About the project

Waldorf Astoria London Admiralty Arch marks the conversion of one of London's most prominent civic landmarks into a luxury hotel. Designed in 1912 by Sir Aston Webb and built as a memorial to Queen Victoria, Admiralty Arch sits at the head of The Mall connecting Trafalgar Square to Buckingham Palace. The Grade I-listed landmark was originally taken on a 250-year lease by Spanish developer Prime Investors Capital and is now owned by Reuben Brothers, which acquired it in 2022 and accelerated the restoration with Hilton's Waldorf Astoria Hotels & Resorts as operator. The 200,000-square-foot property holds 114 rooms, suites and residences, restaurants from three-Michelin-starred chefs Clare Smyth and Daniel Boulud, a Guerlain Spa and a members' club. Architectural restoration is by Blair Associates Architecture, with interiors by Pierre-Yves Rochon.
