Hart Shoreditch Hotel London, a brand-new 126-room lifestyle hotel from Curio Collection by Hilton is set to open in the heart of East London on the 21st August.
Hart Shoreditch will be located in one of London’s most creative neighbourhoods and will seamlessly blend the area’s vibrant heritage and modern-day creativity through its thoughtfully designed spaces and unique character.
The hotel takes its name from one of the building’s previous occupants, The Harts, who were cabinetmakers in the 1800’s. Once a centre for craftsmanship, East London’s rich industrial and artisan history is referenced throughout the distinctive space (by Fabled Studios). Design details including a striking wrought iron and copper staircase, and contemporary, statement mahogany lighting has been designed bespoke to replicate cabinetmaker’s boxes and pay homage to the building’s past life.

Guests can choose from nine guestroom and suite categories at Hart Shoreditch. Each guestroom features a muted, elegant colour palette with copper mirror accents, deep green leather detailing and simplistic, modern furnishings. In the bathrooms, a mixture of textures and materials come together to create a warm, urban space – concrete vanities, herringbone flooring, bold geometric tiling and paired back brass detailing.
Not only will it be the perfect base for the curious traveller to explore the local area and all of the exciting experiences that come with it, we also want the hotel to become an integral part of Shoreditch – a community hub for those who live, work and play in the area.”
