If you saw our recent story about The Dorchester's slipper collaboration with Edhèn Milano, you'll remember we mentioned that both iterations of beautifully luxurious blue mules were inspired by the newly renovated rooms and suites at the historic hotel. Well, now we've got a first look at those spaces. The Dorchester has released a series of photos of its reimagined guest rooms and suites, which are now available to book by patrons. The news marks the latest milestone in the hotel's largest renovation project in over three decades, following on from the reopening of the refreshed ground floor in January.
Re-envisioned by renowned interior design firm Pierre-Yves Rochon, these new guest rooms blend 1930s glamour with a contemporary edge and draw inspiration from the hotel’s overlooking Hyde Park. The guest experience has been modernised for a residential style of comfort, whilst embracing the defining elements of the property’s past, including British stage designer Oliver Messel’s signature lavish style.
Colours in each room have been inspired by an English garden, from pale leaf green and rose fog pink, to heather blue and lemon yellow. Spanish Alarwool custom woven carpets adorn rooms and corridors, in keeping with the hotel’s signature carpet style, and select suites feature headboards hand-painted by de Gournay. Recognised for its classic English appeal, Colefax and Fowler’s floral fabrics enhance the walls and headboards in all guest rooms.
