The Mandrake *****
Londres •
A five-star hotel where a blur and warm, spiced scent hits on arrival and dreamlike sets, ritual elements, and confrontational art create a stage poised somewhere between a mystical sanctuary and a waking fantasy.
- An omnipresent art collection, spanning organic installations, unfiltered contemporary pieces and works by Dalí, Warhol and Hooper, set against a backdrop of velvet and saturated colours that grip your attention.
- A spa that works deep on the body, built around an Origin Pool designed for a complete sensory reset with light and vibrations, extended by rituals using muds, algae and high-spec dermatological treatments.
- Bars and a restaurant that lean fully into the set design, from ethnobotanical cocktails at Waeska and Jurema beneath a suspended canopy of jasmine and passionflower, to a South American table set within a jungle courtyard by Bas Smets.
