Five Hotels in London For Russian Billionaires

Where: Bond Street, London, United Kingdom, W1S 2YF

The Polo Bar at the Westbury: scene of the crimeski.

So, you’re a billionaire. A Russian one, no less. You’re in London. And instead of buying up half of Chelsea to sleep in on your odd visits, like all the other RBs, you want to stay in a hotel. How quaint!

Don’t worry, though - you don’t have to lose face among your (insanely rich) fellow countrymen if you follow our HotelChatter suggestions for where to stay, and you shouldn’t get poisoned, either. These places aren’t any old five stars – they’re five stars worth of Abramovich et al. Enjoy-ski!
