Mondrian Hotel

London, England

Mondrian Hotel, London, England
June 23, 2017 Pauline

Establishment now part of the must-visit hotels in the British capital, the Mondrian of London seduced by its riverside location on the Thames and its unique decor. The very famous designer Tom Dixon was tasked with giving the hotel its soul: if you like cozy and ultra-classic interiors, you'd probably be better off looking elsewhere. But if, on the other hand, you like to be surprised, disconcerted, and if design is an important part of your hotel expectations: welcome to the Mondrian London!

To the relatively minimalist decor, even though the «Dixon touch» is naturally present, the rooms have a major asset: a sublime view of the Thames. Unless you are truly exhausted, London is likely to very largely captivate you: a Deluxe room with a river view should be enough to make you happy. You will love its very functional aspect, its elegance, and the quality of the amenities offered.

Inspired by the ocean liners that once plied the transatlantic route, the Mondrian London takes this metaphor all the way to its restaurant: the Sea Containers. Breakfast, dinner, lunch, or cocktails: all occasions are good for enjoying inventive and inspired cuisine with a view of the Thames.

The Mondrian hotel also has a «lounge» called «The Den»: an ultra-cozy space that invites complete relaxation. In the evening, treat yourself to a cocktail at the now-legendary Dandelyan, designed by Ryan Chetiyawardana, aka Mr Lyan, and of course decorated by Tom Dixon: a unique place that offers a magnificent view of the city.

In a nutshell

  • Decorations designed by designer Tom Dixon.
  • Modern and elegant rooms.
  • A hotel inspired by transatlantic ocean liners.

Dining: OXO Tower Restaurant

Leave your hotel to explore London: just a stone's throw from the Mondrian is the’OXO Tower Restaurant. In a relaxed atmosphere, this restaurant has a major asset: it is one of the brightest establishments in the capital and offers a very beautiful view. The dishes are simple, but relatively well executed, and there is a pleasant vegan/vegetarian menu. Try it in the evening, if possible, by booking a table near the window: ask your concierge to work wonders!
