Mondrian London at Sea Containers prepares for opening

Morgans Hotel Group has now opened reservations for Mondrian London at Sea Containers on the capital’s South Bank, in advance of the hotel opening its doors on September 30th 2014.

The first ever Mondrian branded boutique hotel outside the United States, the hotel will bring the energy of the original Hollywood hotel to the iconic Sea Containers building.

Located on London’s revitalised South Bank, Mondrian London at Sea Containers boasts a wealth of diverse culture on its doorstep, including the Tate Modern, Borough market and the Southbank Centre all within walking distance.

With a combination of unique riverside views, two exciting new bars, a restaurant and a bustling urban vibe reflecting the local neighbourhood, Mondrian is set to become London’s new destination.

Many of the 359 guest rooms and suites offer stunning river and city views, with the hotel designed by Design Research Studio under the creative direction of Tom Dixon.

Mondrian London will bring the glamour of Anglo-American, transatlantic travel together with Dixon’s unique industrial constructions to create a distinct design for the property.

A striking, soft chain sculpture standing next to a dramatic copper hull act as focal points for guests entering the hotel lobby, effortlessly highlighting the contrasting design forces.

With the Golden Age of Transatlantic Ship Travel as a departure point and ocean liner cabins as his inspiration, he has created fitted and well-thought-out rooms, incorporating metallic and brass throughout.

Dandelyan, headed up by cocktail expert Ryan Chetiyawardana (AKA Mr Lyan), will serve innovative cocktails and refined interpretations of the classics, taking inspiration from the botanical wilds of the British countryside and around the world.

Mondrian London will also house an exclusive rooftop bar with breath-taking views across the city.

One of New York’s most exciting and dynamic chefs, Seamus Mullen, has crafted a menu combining the best of Britain with America.

In addition to over 20,000 square feet of food, beverage and spa outlets at Mondrian London, the hotel will also feature six flexible spaces with over 5,500 square feet of stylish and unique venues for meetings, groups and special events.

All facilities will provide state-of-the-art audio, video and telecommunications capabilities, and the hotel will also include a 56-seat private screening room and seven fully-wired and linked junket rooms with terraces and river views for a variety of entertainment needs. 

Additionally, the hotel will house the new London headquarters of advertising and communications industry experts, Ogilvy Group.
