Whitbread has gained planning consent to redevelop the Bowling Green Lane car park in Farringdon Road, London into a mixed-use hotel, office and retail / restaurant development. 

The group is planning a 180-bedroom Hub by Premier Inn on the site.

The site will benefit from the arrival of Crossrail with its close neighbour Farringdon Station scheduled to open in December 2018.

Hub by Premier Inn is the brand’s city centre budget brand.

The compact bedrooms feature a desk that folds into a Hypnos bed, luggage storage under the bed, bathroom with a power shower and a 40in smart screen TV. 

The first Hub by Premier Inn opened in 2014 in St Martin’s Lane in central London. There are now seven properties in London with a further three in Edinburgh.

Hub by Premier Inns in London are located at: Covent Garden, Tower Bridge, Brick Lane Spitalfields, Goodge Street. St James’s Park Westminster, Kings Cross and Westminster Abbey.

The three in Edinburgh are located at: Royal Mile, Rose Street and Haymarket.
