Claridge’s is one of the fanciest hotels in the UK. For more than 200 years the luxurious spot has been welcoming elite clientele – from Queen Victoria and Albert to Queen Bey and Jay Z.
The bougie Mayfair hotel has always been famous for its flowers, with stunning displays and huge floral installations a key part of the interior décor. The hotel even has its own in-house team of expert florists and designers, ready to whip up bouquets for guests’ rooms, events and weddings at any moment.
Now, Claridge’s has opened a brand-new flower shop, where us folk who could never afford a room at the hotel can buy flowers created by the hotel’s crack team. Found behind the hotel on Brooks Mews, Claridge’s Flowers is a florist and workshop where seasonal blooms and foliage can be bought by the stem. You can get them simply wrapped to arrange at home, or get Claridge’s to arrange them into a pretty bouquet.
Specialising in seasonal blooms, the shop promises to showcase the best of British flowers, from dahlias to delphinium and hellebores to hydrangeas. Also available to buy are coloured glassware and artisanal vases to hold your new blooms. Being Claridge’s, don’t expect to come here for a bargain bouquet. Prices start at £25 for a wrap of seasonal stems, and it’s all uphill from there.
The Brooks Mews workshop will also host ‘Flowers After Hours’, a series of evening masterclasses where guests can learn to create a floral display with the hotel’s florists while sipping cocktails.
Claridge’s Flowers, Brooks Mews, W1K 4HR. Monday-Saturday 10am-6pm, Sundays 11am-3pm.
