47 Park Street – Grand Residences by Marriott
It’s a not-too-uncommon rainy day in London’s Mayfair district. For the moment, though, the clouds are easing up and only a fine mist is falling. There’s a nip in the air as I walk down Park Street looking for Number 47. I soon find what I’m looking for. Like many of the stately buildings in the city center, the exterior has a neat-but-unassuming Edwardian façade – but in this case, it belies the grandeur inside.
As I make my way from the outside stoop to the foyer inside, I’m warmly greeted by the doorman and then the concierge. The attentiveness and courtesy of the staff seem on par with the finely appointed interiors, and within minutes I’m in one of the residential units; the cold and damp outside become more of memory with each sip of Earl Grey. No one needs to be told that London is an amazing, vibrant international city with history spilling out over each corner. Even on drearyweather days, there are endless possibilities.
The difference is staying at 47 Park Street, truly a home away from home.
One of the Grand Residences by Marriott, 47 Park Street is London’s first fractional ownership property offering elegantly designed one- and two- bedroom residences. Designed for frequent visitors to London, membership at 47 Park Street provides an alternative to committing a large amount of capital to a second home, and offers a significant financial advantage over staying in a luxury hotel suite.
Rich in period detail and with original features these residences are of rare distinction and present a timeless atmosphere. Each residence has a fully equipped kitchen and a separate living/dining room furnished with a full entertainment system, including satellite television and Wi-Fi Internet connection.
A spacious living and dining area, with elegant drapes and sumptuous gold, cream, and red furnishings, provides a sanctuary in which to relax and entertain. Members can leave personal belongings to be placed in the residence prior to their next arrival, enhancing the welcoming and comforting atmosphere.
