COURTHOUSE HOTEL SHOREDITCH

Historic Courthouse serves now as an exclusive place of wellbeing

The Courthouse Hotel Shoreditch was originally constructed in 1905 and served as a Police station and Magistrates Court until it was disbanded in 1998. Many remnants of the original Grade II building have been incorporated into the building’s current hotel scheme, which is an elegant fusion of heritage building with modern style and convenience. Designed by Garuda and Girish Sanger, along with lead architect Consarc, notable and historic features retained include the entrance doors, floors, stained glass and wooden flooring.

Upon entering the hotel, visitors are received in the a spacious ground floor lobby decorated in art deco style. The hotel bar features marble walls, black Indian mica slate flooring and low leather seating. Retaining the character of the building’s original use, three original prison cells set along one wall have been converted into private booths with whitewashed walls. Directly through the lobby is the hotel lounge. This space is flanked by five stone pillars on either side, with water features in terracotta pots set into the wall. This area can be converted into a catwalk or a viewing room for art shows etc.

Each of the 116 rooms and suites is designed with stylish furnishings to provide exceptional standards of comfort. Befitting a contemporary design hotel, the bathroom interiors are sourced exclusively from Italy, with the modern fixtures coming from the Villeroy & Boch Memento and Venticello collections. In addition, a frosted picture window between the bathroom and bedroom offers light and privacy at the same time.

Other notable hotel highlights include the original Robert Adams fireplaces that adorn some of the suites as well as the original court house elements retained in Silk, the hotel’s destination restaurant. Formerly the Number One Court, the Judge’s bench, witness stand and dock take centre stage with the space additionally retaining its old English oak paneling and character.
