A new luxury hotel has opened on London’s prestigious Grosvenor Square for travellers willing to splash out from £1,280 per night.

The £1bn hotel’s facilities include an expansive spa and eight new restaurants and bars, including the first European outpost of Carbone, a favourite among celebrities in the US.

Set in the former US embassy on Grosvenor Square, Mayfair, the Grade II-listed building was originally designed by Finnish-American architect Eero Saarinen in 1960.
British architect Sir David Chipperfield and Qatari Diar Europe LLP led the building’s architectural restoration ahead of the hotel’s opening. Rooms were designed by French interior architect Joseph Dirand.
Accommodation categories range from junior suites to private houses, with two penthouse suites, complete with a terrace and dining room for 10, on the seventh floor. The residential-style accommodation, known as Chancery House, costs more than £20,000 per night.
