Lost Property St Paul’s Hotel Opens on the Doorstep of the Cathedral

LONDON – Hilton (NYSE: HLT) today celebrates the opening of Lost Property St Paul’s London - Curio Collection by Hilton. Situated in the City of London, the property is in an area steeped in history and heritage, and today a hive of activity. The 145-room property is just 100 metres from St Paul’s Cathedral, making it the perfect base to explore the capital, with Covent Garden, Shoreditch and South Bank all within walking distance.

The hotel’s name nods to the property that has been lost in the city - a theme which runs throughout the interior design, with ‘lost’ bowler hats joining eclectic artworks. The property itself is designed to feel like you are lost in an artistic maze, filled with history-rich panels and whimsical artworks. The interiors celebrate the intricacies of lost craftsmanship and innovative design, echoing the shapes and architectural forms found in St Paul’s Cathedral and the neighbouring streets. Bright and light rooms over six floors have been uniquely designed to capture the vibrancy of the local area - sleek and modern with marble bathrooms and an industrial touch, a nod to the hotel’s urban surroundings. Bespoke red and blue colour schemes reflect the city's heritage, and several rooms have a prime view of the Cathedral. 

The property – developed by London-based Dominvs Group - features an atmospheric ground-floor bar and restaurant called Found, which offers a classic food and drinks menu with a nostalgic twist. The bespoke bar is eight metres long and crafted out of bright blue resin, with stunning Murano glass pendants creating mood lighting and a cosy feel. Cocktails are colourful and theatrical, with each carefully crafted drink telling a forgotten story. Dishes include rich French classics such as Bouillabaisse and Coq au Vin, and hearty British classics such as Ploughman’s and Welsh Rarebit.

There is also a premium coffee house called Tattle, which has a separate street entrance for commuters and locals. Here, guests and diners can enjoy healthy breakfasts, light lunches and snacks, made with locally sourced, organic produce and all available to eat in or take away, as well as artisanal coffee from Monmouth.
