circus are both a short walk, with buses along Piccadilly.
The links are excellent. The catch on arrival day is the familiar one: easy travelling light, far harder with luggage, after a flight, with a change and a walk down Half Moon Street at the end.
04 / AIRPORTSAirport transfer times to Flemings Mayfair
Flemings draws guests from around the world. The board below gives realistic door-to-door driving times for a pre-booked private hire car. Treat them as a planning guide; Mayfair traffic has its own ideas.
From Heathrow
London City is the closest airport, to the east. From Heathrow in the west, the Piccadilly line runs direct to Green Park nearby — convenient, but a long ride with luggage and a walk at the end. A direct Heathrow airport transfer by car removes that, with the driver meeting you in arrivals and bringing you straight to Half Moon Street.
From the other airports
London City is closest of all; Gatwick connects by the Gatwick Express to Victoria, while Luton and Stansted sit further out. From each, the rail route ends in a Tube ride and a walk; for a group, or anyone with luggage, one car and one fixed price is the gentler option.
A quiet Mayfair gem — the arrival should feel just as composed.
05 / THE EASY WAYArriving in style — train, Tube or private hire?
There's no single right answer. Coming light from elsewhere in town? The Tube to Green Park works well. A pre-booked private hire transfer tends to win when arrival matters most:
- You're arriving with luggage after a flight and would rather be met and driven to the door than change trains.
- You're travelling as a couple or group and would value a saloon, executive car, MPV or larger vehicle together.
- You want a fixed fare known before you travel — no surge, no meter ticking in Mayfair traffic.
- Your flight time is uncertain — a tracked driver simply adjusts and waits.
Why this helps at Flemings Mayfair: the hotel sits on a narrow one-way Mayfair street with no car park and the Congestion Charge in force. A local driver knows the cleanest set-down where the doorman can meet you, rather than circling the block.
06 / NEARBYWhat's around Flemings Mayfair
Flemings sits at the heart of Mayfair:
- Green Park & Buckingham Palace — the royal park and palace a short walk south.
- Piccadilly & The Ritz — Fortnum & Mason and the grand hotels a couple of minutes away.
- Bond Street & Mayfair galleries — the designer stores and art a short walk north.
- Shepherd Market — the historic village of pubs and restaurants around the corner.
