Green Park and St James’s sit between Mayfair and Buckingham Palace. It’s understated power London. Gentle green space, heritage tailoring houses, private clubs, and some of the city’s most traditional institutions. It’s calm, walkable, and very polished. Less shopping frenzy, more quiet prestige. Best for: Royal adjacency, refined strolls, traditional London elegance, discreet drinks.
