Step through the flower-adorned entrance of this enchanting Georgian townhouse and discover why discerning travelers consider The Zetter Townhouse Marylebone one of London's most captivating boutique hotels. This isn't just accommodation—it's your gateway to experiencing Marylebone like a sophisticated local.

Inspired by the fictional "Wicked Uncle Seymour" and his European Grand Tour collections, this 24-room Georgian gem feels like stepping into the private residence of an eccentric but refined English gentleman. The interiors draw inspiration from Sir John Soane's Museum, creating an anti-minimalist wonderland where every surface tells a story through architectural models, vintage crockery, paintings, and curios collected from around the world. The Georgian era (roughly 1714-1837) décor will allow you to immerse yourself in what your favorite PBS Masterpiece drama heroines from Sanditon or Sense and Sensibility would've lived in.
