Hospitality brand 1 Hotels has made its debut in Europe with the opening of the 1 Hotel Mayfair in London.
Located in the city’s Mayfair district, overlooking Green Park, the eight-story property comprises 181 rooms, including 44 suites. The hotel’s top-tier suite is its one-bedroom Penthouse accommodation, which spans nearly 2,950 square feet and offers a private terrace with park views.
In line with 1 Hotels’ nature-focused design ethos, the 1 Hotel Mayfair is home to more than 200 plant species, with 1,300 individual plants located throughout the property’s public and guestroom spaces. The hotel also showcases a variety of nature-inspired art pieces, including a Patrick Nadeau-designed lobby chandelier created with air plants.
On the food and beverage front, the hotel is anchored by a ground-floor restaurant called Dovetale. Helmed by Michelin-starred chef Tom Sellers, the Dovetale restaurant and garden terrace concept specializes in European fare made with seasonal, organic and locally sourced ingredients.
Adjacent to Dovetale is a cocktail bar and lounge called Dover Yard, as well as Neighbours, a venue that serves coffee and snacks during the day and switches to an aperitif menu in the evening.
The 1 Hotel Mayfair also has a wellness area with a gym and relaxation space. A Bamford Wellness Spa with three treatment rooms is set to join the wellness mix by late August.
Rates at the 1 Hotel Mayfair start at roughly $920 per night.
1 Hotels, which now has 11 properties within its portfolio, has plans to expand further in Europe, with projects slated for Paris; Copenhagen, Denmark; and Crete also in the pipeline.
