A brief introduction to Marylebone

The pronunciation of the name of this area divides even life-long resident Londoners. Whether you call it ‘Marry-leh-bon’ or ‘Marly-bone’, this neighbourhood is undoubtedly one of the most exclusive addresses in the city.

Alongside one of its most famous streets – Harley Street, a globally renowned centre for medical care – Marylebone is currently a high-end shopping destination, renowned for its designer boutiques and luxury homewares stores. The area also boasts a number of exclusive bars and restaurants, including the current celebrity-favourite, the Chiltern Firehouse.
