Announced the agreement reached between Marriott International, Cola Holdings and The Westbury Hotel Limited, London's first St. Regis will soon open its doors. The project will take shape in an affluent neighborhood, that of Mayfair. It is one of the most charming areas of the city, ideal for a luxury hotel that aims to blend two souls. On the one hand, there will be room for the brand's classic style, and on the other it will cast a glance in an avant-garde direction.
The project Should be completed in 2023. One year from now, then, room for the first guests at the corner of Bond Street and Conduit Street. Twelve months or so of waiting because an entirely new facility is not going to be built. The former Westbury Mayfair hotel will be transformed and redeveloped.

St. Regis in London: what to expect
The aesthetic impact will definitely be significant, both outside and inside, with a total investment of 90 million pounds, or about 107 million euros. Peter Newman of Morrison Design will sign off on the project. As for the interior, however, it will be entrusted to Richmond International. The hotel will provide as many as 196 rooms for future guests.
Interesting work is also planned at the back, extending the property. The idea is to create common areas that are larger than the current ones. Deep restoration work will also be done on the facade. Great attention will be paid to amenities, starting with the temporary parking area located at the main entrance. This will undergo a distinct styling intervention.
The project is intriguing, to say the least, and fans of the brand are certainly looking forward to it. The latest widespread reports point out that there will be room for a exclusive restaurant, which they can take advantage of even though they are not hotel guests. Same for what will be a speakeasy jazz bar. While the spa and the fitness center will be for the exclusive use of those who have booked a room or suite.
The choice of the Westbury Mayfair is not accidental. This was once a structure of great value and style, and there is a need to remember its memory. There is every intention to do so, preserving the Polo Bar, an iconic venue originally designed for the Phipps. They are a well-known American family, polo enthusiasts, who created the Westbury Hotel in New York and London.
