Maybourne runs only six hotels, and on our numbers they are among the best-reviewed in luxury travel. Across the 400 most recent reviews at the four with enough of them, guests averaged 9.40 out of 10, and the Connaught's 9.79 was the highest of the 14 London luxury hotels we scored. Five of the six are Forbes Five-Star in 2026, and all six hold MICHELIN Keys, with Three for Claridge's and the Connaught. These guides add what the brochures leave out: what each hotel costs month by month, which ones barely sell online, and how our clients actually use them.

What Biirdee Does
A concierge travel agency: paid by the hotel, never by you
Biirdee Travel books luxury hotels through preferred-partner programs: you pay the same rate as booking direct, the partner benefits attach to your reservation, and a human concierge handles the details end to end.
Tell us the trip
Destination or property, rough dates, who’s traveling. The form takes two minutes and commits you to nothing.
A concierge replies within hours
A real person checks availability, compares properties honestly, and confirms the perks your stay qualifies for: upgrades, breakfast, and credits where available.
Book at the same rate as direct
The hotel pays our commission out of the rate you’d pay anyway, so the perks cost you nothing. Before and during the trip, one concierge on WhatsApp handles requests and changes.
Flying too? The same team books business and first class: flights and hotels aligned as one itinerary, one point of contact.
