Brown's Hotel is the oldest accommodation in London and where Rudyard Kipling wrote 'The Jungle Book' Opened in 1837 in the Mayfair neighborhood, Mark Twain, Agatha Christie and Stephen King also found inspiration within the walls of this hotel. Its biggest surprise: a'suite' inspired by the world of Mowgli, where a manuscript by its creator is on display.
It is said that the first telephone call on British soil was made by Alexander Graham Bell from one of the rooms on the lower floor.
