About The Ritz London:
Prestigious hotel on Piccadilly and overlooking London's Green Park. The Ritz opened in 1906 and still offers all the glamour, excitement, and graceful living that are synonymous with this legendary, world famous hotel.

The Ritz London was opened in 1906 by renowned hotelier César Ritz. The Ritz owes its French chateau style architectural design and Louis XVI furnishings to a partnership between Frenchman Charles Mewès and Englighman Arthur Davis.

In 1995, The Ritz was returned to private British ownership when it was bought by Sir David Barclay and the hotel has been completely restored to beyond its former glory.
