Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group (MOHG) is set to open its third London hotel and spa in the British capital in 2028.

Situated on London's South Bank with dramatic views over St Paul’s Cathedral, Mandarin Oriental Bankside, London will be part of the larger Bankside Yards development, which is planned to be the UK's first operationally fossil fuel-free major mixed-use development.

The overall property is being developed by an international real estate consortium including Hotel Properties Limited, Native Land Limited and Amcorp Properties Berhad.

The development will comprise a contemporary standalone building, expected to have 171 guestrooms and 70 branded residences.

The hotel will offer wellness and fitness facilities tailored for those leading active lifestyles. Within a dedicated space, guests will find a comprehensive spa providing signature wellness therapies and beauty treatments, a lap pool, a spacious fitness centre and thermal and hydrotherapy experiences.

A range of event spaces and four distinct culinary outlets will complete the offering.

"We’re excited to announce the development of Mandarin Oriental Bankside, London, which will be a significant addition to the Bankside Yards development and our third property in London," said James Riley, MOHG group chief executive.

The brand’s London flagship – Mandarin Oriental, Hyde Park – is one of the most well-regarded hotels in the capital. Back in 2022, MOHG announced plans to create it's second London destination in Mayfair (opening Q3/4 2023).

Riley added: "We look forward to working with our partners to create a world-class hotel and branded residences that will undoubtedly become a landmark destination in London's South Bank."
