London gets some spectacular new hotels this fall
On September 12, the Peninsula opens its doors in London for the first time, followed by Mandarin Oriental opening in late September
The Peninsula is overlooking Hyde Park corner, close to Buckingham Palace. Architect Peter Marino has opted for a calm and considered approach in the 190 rooms and suites; they are as large and well-designed as you'd hope from their price tag, from £1,300 a night.
More quietly, a Mandarin Oriental is opening in Mayfair’s Hanover Square. There will be just 50 guest rooms alongside 78 residences for longer term stays. Compared to the front and centre nature of Knightsbridge MO, it’ll be quieter but the Akira Black restaurant will bring Michelin-starred Korean fusion cuisine.
