Hotel Location - Piccadilly Circus top of page
Just over one hundred years ago, the designer store windows you now pass in Piccadilly displayed prostitutes advertising the brothels inside. Now two of the most British of British institutions are there: the Ritz, and Fortnum and Masons. 'Theatre land' to the east has spread into Piccadilly over time, and with Green Park to the south the area has plenty to offer. Oxford Street is a few minutes to the north, and finding what you want to buy within a few minutes' walk of a Piccadilly hotel is almost guaranteed.
