History

Eccleston Square Hotel is a grade II listed building[8] and was renovated over a period of 1 year at a cost of £6.5 million.[2] The architectural and interior design work for the project was performed by Woods Bagot[9] and opened in August 2011.[2] The hotel is operated by Olivia Byrne[10] and her brother James Byrne.[3]

Six months after opening, Eccleston won the 2011 In-Room Technology Innovation award at the European Hospitality Awards.[2]

Features

Features of the hotel include fiber optic wifi Wifi, VOIP telephony, Sky 3D, 3D DVD library, Blu-ray DVD Library, Nespresso coffee facilities, Hästens Massage Beds, iPad concierge, iPod docking station and 46”Panasonic flat screen televisions.[1][6] Eccleston is also said to have shower glass that can turn from transparent to frosted by flipping a switch. Additional bathroom features include heated floors.[1]

In 2013, the Toronto Star listed Eccleston as a "hotel for health-minded travellers" based on the sleep-induced sounds and images that are broadcast in each room which are designed to promote better sleep.[11]
