St Pancras Renaissance London (Opened in 1873)
The hotel was built in the 1860s when railway travel was a thriving industry, and the Midland Railway Service opened the magnificent hotel next to the train station.
It was constructed in Venetian Gothic architecture and instantly became a favourite of wealthy businessmen. However, despite its remarkable architecture and location, the hotel quickly became outdated and abandoned … Until 2002, when its full potential was realized when it re-opened as St Pancras Renaissance London.
The guest rooms exude elegance, luxury and style. Original details have been carefully preserved, but at the same time, the hotel offer amenities that today’s traveller desires. From the state-of-the-art entertainment system in the hotel room to the over-the-top spa, and exquisite meals from Gilbert Scott Bar’s modernized British menu.
