The Courthouse Hotel Kempinski in the West End of London gives guests a chance to experience
something a little different. As it's name suggests, this hotel was once the Great Marlborough
Street Magistrate's Court and many a famous face has been in the dock in years gone by. This
unique and quirky hotel, just a short walk from Covent Garden, retains it's original features
but provides every modern comfort one would expect. The magnificent original features of this
Grade II Listed building remain throughout the hotel, such as the waiting room, the Number One
Court, (complete with the Judges bench, witness stand and dock.), three prison cells and the
iron bars that separate the lobby lounge from the bar.
