NEWS… BUT NOT AS YOU KNOW IT
‘Music is dead’. ‘Rock and Roll isn’t what it used to be’. These are the mutterings of many who have watched aghast as Tottenham Court Road has evolved over the years. Just off where huge glass caverns usher you into the bowels of the Tottenham Court Road Elizabeth line, lies Denmark Street, London’s Tin Pan Alley.
It’s the home of music, where near enough every great British musician there ever was came to put a marker in the sand with the likes of the Rolling Stones, Queen, and the Kinks making early recordings here. Paul Simon, Bob Marley, Stevie Wonder and Jimi Hendrix too. David Bowie even lived on the street in his converted ambulance, while The Sex Pistols lived and recorded at 6-7 Denmark Street.

Positioned as honouring its heritage, where music thrived and the party never ends, the opulent hotel is now welcoming guests for an absolutely outrageous stay.
