PULLMAN
HOTEL – LONDON ST PANCRAS
Style Hotel Near Eurostar International Terminal
The Pullman name
is associated with rail travel and luxury, synonymous with the rail
sleeping car invented by George Pullman in 1867 to provide
sleeping accommodations on long distance rail travel trips, so it is
with this connection in mind Accor hotels has branded its European collection
of upscale rail station convenient hotels. On a recent trip from London
by Eurostar to Brussels and beyond The Pullman Hotel London provided
a perfect starting off point with style, comfort and welcoming service.
Formerly a Novotel hotel the redesigned and rebranded Pullman Hotel on
Euston Road a block away from the St Pancras International Terminal and
Kings Cross station, aside from offering a nearby departure point for
my travels, also provided a pampered base for exploring London, with
an easy hop on the underground.
After undergoing
a multi-million pound complete renovation this stylish and chic hotel,
the first Pullman
Hotel in the UK with 313 rooms, has
been transformed into one of London’s premiere hotels, focused
on the business traveler, but providing all the needs of the casual
leisure traveler as well. The crisp modern design rooms offer a range
from “Classic” to
Deluxe, all with King beds (though a two single bed room option is
available), luxury linens and toiletries, 40’ flat screen TVs,
and contemporary bathrooms with rain showers. A relaxing session in
the whirlpool bathtub
was a welcome end to a long day of walking around London. The double,
or upgraded Deluxe Suites with expansive panoramic views across London,
from the Victorian era brick of the St Pancras Station to the iconic “Gherkin” and
brand new spire of “The Shard” rising over the skyline
in the distance.
Bowler hat lamps
of the lobby design scheme and rail track motifs
tie the period of the Pullman railroading past to modern contemporary
feel
of the colored leather of the lobby. The AA Rosette award winning
Golden Arrow Restaurant & Bar, which encompasses a portion of the
lobby floor, with open “theater “kitchen and grill, and
glass enclosed vinotek concept wine and whiskey collection on view
offers
a menu of
modern and fresh European inspired cuisine. Breakfasts are also served
in the open dining space, with all a full complement of offerings
before setting off on a busy day.
