English rock group, The Libertines, have confirmed plans to open a new hotel in Margate. It will be named: The Albion Rooms. 

The Albion Rooms will open in the former Palm Court Hotel (pictured left) in the south coast resort.

Restoration work on the ten-bedroom hotel will be starting shortly. A new recording studio has already been installed.

The Albion Rooms will include a restaurant.  Residents can expect bedrooms which will be "individually designed ... each with a distinctly Libertines' style".

The Libertines reportedly want to create a venue similar to Andy Warhol's New York studio - The Factory -  a creative space for them to record in, but also a ‘fun pad’ for pals and the public to stay in. However, "It's unnerved some of the locals who fear the band could turn the area into a crazy party zone."

The Albion Rooms is expected to open in early 2019.

A new luxury boutique hotel is set to open in central London – but not until 2020.

 

The new hotel will be located in the One Crown Place development in the City of London. The hotel will be set in a restored Georgian terrace, a building which dates back to the early 1800s.

 

The hotel will be one part of a mixed-use development. It will have 41 bedrooms, a 100-cover destination restaurant and bar alongside a private members’ club. 

 

The One Crown Place hotel will span five floors across six Georgian townhouses.

 

Each of the six townhouses will feature ground floor communal areas interlinked by a series of rooms. They will include a deli, a social café, art gallery in the lobby with a reception parlour, a club lounge with a bar and an adjoining library room.

 

The name of the hotel will be unveiled later this year.

 

One Crown Place hotel is located in Sun Street, nestling between Old Street, Shoreditch and the City of London. It is a stone’s throw from Liverpool Street Station.

Plans to build a new boutique hotel in Birmingham’s Jewellery Quarter have been given the green light.

 

The15-bedroom hotel will be created from a Grade II-listed former goldsmith’s factory in Frederick Street.

 

The building, which dates back to the 1860’s, is currently derelict and in a poor state of repair.

 

Conversion plans have been masterminded by Mosaic Pub and Dining. They own The Button Factory next door which now operates as a Mosaic Pub & Dining outlet.

 

Mosaic also operate The Distillery in Birmingham's Sheepcote Street on the opposite side of the city centre.

 

No anticipated opening dates are currently available.
