Thompson Hotels to debut in London
New York-based Thompson Hotels is to make its debut in London with the addition of Belgraves, a Thompson Hotel to the company's portfolio.
A joint venture with The Harilela Group, the hotel is scheduled to open in summer 2011 in Chesham Street in the Belgravia area of the capital. Interior architecture and design will be by British designer, Tara Bernerd and architectural design by EPR Architects. The 85-room property will include an 80-seat signature restaurant, an intimate library bar and a fitness centre.
Jason Pomeranc, co-owner of Thompson Hotels, said: "Our first hotel, 60 Thompson in NY, was ideologically based on the intimacy of British hotels. They have always been an inspiration to our brand, particularly those of London, and the British traveller has been very supportive of our US hotels. "London is a natural transition for the Thompson brand. The opening of Belgraves brings us full circle."
