London’s luxury hotel The Lanesborough closes its doors

Earlier this month, London’s luxury fivestar hotel, The Lanesborough, announced it will be closing in December for a renovation, and with it, Heinz Beck’s Michelin starred restaurant, Apsleys.

To mark the end of what has been an illustrious era for the celebrated Hyde Park hotel, Michelin starred chef Heinz Beck has shared a recipe for one of his signature dishes which features on the menu at Apsleys, Fagottelli Carbonara, featured below.

Heinz opened Apsleys – a Heinz Beck Restaurantat The Lanesborough in September 2009. Just five months later it was awarded its first Michelin star.

While the recipe below should appease any Apsleys withdrawal symptoms for those who frequent the restaurant throughout The Lanesborough’s closure, guests can rest assured that the hotel’s renovation has a short turnover of just a year (think back for a moment to the Rijksmuseum’s 10-year refurbishment) and will see the hotel’s 93 rooms, restaurant Apsleys and all of its additional public areas reopening their doors at the end of 2014.

The new interior is one of the late Alberto Pinto’s last projects, who, after finishing the plans for The Lanesborough last year, sadly passed away. Renowned Paris-based designer Alberto set the standard for ‘Haute Interior Design’, and his signature ‘savoir faire’ has become synonymous with some of the world’s most spectacular interiors, including the Oceanco’s Yacht Y708and the Seaside Hotel Palm Beach, in Maspalomas. Fans of Alberto’s work will see his legacy live on at the newly renovated Hyde Park hotel which is slated to reopen its doors to the public later in 2014. The renovations will also pay homage to the building’s architectural heritage as one of London’s most revered Regency landmarks.

While Geoffrey Gelardi, Managing Director of The Lanesborough says he, and the team at The Lanesborough, ‘look forward to unveiling a new era for The Lanesborough,” those wanting to hold on to a piece of its past, The Lanesborough will be auctioning all its existing furnishings and artefacts between the 9 and 13December 2013 at the hotel.
