London Hilton on Park Lane has revealed it has embarked upon a highly-anticipated multi-million pound refurbishment, which aims to “completely transform the guest experience”.
Starting with the rooms and suites, the iconic Mayfair hotel, which opened in 1963, is undergoing a top-to-bottom renovation which will celebrate its heritage as the first Hilton hotel to open in the UK.
A new lobby layout will provide an “open, bright and welcoming space” with seating and a brand-new lobby bar.
The newly designed rooms and suites will maximise the hotel’s “unparalleled” panoramic views over London and Hyde Park with natural materials and colour schemes, giving a nod to the glamour of the 1960s with low slung furniture, soft edges and cutting-edge design.
The ground floor restaurant will also be renovated and relaunched offering modern British eating and drinking which champions an elevated local, seasonal and responsible approach to dining.
Matthew Mullan, general manager at London Hilton on Park Lane, said: “With a 60-year heritage, London Hilton on Park Lane is one of the capital’s most iconic hotels and as we celebrate our anniversary, we can’t wait to showcase this exceptional transformation to our guests.
“Envisioned by Conrad Hilton as the epitome of modern hospitality back in 1963, this new design pays homage to the hotel’s roots, adding a modern twist and celebrating its location on the edge of one of London’s finest parks.”
The hotel will remain open throughout the renovation, which will be completed in stages to minimise disruption to guests.
