Marylebone has long been of the most fashionable and chic streets in the whole capital. It has a sophisticated air that feels like something special, and is packed with great places to eat, drink and shop.
It’s that latter area we’re going to focus on today, giving you a guide to the best shopping in Marylebone.
La Portegna
A Spanish travel boutique – as you may have guessed from the name – La Portegna deals in robust, stylish clothing for those who like to travel.
The store’s inspiration is a unique one. The founder was beguiled by a lion rug that was given to his grandparents by none other than Earnest Hemmingway. Hemmingway was a huge fan of hunting, travelling and all things manly, and so the store was founded on an inspiration of functional, classical wear.
The clothes on offer – for men and women – are great quality, all-natural and handcrafted. Even better, it’s less than 10-minutes from your Montcalm Marble Arch Hotel.
New Cavendish Jewellers
One of the oldest retailers in Marylebone of any kind, New Cavendish Jewellers deals in exclusive pieces crafted from the finest precious metals.
It’s a family run business and one that provides great advice and a tailored approach to jewellery making. They’re also an authorised retailer for brands like Cartier. The shop itself is a beautiful location, and you can always just stare longingly at the amazing pieces on display if you don’t feel like indulging. Close to our boutique hotels London, UK, you don’t have far to travel to visit one of the best jewellers in London.
Selfridges
What visit to Marylebone would be complete without a trip to Selfridges? As they say, “It’s shopping, but not as you know it”.
Selfridges truly is a wonderful place to indulge in some retail therapy and it helps that the store is still housed in its original, beautiful Victorian location.
It’s the perfect place to find luxury brands, covering everything you could ever need – all under one roof. There’s also great dining available right on-site, and it’s probably one of the best shopping experiences London has to offer. There’s a reason Selfridge’s is world-famous. It’s within reaching distance of your Montcalm Hotel Marble Arch, so you can shop until you drop.
Alfie’s Antique Market
Whatever you’re looking for, chances are that Alfie’s Antique Market has it. It’s one of the largest indoor antique spaces in the whole of London, and it is here than many interior designers come to source their best pieces.
Alfie’s Antique Market covers a huge 35,000 square feet, spread across multiple floors. Even better, there’s a rooftop restaurant so you can soothe those aching feet after poring over everything this amazing place has to offer. It’s only a short hop from our boutique hotels London UK and the ideal place to find some hidden gems.
If that’s not enough antiques for you, simply cross the road to Church Street, which is home to a raft of antique dealers and shops, making this area perfect for anyone seeking a memento of London.
