1 Hotel’s first UK property to open in London Mayfair in 2022

1 Hotels, the luxury hotel brand founded by Starwood Capital Group chairman and CEO Barry Sternlicht, will open its first UK hotel, the 1 Hotel London Mayfair, in 2022.

Located in the heart of Mayfair overlooking Green Park, 1 Hotel London Mayfair will be operated by SH Hotels & Resorts and will the hotel group’s flagship property.

The nine-story hotel will house 184 guest rooms, a “farm-to-table” restaurant with garden seating and a bespoke fitness and wellness center. 1 Hotel London will also feature a communal lobby bar.

The hotel is part of a 260,000 square foot mixed use project being developed by London-based Crosstree Real Estate Partners that will include sustainably-designed offices and prime retail.

The interiors will be designed using locally sourced materials, as well as sustainable elements and practices throughout, including reclaimed wood, fabric and custom finishes.

Sternlicht said: “1 Hotel London will undoubtedly set a new standard in the city for the luxury hotel experience, while also advancing our brand mission to inspire conscious consumption and become a platform for change.

“Now, more than ever, the idea of living well must include the thoughtful and thorough protection of the natural beauty that is everywhere, and nowhere is that effort more important than the UK, with its growing commitment to the adoption of sustainable practices, its stunning countrywide landscape and the diverse cityscape of London.”

Sean Arnold, co-founding partner at Crosstree, added: “We are thrilled to be working with 1 Hotels to deliver their unique brand of ‘luxury hospitality with a conscience’ to this important site at the gateway of London’s Mayfair.

“Both 1 Hotel’s focus on sustainability and its innovative position within the hotel landscape make them a perfect partner for us, and we look forward to introducing the brand to London.”
