Purcell was appointed Architect and Lead Design Consultant for the major renovation and refurbishment of the internationally-renowned luxury hotel, Mandarin Oriental at Hyde Park, London.

 

As Architect and Lead Consultant, Purcell oversaw the ambitious renovation of the entire Mandarin Oriental Hotel whilst it continued operations. This included the refurbishment of all 181 guestrooms, the Spa and the hotel’s function rooms, bar and two restaurants. The roof-top plant work was renewed and relocated, two new-build Presidential suites built on the ninth-floor roof, and all services throughout the hotel were updated. The historic external facades were carefully repaired, rejuvenated and all the windows replaced in conjunction with enhanced solar, thermal and acoustic performances.
