The Cavendish Hotel

The Cavendish Hotel is a modern 230-room 4-star luxury hotel in the St James's district of the City of Westminster borough of London, United Kingdom. It is currently known as "The Cavendish London" and is owned by CapitaLand. It is located at the corner of Jermyn Street (main entrance) and Duke Street, St James's (side entrance). Jermyn Street is an established retail and urban leisure street which has bespoke gentlemen's clothing stores, shoe/bootmakers, and barber shops. The hotel gained prominence during the 1902–1952 management of the self-made hotelier and socialite Rosa Lewis, who was also known as the "Queen of Cooks" and "The Duchess of Jermyn Street"; damaged in the London Blitz, it was torn down in 1962. The present edition of the hotel was built on the site in 1966.
