Hilton London Bankside, owned by Splendid Hospitality Group, has unveiled an expansion featuring 76 newly designed rooms and suites, taking the total number to 368.
The development introduces 12 new room categories, including upgraded suite experiences with elevated design concepts.
To realise the project’s creative vision, Hilton London Bankside has partnered with interior design agency SpaceInvader. The new rooms draw inspiration from the expressive character of the hotel’s Bankside location, incorporating rich pops of colour, bold patterns, and elevated fringing and piping details as a nod to the theatrical culture of the area.
Reflecting creativity, culture and connectivity, guestrooms feature custom designed aspects throughout, from fluid sculptural headboards to angular full-length mirrors, echoing the area’s architectural diversity.
Studio Graphite acted as the Art Consultant for the project, paying homage to the nearby Tate Modern and local celebrated graffiti culture. Strategically placed pieces and thoughtfully designed lighting accentuate and draw focus to the art, lending each room a gallery-esque feel.
The newly built ninth floor offers sweeping views across Bankside and the surrounding London skyline through floor-to-ceiling windows. The King One Bedroom City View Suite and the King One Bedroom Landmark View Suite feature kitchenettes, refined dining areas and walk-in showers with jets for added comfort, while the King Premier One Bedroom Suite features a marble dining table, a spacious lounge with a plush textured sofa, contemporary artwork and warm wood panelling for a calm, residential feel.
The City View Suite also features a sensor-lit walk-in wardrobe, while the Landmark View Suite offers a private mini gym and wellness zone with personalised lighting, sound and scent programmes. A tailored in-room fitness menu allows guests to request additional equipment.
Catering to wellness-minded travellers, the new Premium Peloton Room features a dedicated fitness alcove, flooded with natural light, complete with a personal Peloton Bike, for guests to maintain their fitness routines.
Sustainable choices have also been incorporated in the new rooms, such as the use of eco-friendly materials including Silestone tabletops made with a minimum of 20% recycled materials and manufactured using 100% certified renewable energy and 99% recycled water. Additionally, carpets are cradle to cradle bronze certified, whilst mural wallpaper utilises BIOVYNTM, produced from 100% bio-sourced ethylene.
“The addition of 76 new rooms and suites at Hilton London Bankside further reinforces Splendid Hospitality Group’s position as a significant and growing force within the London hotel market,” comments Andrew Kendrick, Managing Director – Hotels at Splendid Hospitality Group. “Hilton London Bankside is a powerful example of how Splendid offers strong operational leadership to create exceptional hotel experiences for guests, while continuing to grow our footprint in the capital.”
Nadeem Boghani, Executive Chairman of Splendid Hospitality Group, added: “We are extremely proud of the continued investment in and development of Hilton London Bankside. This extension demonstrates Splendid’s long-term commitment to London and the wider UK hospitality sector, driving meaningful job creation while further strengthening Hilton London Bankside’s position in the UK.
