Reviews and Commentaries about the Chancery Court Hotel:

Named by The Times as "one of the most exciting hotels in the world" the hotel is located in a landmark 1914 building transformed into a stunning five-star hotel. The location is one of London's most central with West End theatres, Covent Garden, the British Museum and St. Paul's within walking distance and is one of the nearest hotels to the City, London's financial district. The building has served as the setting for films such as Howard's End and The Saint, and BBC productions and includes numerous architectural features such as a grand staircase of rare Pavonazzo marble, soaring archways and a classical central courtyard. Guest rooms are among the largest in any London hotel and all have marble bathrooms.

"On arrival at the Entrance Hall guests are not immediately aware what the hotel holds in store for them, due to the configuration of the building."

"For a central London venue this hotel has the rare luxury of an entrance approached through a carriageway and central courtyard, away from the teeming traffic of High Holborn."
