About

Kimpton Fitzroy London

Kimpton Fitzroy London is a landmark five-star hotel overlooking Russell Square in Bloomsbury. Dating from 1898, the Grade II listed building is known for its elaborate terracotta façade, marble interiors, sweeping staircase and restored period details, combining the scale and character of a historic grand hotel with contemporary accommodation and event facilities.

 

The hotel's principal event space is its restored Ballroom, a double-height room with a private entrance from Bernard Street, original architectural detailing, a mezzanine gallery and a wall of windows providing natural daylight. Alongside the Ballroom, the hotel has eight dedicated meeting and event rooms on the lower-ground floor, ranging from intimate boardrooms to flexible spaces for up to 80 guests.

 

Kimpton Fitzroy London also has 334 bedrooms and suites, making it particularly well suited to residential conferences, corporate programmes, weddings and events bringing guests into London.

Why Hire

Kimpton Fitzroy London combines the architectural impact of one of London's grand historic hotels with a genuinely useful range of modern event spaces. The Ballroom is the standout, offering the scale and visual character required for gala dinners, awards, conferences and celebrations without sacrificing natural daylight or contemporary production facilities.

 

The supporting rooms make the hotel particularly effective for conferences and multi-session events. Carrington and Grant can operate together or independently, while Keynes provides another substantial meeting room and the smaller rooms work well for breakouts, board meetings and private dining.

 

With 334 bedrooms onsite, the hotel is also a strong residential event option. Its position directly on Russell Square places delegates within easy reach of King's Cross St Pancras, Euston, the West End and London's major cultural and business districts.
