The Park Lane Hotel is a 5 Star hotel on Piccadilly, London.
The hotel was built in the 1920s in the Grand Art Deco Style by Sir Bracewell Smith. The building is a fine example with a mansard roof and Portland stone facade. The building is Grade II listed.
It has 302 bedrooms on eight floors with the front overlooking Green Park towards Buckingham Palace.
The hotel was bought by Sheraton Hotels in 1997, which was itself bought by Starwood Hotels the following year. It continues to be operated by their Sheraton brand, though the hotel has never used the Sheraton name.
The hotel is featured in the films The End of the Affair, The Winds of War and The Golden Compass.
