According to the proprietors, the Bishop’s Gate Hotel, built in 1899, blends “stunning Edwardian architecture, stylish appointments and luxurious facilities which will be sensitively restored to pay homage to the rich heritage of the building, whilst exceeding the contemporary needs and desires of its guests.
“In its reincarnation no detail will be left to chance; this iconic landmark will be an intimate urban oasis featuring 31 luxurious guestrooms, including 3 suites, a residents lounge, fitness area, restaurant, champagne and cocktail bar and a 100 person capacity ballroom.
“At the heart of the hotel, ‘The Wig and Gown Champagne Bar and Grill’ will offer casual, high end dining all day and provide the perfect place to relax and unwind with a cocktail or glass of Champagne, complemented by live entertainment on select evenings.”
