RPW Design is pleased to announce the hand back of guestrooms and suites at the London Marriott Park Lane following a highly anticipated programme of works to its guestrooms, suites and public areas.
RPW’s original brief was to help reposition the five-star hotel in the local market, which is housed within a Grade II listed property in London’s Mayfair. Through the careful selection of quality materials and reworking of room layouts, RPW’s aim was to enhance the sense of luxury and increase the number of suites, making the hotel memorable to guests and the envy of its Park Lane hotelier neighbours.
Both the guestrooms and public areas were inspired by classic ‘townhouse’ interiors and RPW tried to recreate a quintessential British feel while using contemporary colours, furniture and artwork. The bedrooms are light and bright, with a timeless, luxurious feel. A pastel colour palette of white, dove grey and lavender has been used throughout in conjunction with leather, silk and polished wood. Bookmatched marble has been used in the bathrooms making them classically refined and specially commissioned pieces or art provide an inviting, personal touch. The rooms mark a considerable departure from the traditional corporate hotel room design towards something that feels more like a high end ‘home from home’.
By working closely with the hotel’s management team, the end product is one which represents a considerable achievement, combining classic design, marketing direction and long term vision whilst exceeding guest demands, developing operator brand standards and satisfying owner’s ROI requirements. The property has already been described as “the most desired accommodation in Mayfair” and has, as a result, been put at the top of the luxury destinations list in what is one of the most watched hotel markets in the world.
RPW Design’s public areas at the hotel were completed in late 2014 and create an understated, classic welcome, now matched in elegance by the bedrooms which lie beyond.
Managing Director, Jan Wilson, shares her satisfaction by saying “The completion of this project is a fitting tribute to RPW’s silver anniversary celebrating 25 years in the hospitality design industry. It brings together all that we have learned about successful collaboration and good, lasting, practical design with an aesthetic that aims to please all interested parties. We are proud to have been involved with the continuing evolution of this prominent building and the opportunity to strengthen our relationship with Marriott International. “
