The Beaumont Mayfair’s multi-million-pound facelift
The Beaumont Mayfair has long been a beacon of old-school hospitality and discreet luxury since its original opening in 2014. Positioned in the heart of Mayfair overlooking Brown Hart Gardens, London’s iconic hotel has undergone a stunning multi-million-pound renovation.
The newly renovated luxury hotel occupies a building originally known as Macy’s – one of the first garages designed primarily for shoppers, offering free parking to customers of the nearby Selfridges department store. The building, classical in style, boasts a grand collonaded entrance that once sheltered an array of petrol pumps. Its exterior columns, with a somewhat Egyptian appearance, are set against a striking white stone facade.
Featuring 101 rooms and suites – including Anthony Gormley’s famous ROOM – the hotel houses an exquisite collection of art, as well as chic F&B spaces. From the sophisticated setting of Gatsby’s Room, where guests can enjoy a Champagne Afternoon Tea, to the Le Magritte Bar, known for its extensive Bourbon collection, classic cocktails and Cuban Cigars cabinet, and the charming Terrace which brings alfresco café culture to Brown Hart Gardens.
This September will see the launch of Rosi, a new flagship restaurant celebrating British comfort with seasonal recipes. Transforming the space with his vibrant signature style, renowned British Artist and Designer Luke Edward Hall will take over the space with a series of commissioned murals telling the story of ‘a day in London’ through his lens of irreverent romanticism. This comes in addition to its recent expansion of 29 new rooms and suites, as well as a stylish refurbishment of the existing 72 rooms, lobby, bar and restaurant, and more to come.
Inspired by the Turkish baths at the Royal Automobile Club in London and the original New York YMCA, the Art Deco Hammam and Spa is clad in shimmering black and white marble mosaics and features a traditional warmed, marble hammam table, sauna and steam room; four treatment rooms and a relaxation area. A range of beauty therapy, hammam and massage treatments is offered, as well as hairdressing services.
Rates at The Beaumont Mayfair start from £600 for a Classic Room, or £1,564 for a Classic Suite, B&B.
