Mandarin Oriental to Open Second Luxury Hotel in London, England

(19 May 2022, 12:51 +07)  Mandarin Oriental will this winter double its portfolio of luxury hotels in London, when the Mandarin Oriental Mayfair opens its doors.

Located on historic Hanover Square, in the heart of one of London’s most stylish neighbourhoods, the new property will complement its sister property, the Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park.

The Mandarin Oriental Mayfair will feature 50 guestrooms, 78 private residences, a spa, indoor 25-metre swimming pool, sauna, vitality pool, relaxation room, and the first namesake Akira Back restaurant in the UK from Michelin Star award-winning Chef Akira Back, as well as his ‘ABar Lounge’ concept.

Susanne Hatje, who has joined the new property as GM, said, “We are incredibly excited to open a Mandarin Oriental hotel in the heart of such an iconic location. Mayfair has such a rich history and pedigree within luxury, fashion and art and is continually evolving. This is a wonderful parallel for our new property, which will introduce delightful touches for which Mandarin Oriental is loved, but in a more intimate and informal setting. We feel that our warm, club-like atmosphere, which flows throughout the hotel, is set to make Mandarin Oriental Mayfair a new destination of choice in the area.”

The property has been designed by Rogers Stirk Harbour + Partners with the interior design of the hotel’s public spaces created by Tokyo-based studio, Curiosity, and the 50 guestrooms and suites designed by UK-based Studio Indigo.

Artworks by local British artists will feature throughout the hotel with one-off furniture pieces curated by Curiosity’s founder, Gwenael Nicolas.
