The Peninsula London, a joint venture between Grosvenor Britain & Ireland and The Hongkong and Shanghai Hotels, Limited, is a proposed 190-room hotel with a desirable London address.
Plans have been submitted to Westminster City Council to replace the existing 1960s office block, which currently sits on the prime location of Hyde Corner, with a mixed-use development encompassing a spa; shops; bars; restaurants; ballroom; 24-28 residential apartments with a separate leisure and spa facility, reception and entrance on Halkin Street.
Designed by British-based Hopkins Architects, the redevelopment of 1 – 5 Grosvenor Place aims to create a landmark building for Belgravia.
Plans also include the improved public areas in Grosvenor Place, Halkin Street and Grosvenor Crescent, with wider footpaths, easier road crossings and additional trees planted along Halkin Street and Grosvenor Crescent. These proposals are designed by BDP who have worked with Grosvenor since 2007.
Construction is due to commence in summer 2017.
