Hotel of the Month – The Emory

The Emory, a modern architectural masterpiece designed by the late Richard Rogers and Ivan Harbour of RSHP, has opened its doors in Belgravia.

Situated on a secluded laneway overlooking Hyde Park, London’s first all-suite hotel brings a new standard of contemporary design and discreet ‘quiet’ luxury to the capital, delivering a feeling of intimacy and calm more usually associated with residential settings.

Set over nine floors, The Emory’s 61 extraordinary suites, complete with their floor-to-ceiling glass windows, are the work of some of the world’s foremost interior designers. This accommodation is spearheaded by a spectacular 300sqm wraparound glass penthouse.

On the ground floor of the hotel sits the restaurant, abc kitchens, from renowned chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten. Here the menus reflect Vongerichten’s passionate commitment to fresh, organic, sustainable and ethically sourced local produce, and showcase his creative, forward-thinking and plant-focused approach.

The food is complemented by a spectacular interior designed by Rémi Tessier, featuring warm wood tones, polished copper, a vertical glass wine cellar and a colossal statement Rosso Orobico marble block, alongside a series of artwork by Damien Hirst titled ‘The Secret Gardens Paintings’.

Tessier has also designed The Emory Bar, once again located on the ground floor, where the retractable glass doors offer a unique indoor-outdoor experience.

With its unparalleled 360-degree view of the London skyline, The Emory’s spectacular rooftop on the tenth floor is the jewel in its crown. Featuring two glass pavilions parallel to the steel ‘sails’ of the building, they are home to The Emory Cigar Merchants and Bar 33, a sweeping space dedicated to hotel guests only, or by private invitation. In the summer months the roof can retract in both pavilions.

Setting a new service standard in the capital, all guests receive a return private chauffeur driven car from London’s private airfields or international airports, daily English breakfast served in-suite or within abc kitchens, complimentary in-suite bar and 24-hour service from a personal Emory Assistant. They also enjoy exclusive access to Surrenne, a new private members’ club spread over four subterranean floors of the hotel.
