Rooms
Compact layouts pair dark timber headboards and bespoke Dickensian wallpapers with rainfall showers and Roberts radios for an efficient urban stay.
Backstory
Opened in 2014, the Grade II-listed concrete building once operated as London's first automatic telephone switching exchange before its mid-century transformation.
Eat & drink
At Rondo, seasonal British bistro fare pairs with wine on tap, while the lobby bar pours specialty espresso and evening cocktails.
The neighborhood
Positioned directly on High Holborn, the hotel sits two minutes from the tube, placing Covent Garden and the British Museum within easy walking distance.
“The look, as in all the Hoxton hotels, is eclectic and a bit rough-edged, with industrial patina and late-modernist retro colliding in inspiring ways.”
“Inside, it’s trendy and relaxed, with lots of concrete, wood, chocolate leather, and sixties-style furniture—just the sort of place you want to collapse with a cold beer after a long flight.”
