Mondrian London at Sea Containers, the first-ever Mondrian-branded boutique hotel to open outside the United States, has recently announced that it is now accepting reservations in advance of its Sept. 30 opening date. The property, owned by Morgans Hotel Group, promises to bring the energy of the original Hollywood hotel to the iconic Sea Containers building, located on London’s revitalised South Bank.
The new property, which will feature a combination of unique riverside views, two exciting new bars, and a restaurant, will reflect a bustling urban vibe all within walking distance of such iconic attractions as the Tate Modern, Borough Market, and the Southbank Centre.
Home to 359 guest rooms and suites, the hotel was designed by Design Research Studio under the creative direction of Tom Dixon, who based his vision on the Golden Age of Transatlantic Ship Travel, using ocean liner cabins as his inspiration.
The bar, 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 breathtaking views across the city.
New York chef Seamus Mullen has crafted a menu combining the best of Britain with America, featuring fresh produce sourced from nearby Borough Market. Working alongside Executive Chef Luke Rayment, Mullen will create dishes full of the delicate and natural flavours that characterise his cooking.
The restaurant’s open kitchen and visible wood-fired oven are key features of the eatery, alongside a standalone-seated dining bar in the middle of the room and a private dining room with a terrace. During the warmer months, customers can enjoy outdoor seating on the terrace, along the banks of the River Thames.
The spa, AGUA Bathhouse & Spa, will embrace the social community of Roman bathhouse cultures and boasts six spacious treatment suites and Spa & Glamour Lounges. The boutique urban spa was designed to give guests the sense that they are submersed in a tranquil, underwater dreamscape.
