The area

Address

Neighbourhood: Mayfair

Set beside some of London's best parks and home to world-class galleries, luxurious hotels, and famed thoroughfares, the ultra upscale Mayfair is one of London's most exclusive haunts. Here the shopping is haute, the dining is exquisite, and the nightlife is vibrant. A casual stroll through the area’s chic streets will reveal that Michelin stars and chauffeured cars are practically the norm here. Even if you're on a tight budget, this exceptionally well connected swath of Central London is worth exploring, if only for the chance to take a peak at the goings on of upper crust English society.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews

Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.

When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.

Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Iconic location!

Aug 2018 • Couples

This is a must see for any Bowie fan! The iconic location where the cover photo of the Ziggy Stardust album was shot. The gentrified street looks very different today, but the building is recognizable and is marked by a small plaque. A great spot to have your photo taken in an important location in musical history. Centrally located a block off of Regent St and close to Piccadilly Circus.

A must see for David Bowie fans

Aug 2018 • Family

The location of the cover of the Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars album by David Bowie is located very centrally, just off Regent Street at 23 Heddon Street. It used to be an industrial area and so it looks nothing like when the album cover was taken back in the early 1970s. However, they have a plaque and you can get your photo take at the spot. There are several cafes and restaurants on this side street if you want to take a break after for a refreshment.
