Rosewood Hotels & Resorts was appointed to manage a new, ultra-luxury hotel on Grosvenor Square in London’s Mayfair district, marking the second Rosewood property in London and its sixth in Europe.

“We are thrilled to embark on this exciting new venture, which will bring new life to this iconic building. The prestigious Mayfair neighborhood embodies elegance, culture, and sophistication, making it the ideal location for Rosewood’s second property in London,” says Sonia Cheng, CEO, Rosewood Hotel Group. “As one of Europe’s most coveted travel destinations, London strikes a special balance between the historical charms of the past and the contemporary comforts of the present, catering to a multitude of experiences that often cannot be found in one place.”

The 137-room hotel will be housed in the iconic building currently serving as the U.S. Embassy, offering a variety of dining and entertaining spaces, including five gourmet restaurants. It will also feature a signature spa, six flagship retail spaces and a grand ballroom for up to 1,000 guests.

British architect Sir David Chipperfield will oversee the design process, reimagining the mid-20^th-century building through elegant interior upgrades, while preserving the integrity of the historic property.

This announcement follows the recent successful reopening of Hôtel de Crillon, A Rosewood Hotel in Paris.
