The Twenty Two, a new hotel with an all-day public restaurant and a private members’ club, will open at number 22 Grosvenor Square in Spring 2022.
This striking Edwardian Manor house is being redesigned into a Westside hideaway for creative cohorts, local residents and international guests in London.
Upon completion, the 42,500 square foot property will house 31 bedrooms and suites, including a mews house as well as an all-day restaurant and private members’ club.
The property’s interior design is being led by award-winning designer, Natalia Miyar and her practice, based between London and Miami. Miyar is working closely with proprietor and creative lead Navid Mirtorabi. The Twenty Two is Miyar’s first hotel project, with each room and public space being expertly decorated in an opulent yet welcoming style.
The design concept boasts rich textured fabrics, elegantly embroidered silks, lavish velvets and bespoke wallpapers – a modern interpretation of classic maximalism. It pays homage to the grandeur and legacy of the building, with original architectural features, including double height ceilings, restored within some of the guest bedrooms and suites. The bedrooms will feature bespoke amenities, and 24-hour room service will be available alongside the hotel mini bars.
The F&B offering across the property will feature the highest quality seasonal produce, whilst focusing on local suppliers and mindful practices. With the kitchen overseen by Executive Chef Alan Christie, the all-day public restaurant will serve modern-British menus with influence from southern Europe.
Members of The Twenty Two, and in-house hotel guests, are invited to use the club as a place to collaborate and unwind, with exclusive access to an all-day lounge space with a bar and open outdoor terrace that overlooks Grosvenor Square, an evening dining room with a covered outdoor terrace, as well as a cocktail bar.
This visionary project is the realisation of hospitality entrepreneur, hotelier and tech investor, Navid Mirtorabi, whose current portfolio includes Humble (Founder), Lunaz Design – Classic Electrical Cars (Co-Founder), Little Emperors (Investor), as well as various other hospitality projects.
“We want to redefine the traditional Mayfair hotel and club by bringing a new community to this iconic part of the city,” Navid comments. “To create a space where people can come together and feel welcome, regardless of where they come from, what their profession is and what they choose to wear. London is a melting pot of creative people from all cultural backgrounds and we want to celebrate that at The Twenty Two.”
The property will be overseen by Managing Director Darius Namdar, formerly of Corbin & King, Chiltern Firehouse and Mark’s Club.
“Our vision is to instil a more playful side to Mayfair,” says Darius. “We want everyone who passes through The Twenty Two to experience exceptional service, be greeted with a smile and, most importantly, feel welcome and accepted, whist enjoying the best hospitality London has to offer.”
