Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park, London
66 Knightsbridge, Hyde Park, London
From the moment you arrive at the Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park and catch a glimpse of the Doormen in their smart red attire, you know your family is going to be extremely well looked after in this most luxurious child friendly hotel. Centrally located on the edge of Hyde Park, within a short walk from the fabulous shops in Knightsbridge (Harrods, Harvey Nichols), the museums in nearby Kensington (great for family days out) and not forgetting of course nearby Buckingham Palace - this hotel really has the best of both worlds. You have the hustle and bustle of city life contrasting with the glorious Hyde Park where the kids can run for miles, spot the resident squirrels, have a paddle in Diana's fountain memorial and go for a dip in the open air Lido. There is a children's playground located in the park, right next to the rear of the hotel and you can also hire a boat on the boating lake.
When booking the Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park please inform them of children's ages in the party so they can plan in advance and will provide special amenities for your little ones including mini bathrobes, baby-cots and fold-out beds, books, crayons and other items to keep children entertained and cookies or popcorn are available on request. An original ‘MoMo in London' story book is also available which, very aptly, is an entertaining tale of MoMo the Monkey's adventures around Hyde Park.
The hotel rooms and luxury suites are opulent and the views of the Royal Park are stunning. Each room has been designed to be slightly different from the next, furnished with beautiful antiques and luxurious fabrics. There are inter- connecting rooms available at Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park. Please ask about availability when booking your room.

With one of the finest Royal Parks on one side of the hotel both the informal, all day dining at The Park and award-wining Foliage restaurants offer guests beautiful leafy views.

A wide range of cocktails are served in the extremely fashionable Mandarin Bar. Sip on one of your favourites while listening to live jazz music until 2am.
