45 PARK LANE, LONDON 45 Park Lane’s building dates back to the early 1960s and was designed by Walter Gropius, founder of the Bauhaus school and a pioneer of modernist architecture who also designed the iconic MetLife Building in New York. The hotel opened as part of Dorchester Collection in September 2011 and has firmly established itself as a leader on London’s contemporary hotel scene. Renowned for its art, and as the home of the Negroni in London, it became home to Wolfgang Puck’s first European venture – CUT at 45 Park Lane. Art features strongly throughout: 16 of Damien Hirst’s limited edition ‘Psalms’ series are displayed together for the first time in the restaurant, and original art by ten leading, living British artists is displayed - one artist on each floor - in every guest room and suite. It is therefore no surprise that the hotel has already attracted a plethora of established names from the worlds of fashion, film, art and design, with CUT at 45 Park Lane and BAR 45 having played host to many a star-studded London Fashion Week party.
