Hilton London Metropole is undergoing a massive transformation, with a multimillion-pound renovation aimed at completely reinventing the guest experience. This exciting project, set to be completed by summer 2021, promises to elevate every aspect of the hotel, from the rooms to the restaurants and event spaces.
A Modern, London-Inspired Look
The 1,096 guestrooms and suites have been given a contemporary, bold makeover. Each space reflects different London boroughs, offering a unique and engaging experience for guests.
The hotel’s four restaurants and bars are being relaunched with exciting new dining concepts, including a British brasserie featuring locally sourced ingredients and a market-style dining outlet showcasing the best of London’s street food scene. For those seeking a healthy escape, a state-of-the-art 200sqm (2,153sqf) fitness studio will also open its doors.
A New Era for Meetings and Events
The hotel’s 35 event spaces and meeting rooms, including two dedicated hybrid meeting rooms and three ballrooms, are receiving extensive renovations. From the 1,062 Square Metres (11,431sqf) Richmond Suite to the Kensington Suite, with its open private foyer and space for up to 1,350 guests, these spaces are being transformed to meet the demands of modern events.
Hilton London Metropole also operates Hilton EventReady with CleanStay, ensuring clean, flexible, and socially responsible event experiences.
A Vision for the Future
Remco Norden, Area General Manager, expresses his enthusiasm for the renovation: “Our ambitious multimillion-pound renovation will maintain Hilton London Metropole as Europe’s leading conference and events hotel. The refurbishment will radically transform every element of the hotel, from our restaurants and bars to our bedrooms, suites, and meeting and event spaces. It will elevate the guest experience and continue to make us the venue of choice for business and leisure travellers and corporate and private events of any scale.”
“The refurbishment celebrates London and our hotel’s wonderful history. Despite the challenges the industry has faced in 2020, our hotel has an incredibly bright future, and this renovation is our opportunity to invest in it.”
A Seamless and Connected Experience
The hotel has embraced the latest technology to ensure a smooth and enjoyable stay, from upgraded Wi-Fi to Digital Key, which allows Hilton Honours members to check in and choose their room using their smartphone via the Hilton Honours app.
Celebrating London’s Rich History
The new design weaves London’s rich history into the hotel. Guests will experience engaging touchpoints from the city’s vibrant art, culture, music, and diverse food scene.
This immersive experience will take guests through the capital’s heritage, with nods to iconic areas like Borough Market, Covent Garden, and towns on the Thames.
Sustainability at the Forefront
Sustainability is at the heart of Hilton London Metropole and its refurbishment. From team member uniforms made from recycled plastic to green kitchens serving locally grown produce, the hotel has partnered with businesses and manufacturers to create an ethical and environmentally conscious space.
Luxurious Amenities and Services
Guests staying in Suites or Executive Rooms will enjoy complimentary breakfast and access to the Executive Lounge. This contemporary lounge offers a dedicated arrivals area and check-in facilities, along with a curated food and drink offering, monthly tasting events, and live cooking experiences.
Guests can also feel confident that their health and well-being have been taken care of thanks to Hilton CleanStay, an industry-defining standard of cleanliness and disinfection delivered in Hilton properties worldwide.

With its central location, impeccable transport links, a variety of room options, a wide selection of dining experiences, and an impressive fitness studio, Hilton London Metropole remains the perfect choice for the business traveler.
