Amenity highlights: Internet access (fee) is available in the lobby. The three meeting rooms can be converted into one large conference room with theater-style seating for 150. Insider tip: The Sir John Soane’s Museum is five minutes’ walk away in Lincoln’s Inn Fields. The house of an 18th-century London architect, it can be seen just as he left it, crammed with his extensive collection of antiquities. |
