The Eton Group has recently opened Threadneedles hotel and restaurant in the City of London.

Designed by GA International, the hotel has 69 guestrooms and suites, a bar and an 80-cover restaurant.

Existing features - some of them listed - were retained, including mahogany panelling, cornice work and a listed bank counter. These were combined with contemporary additions including walnut veneer, brown and red leather upholstered seating and bold highlights of colour.

The rooms have floor-to-ceiling walnut wardrobe units, a pale colour palette with lime green, crimson, orange and yellow accents, and striking artwork. Details: +44 (0)20 7482 0054
