City of London

THE BARBICAN AND MOORGATE, right in the heart of the City of London, are set to benefit with the opening next summer of a hotel within the site of The Brewery, Chiswell Street, formerly an undertaking that its name suggests, and now a popular site for conferences and small exhibitions.  Montcalm Hotels, whose existing property is in Great Cumberland Place, Marble Arch, has started work on the 5-star hotel with a target opening date of June 2011.  A discreet transformation of the Grade II listed building will incorporate a 235-room boutique style hotel including boardroom facilities as well as an on-site gym and spa and all day restaurant. www.montcalm.co.uk
