Opened in 2011, this sister-hotel of the Dorchester has fast become one of<br />
the chicest hotels in London. The contemporary interior design is provided<br />
by world renowned architect Thierry Despont, who has created a décor that<br />
focuses on personal living—the idea is to create an atmosphere that feels<br />
like a private residence. The façade has become an instantly recognisable<br />
feature of Park Lane—the bold horizontal ‘fins’ are eco-friendly, resisting<br />
solar gain to the hotel, thereby reducing the power required to run the<br />
hotel’s air conditioning system. The environmental theme continues with<br />
the location of 45 Park Lane—opposite the sprawling Hyde Park, the<br />
hotel offers scintillating views from all of the suites. Wolfgang Puck has<br />
brought his celebrated CUT concept to London with a restaurant on the<br />
ground floor, which alongside the sleek Bar 54, brings a bit of Beverly Hills<br />
glamour to the London dining scene. Within walking distance of Regent<br />
Street and Piccadilly, this state-of-the-art hotel offers instant access to<br />
London shopping.<br />

THE PENTHOUSE SUITE<br />

Why we love it: If having a fantastic view over one of the most iconic locations<br />
in London sounds like your idea of perfection then the Penthouse Suite may be<br />
for you. Situated on the ninth floor of the hotel and accessible only by a private<br />
elevator, the suite offers beautiful views over the park from the 360° wraparound<br />
terrace. The décor carries on the theme from the rest of the hotel—warm colors<br />
and light textures coming together to create a deeply personal living space.<br />
The master bedroom features a king-size bed, the living room is packed full of<br />
high-tech gadgetry and the dining area is great for entertaining guests.
