Clear sky Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park
With the tranquillity of Hyde Park on one side and the sophistication of Knightsbridge on the other, the historic five-star Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park boasts London's most perfect location.
Having started life as a private Gentleman's Club in 1889, it was transformed in to London's newest and grandest hotel in 1908 and became home to many distinguished guests. Members of the Royal Family have always been frequent visitors here and even the Queen learned to dance within the glorious Ballroom. This magnificent hotel also boasts the only private Royal Entrance on to the park, and Winston Churchill lived here during the war – this is just some of the wonderful history this hotel has to offer.
Having completed a £50 million restoration, Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park allows guests to be surrounded by luxury, whilst experiencing service and facilities that surpass even the highest of expectations.
All of the rooms and suites have been individually furnished and decorated in true Victorian style. Behind the exquisite materials and handcrafted finishes lies the latest technology. Breath-taking views over Hyde Park are offered from all of the sumptuous suites, along with a level of refined luxury that only something of uncompromising quality can achieve. Each of the rooms are lovingly prepared with Irish linen bed sheets, goose-down pillows, luxury designer bathroom products and fresh orchids.
The Spa at Mandarin Oriental offers a haven of tranquillity in the heart of Knightsbridge. It is a place where East and West blend in harmony and drawing on exotic therapies and philosophies from around the world, a series of tailor-made treatments, known as rituals, are created exclusively for you. Guests are encouraged to arrive 40 minutes before their appointment so that they can immerse themselves within the philosophy of the spa and relax within the Amethyst crystal steam room, vitality pool, sanarium and zen relaxation room. There is also a state-of-the-art gymnasium.
With unrivalled views over Hyde Park, the hotel's award-winning restaurant, Foliage, draws its inspiration from the park. It combines striking contemporary design with modern European cuisine where the emphasis is on fresh seasonal ingredients. The Park, offering the same views, provides a vibrant and informal setting for light all-day dining, whilst the Mandarin Bar is the epicentre of Knightsbridge nightlife with a wide range of cocktails, exotic nibbles and live jazz music until 2am.
All of this, along with magnificent private meeting rooms, has made this hotel London's premier address.

Great Location, Miss the Old Ambiance
I still really like this hotel, but I miss the old Hyde Park and the Cavalry Grill with it's clubby feel and quitessential British menu.
The rooms are very well appointed, but of course you want to be on the park side since the traffic on Kinghtsbridge can be noisy. They have every amenity you expect in an ultra luxury hotel... great TV's, CD, DVD, WiFi, etc. and the staff is exceptionally well trained.
The restaurants are very nice, but I confess more times than not I buy food from the food halls at Harrod's, grab a nice claret and dine en suite.
The Spa is terrific and a great way to unwind after a tough week of business meetings.

Great Stay at Mandarin
I recently stayed at the Mandarin Oriental for 5 nights. Upon arrival we were greeted at the front door and escorted to our room where we checked in once in the room! I had requested a room on the top floor, which we did get even though we arrived at the hotel way before check-in time.
The room was perfect, comfortable bed, nice furnishings, impeccably clean, nice bathroom and a huge Bang and Olufsen TV.
The service was also great, everybody was very attentive and always available for any request we had. The concierge was outstanding too. The got us into very nice restaurants with very short notice.
I also liked the fact that it is a luxury hotel without necessarily being stuffy or snobby like many of its competitors.
I will definitely stay there again. Sometimes they offer great rates.

One Night Stay
I had need to stay one night in London at short notice and was unable to stay at the hotel of my choice. I turned to WhataHotel to find something at short notice. This they did and were able to provide an excellent package for my one night stay. Upon my arrival at the hotel I was given a room upgrade without asking to a very nice suite. The suite was excellent and the hotel was close to Harrods and other named shops in the area. Staff came across as polite and helpful. I did not have dinner at the hotel but did have breakfast the following morning in my suite which, came on time, well presented and hot!! Time did not allow me to try the spa which I have read is excellent. A very short stay but nice!

DONT ASK FOR TEA & COFFEE
An excellent hotel, clean ,tidy,friendly,and a great location in London. In Knightsbridge,ideal for tube, Harrods, Harvey Nichols,etc.Reception & check in friendly & efficient.A very smart trendy bar.Full english breakfast very good, but ridiculously overpriced at L30.Only had 1 problem, we requested tea & coffee facilities in both our rooms, they were not there on arrival, although they soon provided them when we pointed it out. When rooms were cleaned next day, they were taken & not replaced untill we asked, the same thing happened again when the room was turned down. But overall a very nice experience, ( apart from the fire alarm going off at 4.20 AM). Also worth mentioning,we took a courtyard room,with not a particularly brilliant view,but the quality of the room makes up for this. Try a courtyard king room,the TV is huge !
