The new-build hotel in Belgravia looks out onto Hyde Park Corner and London’s famous Wellington Arch and centres around an off-street courtyard, landscaped in the style of a classic English garden with ivy, wisteria, and 120-year-old Japanese maples.
The Peninsula London’s interiors are designed by Peter Marino, and include 190 guest rooms and suites which “evoke the feel of private residences”. The hotel has worked with a range of British brands, artisans and artists to create its first UK property, such as fashion designer Jenny Packham, perfumier Timothy Han, and more than 40 artists from The Royal Drawing School.
