Dorchester Hotel
Park Lane, London, W1A 2HJ

Architect: William Curtis Green, 1930-31

A substantial part of the design of this building was carried out by Sir Owen Williams in a much more radical style than was finally built.

The reinforced concrete building is faced in concrete with polished crushed granite. Curtis Green also designed some of the bedrooms.

Some public areas may be accessible.
