COMO Metropolitan London

History

The building at 19 Old Park Lane dates to the Victorian era and sits within the conservation area surrounding Hyde Park. The property has been developed as a hotel in the modern period, reflecting the evolution of Mayfair as a destination for international hospitality. The COMO brand brings Asian-inflected design and service practices to a traditional London location, representing a shift in how luxury accommodation operates in the neighbourhood.

Neighbourhood

Old Park Lane runs along the eastern edge of Hyde Park, one of London's largest green spaces, making it an unusually verdant address for central Mayfair. The location offers immediate access to the park's walking routes and Rotten Row. Knightsbridge tube station sits nearby, with Harrods and upscale retail further along Brompton Road. The area attracts international travellers and those seeking proximity to both the park and Mayfair's galleries and restaurants.

The experience

COMO Metropolitan operates with an emphasis on wellness and bespoke service, drawing on the brand's Southeast Asian heritage. Guests can expect considered interior design, a spa-focused approach to hospitality, and restaurants that reflect contemporary Asian cuisines. The hotel maintains the discretion and operational standards expected of five-star properties in Mayfair, with attention to personalised service and curated experiences rather than high-volume efficiency.
