A Grade I-listed 1924 Edwin Lutyens landmark featuring ninety-two restored green verdite marble columns.
Vintage walnut furnishings, bespoke drinks cabinets, hand-knotted rugs, and Cowshed bath amenities in every room.
In the City of London by Bank Junction, steps from Bank station and the Square Mile.
Rooms
Deco-era walnut furniture and mirrored drinks cabinets evoke 1930s transatlantic liners, paired with patterned wallpapers and brass bathroom fittings.
Wellness
Downstairs, a twenty-meter mosaic indoor pool and marble Moroccan hammam offer respite, while heated open-air waters wait upstairs on the roof.
Backstory
Built in 1924 as the Midland Bank headquarters, the landmark takes its name from original architect Sir Edwin "Ned" Lutyens.
Eat & drink
Graze across Cecconi's and British grill classics on the main floor before sipping martinis in a vault lined with safe deposit boxes.
The neighborhood
Positioned directly above Bank Junction, the hotel commands the historic heart of the City, with St Paul's Cathedral a short stroll west.
“Formerly the headquarters of the venerable Midland bank, and more recently HSBC, the landmark building at No. 27 Poultry never lacked for atmosphere.”
