Company DescriptionHolborn was the second Hox to join the fam, taking over a Grade II-listed building that was once the factory of George Kent, a famed maker of gadgets and instruments (among them a knife sharpener/cleaner now sitting in the Science Museum, no less). After Kent, BT moved in, and now this former telephone exchange is home to 230 bedrooms (expanding from the original 174) and the Apartment, plus our foodie hotspot Rondo and wine bar La Cave, all a stone’s throw from the capital’s most famous shopping and entertainment districts.

Homey & Layered
The Hoxton is a series of hotels rooted in culture and community. Each hotel is a reflection of its neighbourhood, inspired by the diversity of the streets and scenes that surround them. Ever since we opened the doors of our first hotel in Shoreditch back in 2006, we’ve been known for our vibrant, homey lobbies and our celebration of the locality through art, design, retail and eclectic programming.
