The hotel comprises of 262 guestrooms and 44 suites, a spa, fitness suite and eleven events spaces including the Grand Ballroom, three heritage boardrooms, the Living Room and the 20-seat private dining room with show kitchen. The hotel also offers several dining areas include the Mirror Room, bar, lobby lounge, Holborn Delicatessen and the Holborn Dining Room, which leads to the Terrace in the hotel’s inner courtyard.
The original architectural features of the hotel have been restored, including the Grade II listed frontage and dome, the grand Pavonazzo marble staircase, which rises through all seven storeys of the hotel.
The project was carried out in sectional phases to enable the continuing operation of the hotel.
