Hyde and Seek London Hyde Park, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel, has appointed Paul Davies as general manager ahead of its opening in September 2026.
Davies joins the 309-room hotel to oversee its pre-opening phase, launch strategy, and subsequent day-to-day operations. Owned by Immersive Hospitality Management (IHM), the Lancaster Gate property is currently undergoing a £42m conversion from the former Corus Hotel Hyde Park into an upscale lifestyle destination under Marriott Bonvoy’s Tribute Portfolio brand.
Davies has more than 38 years of hospitality experience and has managed more than 15 hotels across the UK and Ireland. He most recently served as cluster general manager for Marriott International, where he was responsible for eight properties across South West England and Wales generating combined annual revenues of more than £80m.
The hotel site will feature two distinct food and beverage concepts, flexible meeting spaces, a fitness studio and guest rooms influenced by the local Bayswater neighbourhood.
Paul Davies, general manager, said: “I’m delighted to be joining Hyde and Seek, London Hyde Park, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel and leading the hotel through its opening and beyond. The property has a distinctive identity, combining a bohemian spirit with a genuine sense of place, curiosity and connection.
“We want every guest to feel part of something special from the moment they arrive, creating experiences that feel less like a hotel stay and more like becoming part of a living story. I look forward to establishing Hyde & Seek as one of London’s most inviting new hideaways for both visitors and Londoners alike.”

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout.
