Hotel details

Just a short stroll will take you to the West End and Covent Garden with its bars, restaurants and shopping.

Food & Beverages

The modern and cosmopolitan lobby lounge, MAUVE, is made popular by its afternoon teas and specifically the Afternoon Beats event, which offers a live DJ, every Friday and Saturday, from 16:00 to 19:00. Temple Bar is a traditional venue to enjoy a business discussion or casual conversation, complemented by a glass of aged whisky. Enjoy the grandeur and splendour of the past.

Live music is played on Tuesdays and Wednesdays to create the ambience befitting the bar.
