Hilton London Metropole is undergoing a monumental transformation, a multimillion-pound renovation aiming to completely revamp the guest experience. The ambitious project, set to be completed by summer 2021, promises a breathtaking upgrade, touching every corner of the hotel.
A Modern London Experience Awaits
The 1,096 guestrooms and suites have received a striking makeover, embracing a contemporary and bold aesthetic that pays homage to the diverse London boroughs. Each space is unique, reflecting the city’s rich tapestry of culture and history. The hotel’s culinary scene is being reinvented as well, with four exciting new restaurants and bars offering everything from locally sourced British fare in an all-day brasserie to a vibrant market-style dining experience celebrating London’s diverse street food scene. And for those seeking fitness, a state-of-the-art 200sqm fitness studio will provide a haven for wellness.
A World-Class Venue for Events
The renovation extends beyond guest rooms, encompassing a complete overhaul of the hotel’s 35 event spaces and meeting rooms, including two dedicated hybrid meeting rooms and three magnificent ballrooms. These spaces, spanning over 4,600sqm, are perfect for everything from intimate gatherings to grand celebrations. From the 1,062 Square Metre Richmond Suite to the Kensington Suite, with its open private foyer and capacity for 1,350 guests, every space has been meticulously designed to cater to diverse needs. Hilton London Metropole also proudly operates Hilton EventReady with CleanStay, ensuring clean, flexible, safe, and socially responsible event experiences.
A Vision for the Future: A Commitment to Guest Experience and Sustainability
Remco Norden, Area General Manager, expresses his excitement about the transformation: “Our ambitious multimillion-pound renovation will maintain Hilton London Metropole as Europe’s leading conference and events hotel. This 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.”
Seamless Technology and a Celebration of London
The hotel embraces cutting-edge technology, offering upgraded Wi-Fi and Digital Key, allowing Hilton Honours members to check in and select their room using their smartphones. The new design seamlessly integrates London’s rich history, art, culture, music, and diverse food scene, creating a truly immersive experience for guests. From the architecture to the restaurants and bars, each element pays tribute to the city’s unique character. The design journey takes guests on an exploration through East, Central, and West London, showcasing iconic areas like Borough Market, Covent Garden, and the River Thames.
Sustainability at the Forefront
Sustainability is at the heart of Hilton London Metropole’s renovation. From the team member uniforms made from recycled plastic to the green kitchens serving locally sourced produce, the hotel is dedicated to creating an ethical and environmentally conscious space.
