See life in a whole new light at Montcalm East, which occupies a prime spot between Shoreditch and the City, a short stroll from Old Street station. Experience London’s creative spirit at this innovative hotel, whose iconic, diamond-shaped architecture pays tribute to Tate Modern artist Bridget Riley. As light plays upon it, the dazzling metallic façade plays tricks with the eyes. Get a flavour of East London at the hotel’s best-of British restaurant, Moor & Mead, where locally sourced ingredients are cooked with flair.

Pick from 288 light-bathed rooms, which maximise the building’s distinctive diagonal windows; for eye-popping city views, the Sky-High rooms are unrivalled. Rain showers, underfloor heating, free WIFI and plenty of mod-cons are included. Unwind after urban adventures in our Bokeh Spa or hit the high-spec fitness centre. There’s even an entire floor set aside for events and weddings, should you need it.
