Positioned on Old Park Lane where Mayfair dissolves into the green edge of Hyde Park, the building that houses COMO Metropolitan London was originally designed by Michael Squire Associates in the 1960s as a modernist slab — its limestone-clad facade and continuous horizontal glazing maintaining a cool, rational presence against the park's Victorian exuberance. When COMO Hotels acquired and refurbished the property, the 144-room hotel retained that understated exterior geometry while threading a warmer residential sensibility through its interiors. The rooms, visible in the images, translate that restraint into something genuinely liveable: walnut joinery runs as a continuous band from bedframe through integrated bedside tables to the desk, the whole composition grounded in pale carpet and lifted by chartreuse yellow headboard panels — a colour accent that recurs in the lounge chairs angled toward floor-to-ceiling park views. The dining room takes a different approach, its white-clothed tables arranged beneath a steel-framed lantern roof that floods the space with daylight, ebonised timber chairs and large-format black-and-white photography holding the room in sharp graphic contrast to the brightness above. Most unexpectedly, a walled garden at the rear — enclosed by Victorian London brick and planted with Japanese maples, hydrangeas, and climbing greenery — furnishes the hotel with something few Mayfair addresses can claim: genuine outdoor calm, its powder-coated wire chairs and sage-green café tables carrying more of a private garden than a hotel terrace.
