The Prince Akatoki London

The Prince Akatoki London sits on Great Cumberland Place, tucked away from the frantic pace of the nearby shopping thoroughfares. The hotel is a five-minute walk from Marble Arch and within ten minutes of both Oxford Street and Selfridges.

The hotel trades on a deliberate stillness that its neighbours lack. While Oxford Street is defined by its constant, overwhelming churn, this property acts as a necessary airlock. You choose it for the distance it puts between you and the local crowds; it is far more effective at providing a quiet base than the larger, more exposed hotels flanking the main retail grid. If the goal is a stay that ignores the intensity of the district’s commercial core, the location is a practical success.
