This new East London hangout comes with all the modernity and scene-stealing luxury one would expect from the Lore Group (Sea Containers, London, Pulitzer, Amsterdam), and is filled with workspaces, myriad restaurants and a world-class cocktail bar, all in perfect synch with its Shoreditch surroundings. From the street, the hotel glimmers with long columns of oriel windows that immerse guests into the London skyline via dizzying East London streets. But once through the threshold, the noise of Shoreditch High St becomes a cocktail of contemporary background music, clean design punctuated by plants draped from ceilings and some of the most stylish rooms you’ll find in London.

The 258 rooms and three suites have an aesthetic that’s somewhat reminiscent of an east London loft: finished in muted white tones with contemporary colour pops coming from chic artworks by Strauss and curvaceous vases filled with branches of eucalyptus, while the luxurious finishings hint at a minimalist Scandi design but with an unmistakable east end personality. Each room feels tranquil with soft carpets, crisp linens, plenty of socket/ USB space, and treats from local East London suppliers, as well as beautiful bathrooms with clean lines and DS & Durga bathroom amenities. But the gasp-inducing appeal is at its best in the views: with immersive sights of much of London available through windows, from Juliette balconies and if you book one of the incredibly generous suites: from vast private terraces, ideal for evenings in with room service.

One Hundred Shoreditch benefits from the otherworldly talents of My Lyan (one of London’s best cocktail masters) in the Seed Library basement bar, where a dimly lit sanctuary awaits. The bar is finished beautifully, with elegant autumnal tones and breeze blocks expertly set against brass, and offers strip-backed classic cocktails with a sustainable mindset. But ascend to the roof of One Hundred Shoreditch and you’ll find a bright bar finished in soft pinks, accentuated by myriad plant life and panoramic views of the city.

The exceptional food and drink offerings continue with a chic lobby bar and wine bar, and coffee drinkers are well-served at the Coffee Shop at One Hundred Shoreditch, which serves ethically sourced coffee alongside sandwiches, smoothies and light lunches. While One Hundred Shoreditch doesn’t have a dedicated gym, it does offer a superb Peloton studio with access to Peloton’s live instructors. And for guests staying in a suite, the dedicated concierge can move a Peloton to the serenity of your guest room, should you wish to workout in private… and with a view. Guests can look forward to an itinerary of events and talks focusing on health issues, with partners such as the Gut Stuff delivering a sofa series on topics related to gut health, focusing on things such as stress, anxiety, and myth-busting.

While each of One Hundred Shoreditch’s rooms boasts incredible views, from immersive street views to far-flung cityscapes, perfect for sunsets and champagne, the hotel is ideally situated to explore the very best of London. On the doorstep, you’ll find numerous green spaces from Shoreditch Park to Spitalfields Farm, with excellent restaurants, bars and clubs hidden in every tangible space. Go further afield to explore Central London by tube or overground, or take a walk down to the glittering skyscrapers of Liverpool Street and the delightful docks at St Katherine’s for views of Tower Bridge and more.
