The Peninsula

The Peninsula London, the city’s first hotel development to exceed £1 billion in cost, is situated at the heart of the capital, overlooking Hyde Park and Wellington Arch. Now open after a thirty-five year search by Sir Michael Kadoorie, Chairman of The Hongkong and Shanghai Hotels, owner of The Peninsula Hotels group, the property offers a unique East-meets-West dialogue, a fleet of signature green Rolls-Royces, London’s largest suite, and a rooftop restaurant and bar with sweeping panoramic views unlike any the city has ever seen. Photographer Oliver Pilcher captures it all for us, revealing why this is one of the globe’s most anticipated hotel openings of the past decade.

About Assouline: Founded in Paris in 1994 by Prosper and Martine Assouline, Assouline is the first luxury brand on culture. It began with the desire to create a new, contemporary style of book, using the couple's experienced eye for visually rich stories and compelling narratives. Guided by their passion for knowledge, culture and travel, the Assoulines have since expanded their vision to 1,700 titles in three main collections, along with special editions and unique library accessories—a grand oeuvre of inspiring creations. Throughout the last quarter of a century, the brand has established a network of international boutiques in prominent locations across the globe. Assouline has also inaugurated a curated library service, working closely with clients to visualize, design, and develop bespoke, one-of-a-kind libraries.
