Millcroft has been awarded a significant scaffolding and construction contract at the renowned Mandarin Oriental Hotel Hyde Park in London.

The work, secured through a competitive tender process, will be delivered as a turnkey solution, combining the company’s scaffolding and construction expertise.

The project forms part of the hotel’s scheduled five-year maintenance programme and involves the full refurbishment of four external fire escape staircases. Millcroft will work closely with the hotel’s management to ensure that safety standards are upheld while minimising disruption to guests and staff.

The work is set to be carried out in phases to allow the hotel to remain fully operational throughout the project. Scaffolding will be erected systematically around each staircase, providing safe access for construction teams to complete the necessary work.

Existing paint will be stripped away before applying three protective layers of two-pack epoxy paint. Any required repairs to the staircases will also be completed as part of the maintenance effort.

Additionally, the hotel’s existing bird netting will be temporarily removed and reinstalled upon the completion of each staircase. Millcroft has emphasised that the phased approach is a key element of the project, designed to limit the impact on the hotel’s day-to-day operations.

Only rooms adjacent to each staircase will be taken out of service temporarily while work is underway.

Dominic Philip, Operations Manager at Millcroft Construction, highlighted the company’s experience with similar high-profile projects, including the repair and restoration of the Landmark London hotel in Marylebone.

He said: “Our construction and scaffolding divisions have worked together on prestigious projects like this before, so we understand the complexities involved in operating within a live, luxury hotel environment. By combining our expertise, we are able to deliver a turnkey solution that ensures efficiency, quality, and minimal disruption.”

The Mandarin Oriental Hotel Hyde Park is one of London’s most iconic luxury hotels, making the maintenance work a high-profile project for Millcroft. The contract further reinforces the company’s position as a trusted provider of integrated scaffolding and construction services within the hospitality sector.
