The Chancery Rosewood
London, United Kingdom · Rosewood · Apex Luxury
The Chancery Rosewood occupies Eero Saarinen's 1960 U.S. Embassy on Grosvenor Square, a Mayfair building so future-facing in its day that it still wears a gilded aluminum eagle, eleven meters wingtip to wingtip, on the roofline. David Chipperfield led the restoration into an all-suite hotel in 2025, keeping the diagrid facade and the eagle exactly where sculptor Theodore Roszak first placed it, while four guest suites carry names, Saarinen House, John Adams House, Kennedy House, and Chancery House, that trace the building's diplomatic past.
- 144 rooms
- Opened 2025
- Neighborhood: Mayfair
- Architect: Eero Saarinen & David Chipperfield Architects
- Interiors: Joseph Dirand
About The Chancery Rosewood
- More than seven hundred works of contemporary art fill the hotel, part of a program curated by Cramer & Bell with new commissions from Sir Christopher Le Brun.
- Joseph Dirand designed the interiors inside a building Saarinen originally built with over 600 rooms across nine floors, three of them below street level.
- It's set to be the first five-star hotel in the UK to earn a BREEAM Outstanding sustainability rating.
History
Eero Saarinen also designed the Gateway Arch in St. Louis and the U.S. Air Force Academy Chapel in Colorado Springs, two of the other defining American landmarks of his career.
The setting
The Chancery Rosewood puts guests in Holborn, London. This is Holborn and the legal quarter: Inns of Court lanes and a different London from Mayfair's squares.
