Owned and operated by the renowned Maybourne Hotel Group (responsible for the iconic Claridge’s, among others), The Emory marks a significant milestone, not only for its unique concept but also as the fourth hotel project brought to life by architectural firm RHSP in the city.

The mastermind behind the hotel’s striking design was the late Richard Rogers, a legend in the modernist architecture world.  Working alongside Ivan Harbour, Rogers crafted The Emory with his signature style in mind. Picture floor-to-ceiling windows flooding every suite with natural light, creating a sense of spacious serenity within the heart of bustling London.

 

Taking the concept of a luxury suite experience to a whole new level, The Emory boasts 61 exquisitely designed suites spread across nine floors. Here’s where things get truly exciting – Maybourne took an unconventional approach, enlisting a quartet of renowned interior designers to create distinct personalities for each suite across two floors.

Art and luxury

Visionaries such as Alexandra Champalimaud, Andre Fu, Pierre-Yves Rochon, and Patricia Urquiola have each brought their unique flair to life, from bespoke furniture pieces to thoughtfully curated original art.

 

Step beyond the suite doors to discover a culinary haven designed by French interior maestro Rémi Tessier. The Emory’s restaurant exudes warmth, with a color palette of wood tones and inviting shades of orange.

Art lovers will be enthralled by a series of Damien Hirst’s “The Secret Gardens Paintings” adorning the walls.  For a more social atmosphere, head to the bar, featuring floor-to-ceiling glass doors that seamlessly blend the space with a charming courtyard.  And for those seeking an exclusive experience, a rooftop bar and cigar bar await, accessible only to guests of The Emory.

 

The Emory is now officially open for business, welcoming discerning travelers seeking an unparalleled suite experience in the heart of London.

The architecture

Owned by the prestigious Maybourne Hotel Group, The Emory boasts 61 light-filled suites designed by the renowned architectural firm RHSP. Each suite is a unique masterpiece thanks to the vision of four celebrated interior designers.
