The Ned London

History

The building at 27 Poultry was designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens and completed in 1935, a landmark of the interwar period in the City of London. Originally constructed as a bank headquarters, it exemplifies Lutyens's monumental classical style with its Portland stone facade and refined proportions. The structure has been sympathetically restored and repurposed as a hotel and members' club, preserving its architectural heritage whilst introducing contemporary hospitality.

Neighbourhood

Poultry sits at the heart of the City, moments from the Bank of England and the Royal Exchange. The street sits within the dense network of medieval lanes that characterise this financial quarter, with the Monument and Thames within walking distance. Guests benefit from proximity to the Circle, District, and Northern lines at Bank station. The area caters primarily to business travellers and those attending the City's financial institutions, though cultural attractions including the Museum of London and Guildhall Art Gallery lie nearby.

The experience

The hotel operates across both a private members' club and guest accommodation, creating a hybrid model uncommon in London luxury hotels. Interiors reference the building's banking heritage through considered restoration of period details alongside modern design. The offering emphasises discretion and established service standards typical of historic City institutions, with dining and bar facilities integrated throughout. Guests can expect the operational formality associated with a central London business hotel with distinctive architectural character.
