The Peninsula has confirmed its upcoming London property will open on September 12.

The newly built hotel is situated at the junction where Hyde Park Corner meets Wellington Arch.

The hotel, along with 25 luxury residences, centres around a large off-street courtyard, landscaped in the style of a classic English garden allowing for off-street arrival along with valet parking and underground garage.

A total of 190 guest rooms and suites feature bespoke furnishings, textiles and artworks. All include mahogany-panelled dressing rooms and bathrooms clad in honey onyx.

Many rooms have floor-to ceiling-windows with views over Wellington Arch and Belgravia.  

Signature rooftop restaurant Brooklands offers modern-British cuisine from acclaimed chef Claude Bosi alongside a tasting lounge and cigar storage.

Other food and beverage venues include Canton Blue and adjacent bar, Little Blue, which offer Chinese cuisine, cocktails and tea; The Lobby, for traditional Peninsula afternoon tea; and casual day venue The Peninsula Boutique and Café for freshly made salads, sandwiches and sweets. 

At the Spa and Wellness Centre, guests can access a fully equipped fitness centre, a 25-metre indoor swimming pool and exercise classes and workshops. A digital Wellness Portal also provides guests with in-room, round-the-clock access to wellness programming. 

Nine luxury boutiques are available for shopping on the hotel’s ground-floor retail arcade. 

“We are delighted to launch The Peninsula London, which is the culmination of decades of looking for the most exceptional location in London,” said Clement Kwok, managing director and chief executive of The Hongkong and Shanghai Hotels, owner and operator of The Peninsula.

“We believe that the investment we have made into this project, the dedication of our people and the project teams we have worked with, and the quality and the attention to detail that we have strived for, will make this a unique hotel that we believe will stand out not only in London but globally, and will be one of the most important hotels in our group for generations to come.”

For a limited time, guests who reserve a room or suite at The Peninsula London can also enjoy special privileges, including an exclusive opening offer of £1,300 including daily breakfast for two; Peninsula Time, which offers flexible check-in and check-out times; use of a House car; and complimentary airport pick-up for all suite reservations.
