Patrick Nadeau's 50,000-plant living chandelier and mortarless Yorkshire dry-stone walls greet arrivals, filtering Mayfair rush into a calm indoor woodland.
“Inside, you are greeted by a giant suspended plant chandelier, a reception desk hewn from the trunk of a giant oak tree…”

Also in The 50 Discovery, Wallpaper* and AFAR.
Clean-lined Scandinavian-inspired design defines the spaces, which are warmed with living greenery and soft, organic textures.
“This sustainable eco-friendly ethos percolates into all aspects of the hotel, including the Bamford Wellness Spa - a serene haven that offers a holistic menu of treatments – as well as the 181 rooms, which are layered with materials from British oak flooring to hand-woven jute.”
In a lively part of town
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Green Park sits across Piccadilly, with the historic shops of Burlington Arcade and bespoke tailors of Savile Row a short walk away.

The rooms
Textured linen cushions, sisal rugs, and living moss soften the bedrooms, equipped with filtered water taps and wine-bottle glassware.
The spa
Treatment rooms set behind timber paneling host organic Bamford facials, sound therapy, and red light recovery sessions.
The gym
The Field House gym holds Technogym equipment and yoga space, and organizes a weekly run club through the Royal Parks.
Restaurant
Dovetale
Chef Tom Sellers serves seasonal British cooking beside an outdoor stone fireplace, alongside a tableside Knickerbocker Glory trolley.
Airy interiors, meanwhile, marry living moss with organic materials, reclaimed timber and furnishings crafted from wood off-cuts.
Bar
Dover Yard
Bartenders mix low-waste cocktails beside an open fireplace, and resident DJs play on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights.
How it began
Rather than rebuilding, the property retrofitted two existing Mayfair office blocks, preserving over eighty percent of the original structural frame.
“hundreds of plants in dozens of species pepper the 181-room sanctuary, which includes hundreds of square feet of living walls”
