Stanhope House in 2016

Stanhope House is a Grade II listed building at 46 and 47 Park Lane in the Mayfair area of London, England.

It was built in 1899–1901 to a design by W. H. Romaine-Walker and Francis Besant.[1] The building was commissioned by the soap manufacturer Robert William Hudson.

It was Grade II listed in 1958.[1] In 1969–1970, after a fire, the interior was renovated.[2]

The building is now commercial offices. In 1999, it was purchased, refurbished and let out as offices by HAB Group, a privately owned property development and investment company in the Turks and Caicos Islands.[3]

Stanhope House and Dudley House are the only two left of the original ten mansions that lined Park Lane in 1900.[4]
