What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Also in Condé Nast Traveler and Wallpaper*.
The house style — a post-industrial salvage aesthetic, warmed by organic materials and eclectic décor — is a natural fit for the formerly industrial neighborhood.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Positioned on Blackfriars Road, the hotel puts Tate Modern, the South Bank arts complex, and Borough Market within easy walking distance.
The rooms
Warehouse-style Crittall windows flood rooms with natural light, complementing ruby velvet headboards, concrete ceilings, and handmade mattresses.
Dogs stay too.
Restaurant
Albie
The ground-floor brasserie serves Riviera-inspired dishes and biodynamic wines under globe chandeliers and exposed brick.
The 14-storey, 192-room Hoxton Southwark sports an industrial aesthetic forged through bare brick walls, concrete ceilings and large black Crittall-style windows.
At the table
The mezzanine bar pours cocktails alongside brass shelving and plush velvet armchairs set against grid windows.
How it began

The purpose-built brick tower takes inspiration from Southwark's nineteenth-century industrial past as a bustling hub for hop trading and tanneries.
