InterContinental London - The Capital Suite
InterContinental London Park Lane is delighted to announce the launch of The Capital Suite, reaffirming the hotel's position as a leader in luxury.
The Capital Suite takes its name from the hotel's iconic setting in London, a global leader in both commerce and culture, and the Capital Suite embodies both aspects of the effervescent city. Paying homage to the historical site, rooms within the suite have been named after the surrounding areas of Hamilton Place and the magnificent Wellington Arch, which once stood as a grand entrance to our capital city. The suite offers unparalleled views out onto the Arch and Green.
The Boardroom is a unique feature to the suite as it can be directly accessed through a private corridor, lift and entrance, and can be easily interconnected with any other rooms. On the opposite side a private office and additional meeting room have been created, which can be linked to the Boardroom, hence creating a fully equipped boutique office within the InterContinental London Park Lane.
The suite's location inspired designers RPW in the scheme. Great attention was given to the selection of naturally luxurious materials, such as soft leathers, stone and walnut timbers as a basis for the colour schemes, resulting in a classic, natural and relaxing environment suggestive of Hyde Park itself. Design touches contain homages to the park such as bespoke bronze handles evocative of tree branches for the cabinetry. Artwork and accessories draw on Hyde Park's equine traditions and the historic location of the hotel. Bespoke stitching details of the Plane, the tree that populates and represents London's Royal Parks, are incorporated into the headboard design in the bedroom. The green landscape of the park inspired textures, patterns and themes within the carpet designs and artworks, such as the bespoke carpet design.
In the master bedroom design touches include decorative bronze panels, which frame the bed by resembling windows with climbing foliage and songbirds. RPW Design worked alongside world renowned Art Consultant Peter Millard to resource bespoke artworks that function as intriguing windows into an artistic interpretation of the theme. An example is the resin sculpture on the bathroom mirror that evokes the Serpentine through the exploration of form, movement and materials.
