Extensive refurbishment of St Pancras Chambers featuring a brand new wing
A total of 244 guestrooms will be created to form a 5-star Marriott Renaissance Hotel, together with 68 residential apartments, including a luxury penthouse.
The main entrance to the hotel is now via the western arch into the old taxi road which has being converted into a grand reception space. The private apartments will have a separate designated entrance from the forecourt.
The major public rooms within the Chambers have been adapted for use as restaurants, bars and hotel suites, with a number of them restored to their original decorative schemes. The Grand Staircase has been restored to its former glory to become the central focus of the hotel.
