Announced in 1887 as Hyde Park Court, the building’s proposed height caused genuine controversy, with residents fearing it would cast a shadow over the Serpentine lake. It opened in 1889 as an exclusive gentlemen’s club before a serious fire in 1899 led to its conversion into the Hyde Park Hotel in 1902.
Royal tradition barred advertising inside Hyde Park, so the hotel’s name and main entrance moved to face Knightsbridge instead, leaving the original park-facing loggia reserved for royal use only, a protocol upheld ever since. Mandarin Oriental purchased the hotel in 1996, completing a £57 million restoration by 2000.
