London’s most spectacular, new luxury hotel The Peninsula London was the setting for a magical Grand Opening Celebration on Tuesday, 18 June. Their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh joined luminaries from the fields of art, film and entertainment including Sophie Turner, Sabrina Elba, Billie Piper, Lady Helen Taylor, Pixie Geldof and many more. Over 2,500 guests from across the globe took over the hotel for an unforgettable night of entertainment and exceptional hospitality, accompanied by energetic Chinese Lion Dancing, music from the London Philharmonic Orchestra, a roster of nine live bands and renowned DJs, and a courtyard filled with gourmet food trucks and priceless vintage cars.
Their Royal Highnesses The Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh honoured the occasion by unveiling a commemorative plaque, marking the culmination of this momentous project, which has been nearly 40 years in the making.

Its rooftop restaurant, Brooklands by Claude Bosi, achieved the distinguished honour of gaining two Michelin stars within just four months of opening, further establishing The Peninsula London as a beacon of luxury and sophistication.
