CourtHouse Hotel Description:
Courthouse Hotel, Leisure, at Her Majesty’s pleasure. The
Courthouse Hotel is the ultimate hip yet historic hotel in the heart of
London. Located amidst the capital’s bustling shopping district – a
stone’s throw away from Liberty’s and the internationally renowned areas
of Bond Street, Regent Street and Carnaby Street - the Courthouse Hotel
offers a luxurious haven for those wishing to enjoy the best that the
capital has to offer. Situated in an historic courthouse, the Grade II
listed building retains much of its original splendour, including a
number of quirky features. The Great Malborough Street Magistrate’s
Court has played host to many famous cases over the years, guilty or not
guilty Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Oscar Wilde have all passed
through the Courthouse’s doors.
Many remnants of this time have been incorporated into the building’s
current scheme. Original Robert Adams fireplaces adorn several of the
suites, and The Bar’s private tables are actually inside three of the
original prison cells. Silk, the hotel’s fine dining restaurant, set to
open 1st December is the old Number One court where the Judges bench,
witness stand and dock take centre stage. Elsewhere in the hotel,
glimpses of former use can be seen – such as the iron bars that separate
the lobby from The Bar.
The Courthouse Hotel, and its sister hotel The Bentley, are represented
by Kempinski Hotels & Resorts, Europe’s oldest and most established
luxury hotel management group.
Restaurant & Bar:
There are three dining
areas; ‘Carnaby’s’ with separate street entrance, offers all day dining
with a lively, buzzy atmosphere. ‘Silk’ is located within the infamous
No. 1 Courtroom where the great and not so good have pleaded their cases
in previous years. This is fine dining at its most special with cuisine
following the ancient Silk Route, flavoured by radical inspiration from
Europe by head chef, Elisha Carter, formally of Lola’s in Islington. The
‘Waiting Room’ is transformed into an elegant palm-filled atrium in
which to relax and enjoy breakfast, light meals and afternoon tea.
‘The Bar’s’ clubby atmosphere is emphasized by low seating, a
wall-length glass bar and a monochrome design scheme of black and white
leather. The three former Ladies Cells are retained, though upgraded, to
offer intimate, private booths, complete with bunk bed and ice-bucket
charmingly fashioned from the original Victorian lavatory!
The ‘Roof Terrace’ is the ultimate retreat and an exclusive rendez-vous,
from where to enjoy light meals and exquisite cocktails, overlooking
Liberty’s.
Breakfast is available at the restaurant at prices from £ 14.95.
Bedrooms:
Courthouse Hotel Kempinski has
116 rooms and suites. The 13 suites are located in the former judges’
robing rooms and the spectacular Lalique Suite is sited within the
former London residence to the Metropolitan Police Commissioner. The 103
rooms are housed in a brand new wing built on the site of a former
police station, holding cells and a shooting range.
Health Club:
The Spa, which will open
on April 4, 2005, has a fully equipped gymnasium, separated from the
stunning wet areas by a glass wall. The wet areas comprise a hot tub and
a large square swimming pool. There are two aluminium treatment rooms
with glass floors, one of which is suspended over the pool (though
swimmers please note, you cannot peep inside!).
Groups & Meetings:
The CourtHouse hotel has
seven meeting rooms, catering for a maximum of 130 people (theatre
style) in the largest room. Release, the hotel’s extravagant private
screening room, seats up to 100 people and is the largest of its kind in
London. With aubergine walls and large apple green leather chairs, the
room can be used as a dramatic meeting room when not in cinematic use.
Local Attractions:
