the hotels suites have a view over Hyde Park and the bedrooms open
up into magnificent salons. Suites can be either 1, 2 or 3 bedrooms.

Malone bathroom products, 2 telephone lines with speaker phones
and voice mail, individual air conditioning climate control, remote
control colour cable TV, computer modem-jack, mini bar with refrigerator,
CD & VCR player, multi channel radio, in-room fax and safe deposit

The hotels rooms have views over Knightsbridge or the quieter
inner court. They are decorated in a classical English style with
mahogany furniture, elegant but all of the creature comforts are
there including crystal glasses, to go with the minibar selection.
Individual air conditioning climate control is also provided plus
a working desk, voice mail, multiple line telephone, speaker phone,
voice mail, heating, remote colour cable TV, high speed internet
access, mini bar with refrigerator, CD & VCR player, Multi channel
radio and also a safe deposit box.
The beds are enormous and firm but surprisingly comfortable with
linen sheets, down pillows and duvet, genuinely luxurious.
Each floor has its own Guest Manager to provide attentive, discreet
unobtrusive service. Elsewhere in the hotel there are very charming
hostess staff to give you all the attention you want.
All the bathrooms have all been upgraded. These are generous
all marble affairs built at a time when hotels were still generous
with space. The Bathrooms are equipped with a vast deep bath, heated
towel racks plus a separate glass-walled power shower. There are
some nice touches such as toiletries by Jo Malone in all suites.
The park side rooms are obviously the most popular though
they come at a premium. There are also 23 palatial suites (the Imperial
Suite in particular) fit for Arab Princes or pop stars.
The Oriental touch extends to the turn down goodies -a demitasse
of panna-cotta or miniature creme brulee's for those after dinner
bedtime snacks. Of course the daily replenished fruit basket is
an added healthy aspect of your stay with Orchids to add the final
oriental touch to the rooms.
