The Wesley to open second London hotel in Camden Town
The Wesley is to open its second London hotel at the end of the year after a £9m investment to convert a chapel in Camden Town.
It is the second hospitality partnership entered into by the Methodist Church, which first opened the Methodist International Centre some 20 years ago before converting it to The Wesley Euston hotel and conference centre in 2012.
A mixed-use project, The Wesley has worked with the church and Manolo & White Architects to create a worship and community space for the church on the lower ground floor of the building along with 38 bedrooms over four further floors.
James Barr, general manager of both the Wesley hotels, said: "We're delighted to open the doors to The Wesley Camden Town, as London's newest boutique hotel. The hotel will perfectly complement the vibrancy of the neighbourhood and builds on the ethical credentials established over the years at The Wesley London Euston.
"As a collaborative project with The Methodist Church, we're so pleased to be able to safeguard the future of this wonderful listed building, whilst opening it up to UK and international visitors to London who will, as we say, ‘discover the beat' of one of the capital's most exciting locations."
