In Knightsbridge, Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park unveils one of London’s most elegant festive transformations with The Jewel of the Season, a luminous collaboration with De Beers London. The hotel’s grand lobby becomes the Enchanted Lotus Bar, a sculptural jewel-box space inspired by the lotus motif of De Beers’ iconic Enchanted Lotus Collection. Under soft, gem-like lighting, guests enjoy a refined menu of rare champagnes — Ruinart, Krug, Dom Pérignon — served with King’s Caviar for the most polished kind of holiday indulgence.
The collaboration extends to De Beers’ Bond Street boutique, where private appointments reveal the House’s craftsmanship through rare stones, heritage stories and behind-the-scenes artistry. At The Rosebery, the De Beers Festive Afternoon Tea blends Anglo-Asian influences and Southern African flavors, with delicate sweets echoing diamond cuts; meanwhile, at Mandarin Bar, the signature cocktail The Enchanted Lotus distills winter’s brilliance into a single glass.
