St Bart's Brewery is a new pub, club and event venue which has recently opened in London, just across from Smithfield Market.
 St Bart's Brewery features a contemporary design with plenty of natural daylight. The event space is divided into different  areas: the Balfour Bar, the mezzanine, the lounge, the stage and the dance floor. The rooms will accommodate up to 250 guests in total and can be used for canapé receptions,  informal or formal dinners, wine tastings, live music, presentations or award ceremonies. St Bart's Brewery doesn't have hotel bedrooms - at least not yet.
The nearest tube stations are Barbican and Farringdon with St Paul's a five minute walk away.

InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) has just opened its first EVEN Hotel in Connecticut in the USA. EVEN Hotels is IHG’s latest lifestyle and wellness hotel brand, designed to meet the growing demands of the fitness-minded travellers.

EVEN Hotels focus on four main aspects ensuring guests: eat well, rest easy, keep active and accomplish more. Specifically food and beverages are naturally sourced and freshly prepared. The guest rooms include an in-room training zone. The general manager will also lead a morning community run which we suspect is probably not obligatory. EVEN Hotel bedrooms also feature fast and free wi-fi as well as a 40inch HD television.

Norwalk in Connecticut is the first EVEN Hotel to open. There are four more in the pipeline including two properties in midtown Manhattan; one in Brooklyn, New York; and one in Rockville, Maryland. There appear to be no immediate plans for a European launch.
