London, UK – Brown’s Hotel, a Rocco Forte property located in the heart of Mayfair, has unveiled its newest luxury offering: the Forte Suites.

This elegant suite collection represents a unique fusion of history, design, and cultural storytelling, making it an unmissable retreat for travellers with a love for music, theatre, and British heritage.

A Symphony of Design: The Forte Suites

As part of a broader design refresh, the newly launched Clementi Suite, Clara Dow Suite, and Nightingale Suite are a collaboration between world-renowned designers Paolo Moschino, Philip Vergeylen, and Olga Polizzi, Director of Design at Rocco Forte Hotels.

Each suite blends historic inspiration with contemporary luxury, bringing Mayfair’s musical and cultural past to life with bespoke interiors, artisanal details, and narrative-driven design.

The Clementi Suite: A Classical Retreat

Inspired by 18th-century composer Muzio Clementi, the Clementi Suite is defined by serenity and elegance. With Farrow & Ball’s Calke Green, classical drapery, and concealed doors inspired by Sir John Soane, it creates a peaceful atmosphere where antique elegance meets modern art. A haven for classical music enthusiasts, the suite captures the refined soul of Mayfair’s golden age.

The Clara Dow Suite: Edwardian Glamour Reimagined

Paying homage to Edwardian opera star Clara Dow, this suite channels theatrical drama and artistic opulence.

Perfect for opera lovers and culture seekers, it offers an immersive, expressive escape.

The Nightingale Suite: A Wartime Serenade
