Next Stop St Pancras Renaissance Hotel
An architectural masterpiece and described by many as the most romantic building in London
The former Midland Grand Hotel has now re-opened as the St Pancras Renaissance London Hotel
It took a decade of restoration to uncover this Victorian masterpiece, that originally opened in 1873 to accommodate rail travelers through the St. Pancras Rail Station.

Designed by Sir George Gilbert Scott - This is no ordinary hotel
The architecture, the decoration, the mixture of classical and contemporary
It is like no other hotel you have ever entered, or will ever enter
The story of how it came into existence is just as extraordinary

It is the tale of a true renaissance; of a national treasure that was almost reduced to rubble but that is today, once again the pride of London
