More Than a Hotel — A Way of Life

UK Hotel Vista was founded in 1924 by the Whitmore family, who envisioned a hotel that transcended mere accommodation to become a living institution of British hospitality. Occupying a masterfully restored Victorian townhouse on Berkeley Square, Vista has been the chosen home of diplomats, artists, royalty and discerning travellers for over a century.

Today, under the stewardship of General Manager Catherine Ashworth, Vista continues to honour its founding principles while embracing the finest contemporary standards of luxury. Our 142 rooms and suites have been individually designed by award-winning interior practice Forrest & Reid, each an expression of confident, timeless elegance.

From the moment you step through our doors, you become part of a story that stretches back one hundred years — a story of passion, craftsmanship and an unshakeable belief that true luxury lies in the details.
