Location
The hotel is in Knightsbridge, near The Knightsbridge Apartments, One Hyde Park and 10 Lancelot Place.[2] It is close to Harrods and Hyde Park.[3] When completed, it was the first 5-star hotel to be built in prime Central London in over 30 years.
History
The hotel was built by Sir Robert McAlpine from 2010 to 2012,[4] in place of the former Normandie Hotel.[5] It was dedicated in May 2012.[2][6] It was designed by Antonio Citterio, Patricia Viel & Partners.[2] It was built with Portland stones.[2] There are ten floors up and six underground floors.[citation needed]
There are 85 rooms and suites.[2][3] All the rooms are designed in the same manner.[7] The main thematic design is silver.[6] The ballroom, which has a silver chandelier, can be rented for wedding receptions.[8] It is "eco-friendly"; for example, the rainwater is recycled for the toilets.[9] There is also a garden on the roof, or "green roof",[6] with bat boxes.[9]
In 2013, it signed a two-year contract with the Royal Albert Hall to be referred to visitors as its preferred luxury hotel.[10]
In 2017, Bulgari London Hotel Private Screening Room was named as one of the top private screening rooms in London by Ikon London Magazine.[11]
It is owned by Marriott International, Inc.
