Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park, London completes restoration

Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park is one of London’s most prestigious addresses.

Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park, London has completed the most extensive restoration in its 115-year history.
In celebration, an exclusive “Be the First to Stay” room package is being offered from June 1 to July 31. Priced from £695 ($803), this package includes daily breakfast, a drink on arrival, plus a credit (ranging from £75 to £350 depending on the room/suite category booked) to be used within the new spa, Mandarin Bar, The Rosebery Lounge or Bar Boulud.
Internationally renowned designer, Joyce Wang, has overseen the design of all guest rooms, suites and public areas, taking inspiration from the hotel’s royal heritage and peaceful parkside location, as well as the glamor of the early 20th century’s Golden Age of travel.
“All 181 guest rooms and suites are now more luxurious and comfortable than ever before, with art deco-inspired features including carefully curated artworks, and custom-designed furniture,” the hotel said in a statement.
The hotel has also installed a green living wall that surrounds the inner courtyard, providing calm interior views.
Each of the hotel’s 40 suites range in size from the smallest, at 47 square meters, located within the turrets of the hotel, to the largest, at 397 square meters. The latter, located on the top floor, is a three-bedroom Mandarin Oriental Penthouse with private terraces. Comprised of two spacious interconnecting suites — The Mandarin and The Oriental — this accommodation which will launch in July, offers guests expansive views of leafy Hyde Park and the London skyline.
In every suite, guests will find reading libraries curated by the well-known London bookseller, Heywood Hill, record players with vintage vinyl collections and yoga mats for private practice. All accommodation comes equipped with GHD hair straighteners, Nespresso coffee makers, his and her Miller Harris bathroom amenities and Jo Hansford hair products.
New York designer Adam D. Tihany, has overseen the redesign of the spa at Mandarin Oriental, London. The spa menu has also been enhanced to include partnerships with health and wellness experts across the world.
As part of the first phase of the renovation, the building’s façade was revitalized, and designer Wang transformed the Lobby Lounge and Reception area to maximize natural daylight, and blend with The Rosebery Lounge’s nature inspired décor.
Upon arrival, guests are greeted with a centerpiece glass chandelier in the shape of a closed flower bud, which is further complemented by an open flower blossom chandelier suspended over the lounge area.
