Hotel du Vin was created from six Grade II listed warehouses known as The Sugar House.
A high wall of steel and glass displays the reception where a steel and oak staircase sweeps to the first floor, whilst outside tables are arranged around the fountain for drinks and al fresco dining on warm days and balmy nights.
The Sugar Bar, which specialises in rums from around the world is a chilled out affair .Climbing the staircase to the first floor of the hotel, guests reach the Christies Library, a lounge lined with bookcases filled with Christies catalogues and decked with stylish artwork. On the same level is the Janneau Billiards Room, another place in which guests can relax. The Bistro with the ‘serious but never stuffy’ dining ambience, evokes the same Parisian fin de siècle exuberance of its sister hotels.
The loft style prevails throughout all 40 rooms, with many of the industrial features of the building being preserved. Exposed beams and girders, rough hessian fabrics, steel and brickwork are complemented by dimple modern décor and warmed by natural woods.But it is possibly in the bathrooms where hedonism truly takes off! Huge sheets of opaque aquamarine glass separate walk-in showers from large freestanding baths.
A great place to stay for a city break with style.
