Ει βούλει καλώς ακούειν, μάθε καλώς λέγειν, μαθών δε καλώς λέγειν, πειρώ καλώς πράττειν, και ούτω καρπώση το καλώς ακούειν. (Επίκτητος)

Shangri-La Hotel, At The Shard, London Unveils Signature Suites and Launches Cultural Salon


Shangri-La Hotel, At The Shard, London will unveil its Signature Suites, the three final and most spectacular suites, on May 6, 2015.

The Signature Suites will include one of the largest and most extraordinary hotel suites in London, the Shangri-La Suite.  At 188 square meters (about 2,023 square feet) and residing on Level 39 of Renzo Piano’s iconic skyscraper, The Shard, guests experiencing this one-bedroom jewel in the Shangri-La crown will enjoy access via a private lift, 24-hour personal butler service, private chauffeur service, sumptuous living areas with entirely custom-designed furniture and 180-degree views of London’s iconic landmarks from one of the capital’s most rare addresses.

The prestigious Shangri-La Suite, designed by Francesca Muzio and Maria Silvia Orlandini, co-founders of lauded Italian design atelier FM – Architettura d’Interni Studio features exquisite custom-made furniture and high-grade silk wallpaper in a refined palette of champagne, citrine and bronze, designed and produced by Muzio, Orlandini and a team of over 250 highly skilled craftsmen from around the world.  It also boasts the specially designed Shangri-La Bed featuring patented body-contouring technology and fitted with Frette 1,000-threadcount linen; a grand marble-clad bathroom with integrated television and mirror screens, an expansive walk-in dressing chamber, fine crystal glassware and a well-equipped private pantry, allowing for Shangri-La’s Dine by Design dining experience.  The suite may also be connected to an adjacent room, enabling its conversion into a two-bedroom suite with a total living space of 232 square meters (about 2,497 square feet).

Two further sumptuous Signature Suites, also designed by FM – Architettura d’Interni Studio and also presenting sophisticated custom furniture, carpets and silks, the London Suite and the Westminster Suite are situated on levels 37 and 38, respectively.  All three Signature Suites each enjoys its own unique layout, although all combine the formal elegance of Shangri-La’s Asian heritage with the innovation of The Shard’s architecture through a richness of precious details and an expanse of natural light.
