HOSPITALITY BRANDBOOK
The global reference for hospitality.
A defining London grand hotel, Claridge's combines Art Deco identity with highly personalised service and successive layers of contemporary design. Its public rooms are as culturally important as its accommodation.
The Story
Origin
The Claridge's name dates to 1856, with roots in an earlier lodging business. The hotel was substantially rebuilt at the end of the nineteenth century.
Philosophy
Continuity matters, but preserving a grand hotel requires ongoing investment rather than treating the building as a museum.
Why Important
An enduring reference for heritage-brand renewal and the role of public spaces in sustaining a luxury hotel's relevance.
Differentiation
The hotel combines international recognition with unusually strong local rituals and repeat-guest culture.
Food Philosophy
Dining, bars and afternoon tea operate as distinct reasons to visit, not simply amenities for overnight guests.
Guest Experience
Highly individualised service connects accommodation, afternoon tea, bars, dining and a contemporary spa.
Design Philosophy
Historic glamour is maintained through a collection of rooms and spaces by different designers rather than a single uniform aesthetic.
Design & Architecture
Lighting
Chandeliers and decorative fixtures reinforce the ceremonial quality of the public rooms.
Furniture
A mixture of period references and bespoke contemporary pieces.
Materials
Marble, polished wood, mirrors and decorative metalwork.
Architecture
A late-Victorian hotel with extensive subsequent alterations and additions.
Design Language
Art Deco glamour layered with contemporary luxury.
Interior Design
Historic public rooms coexist with individually authored suites, bars and wellness spaces.
