From Police HQ to Luxe Retreat – Great Scotland Yard Opens After Two-Century Hiatus
Historic Roots
Picture this: a building that once held London’s police chief, hosted Scottish monarchs, and even fed the imagination of the world‑famous sleuth Arthur Conan Doyle. Today, Great Scotland Yard is stepping out of the past to greet guests in modern, chic style.
New Features
Rooms and Suites
We’ve got 152 rooms across five stories, and 15 suites that whisper luxury in neutral tones. Think understated elegance with a dash of daring.
Undercover Nods
- Wardrobes hide behind a bookcase façade – because every guest deserves a little mystery.
- Robe hooks shaped like keys, because why not add a touch of detective flair to your towel?
Dining & Drinks
Chef Robin Gill (Irish “Master Chef”) steers the culinary ship with fresh British fare at The Yard. The cocktail scene thrives at The 40 Elephants, while the tearoom The Parlour offers tea with a side of serene scones.
Additional Gems
- Nearby, No1 Great Scotland Yard Townhouse offers a cozy two‑bedroom escape, perfect for a staycation.
- Round‑the‑clock fitness centre – because even detective dreams need to stay fit.
All a part of The Unbound Collection by Hyatt, Premiering Europe’s new standard for independent boutique lodging. Cheers to fresh stories, detective vibes, and a hotel that’s come full circle from a police precinct to a premium palace!
