The Mandrake is a multi-award-winning, luxury lifestyle property in the heart of Londons Fitzrovia. Every aspect of The Mandrake has been thoughtfully curated and designed to offer guests a unique, immersive and truly unforgettable experience.

Whilst our restaurant, YOPO, led by Executive Chef George Scott-Toft, is a South American inspired feast of culture and cuisine.

Barbara, Jul 2025
Pros (+) The quirkiness of the decor and the rooms were lovely.
Cons (-) For the level of hotel, we had to ask for another bathrobe (as a staying couple they only supplied one on arrival!? ) also had to ask for them to replenish the coffee and water. This all should have been automatic. Breakfast on day one was nice, in the restaurant. However breakfast on the following two occasions was up stairs in the garden room. Cold iron seats to sit on, no cushions, service was ...

Pros (+) A very unique hotel, amazingly decorated and an awesome hidden baclony if you choose the terrace option. Friendly and helpful staff.
Cons (-) For the price, the room was quite small. However, it was well laid out and with the bonus of a baclony, I am not complaining too much :)

Pros (+) Excellent location and great art all around the hotel. Good vibe at the hotel and staff was great. Overall a good experience.
Cons (-) The “balcony” wasn’t really private and on a shared walkway. No bath robes in the rooms. Locks on doors are a little finicky.

Sean, May 2025
Pros (+) The Mandrake is a stunning and sensual hotel. The concept is interesting and it makes you feel like you’ve entered a different world. The staff are friendly, especially Simone at reception. YOPO was great.
Cons (-) My husband and I stayed there overnight for our wedding anniversary. We had booked the terrace room as it has an outdoor area. We were given room 9 and was thoroughly disappointed as the outdoor area was actually a walkway to their kitchen/service area. And it faces a restaurant/bar (not quite sure what it is). There are constantly people sitting there (not a metre away from our room) and staff dr...
