A defining feature of the development is the decision to prioritise adaptive reuse. The project retained more than 80% of the existing structure, with an estimated saving of approximately 4,200 tonnes of carbon when compared to demolition and a full rebuild. This approach is reflected in an interior language that emphasises material provenance, durability and craft, rather than high-turnover finishes.
On Berkeley Street, facing London’s Green Park, 1 Hotel Mayfair positions itself as a nature-led luxury property where environmental performance is embedded into its architectural decisions and interior design.
As the brand’s first European property and UK flagship, it extends 1 Hotels’ wider proposition — linking high-end hospitality with measurable sustainability priorities — into a city context.
