The Twenty Two, a new hotel with an all-day public restaurant and a private members’ club, will be opening on the historic Grosvenor Square in London’s Mayfair in Spring 2022.
Set within a Edwardian Manor at number 22 Grosvenor Square, the the 42,500 sq ft property is being redesigned into a Westside hideaway housing 31 bedrooms and suites, including a mews house.
Members’ of The Twenty Two, and in-house hotel guests, are invited to use the club as a place to collaborate and unwind, with exclusive access to an all-day lounge space with a bar and open outdoor terrace that overlooks Grosvenor Square, an evening dining room with a covered outdoor terrace, as well as a cocktail bar.
This visionary project is the realisation of hospitality entrepreneur, hotelier and tech investor Navid Mirtorabi, who says: “We want to redefine the traditional Mayfair hotel and club by bringing a new community to this iconic part of the city. To create a space where people can come together and feel welcome, regardless of where they come from, what their profession is and what they choose to wear.
“London is a melting pot of creative people from all cultural backgrounds and we want to celebrate that at The Twenty Two.”
Managing director Darius Namdar adds: “Our vision is to instil a more playful side to Mayfair. We want everyone who passes through The Twenty Two to experience exceptional service, be greeted with a smile and, most importantly, feel welcome and accepted, while enjoying the best hospitality London has to offer.”
The interior design is being led by the award-winning luxury designer Natalia Miya. It is her first hotel project, with each room and public space being expertly decorated in an opulent yet welcoming style.
The design concept boasts rich textured fabrics, elegantly embroidered silks, lavish velvets and bespoke wallpapers – a modern interpretation of classic maximalism.
It pays homage to the grandeur and legacy of the building, with original architectural features, including double height ceilings, restored within some of the guest bedrooms and suites. The bedrooms will feature bespoke amenities, and 24-hour room service will be available alongside the hotel mini bars.
With the kitchen overseen by Executive Chef Alan Christie, the all-day public restaurant will serve modern-British menus with influence from southern Europe, while the beverage offering at each of four bars will showcase the brand’s own spirits, creative cocktails and imaginative low-ABV alternatives.
