“Dreamed up by Soho House founder Nick Jones, The Ned has nine restaurants, 15 bars, a spa, two pools and a members’ club. The imposing hulk of a building used to be the headquarters of the Midland Bank.”
Featured in CN Traveler’s 2018 Hot List.
“When London-based Soho House & Co teamed up with New York’s Sydell Group to resurrect a former bank, glamorous stay The Ned was born. This wasn’t any ordinary bank, though. The 1924 Grade 1 listed building is a remarkable structure, designed by (and named for) legendary London architect Sir Edwin “Ned” Lutyens.”

The Grade I-listed building was designed by Sir Edwin ‘Ned’ Lutyens in 1924. Each bedroom at The Ned features elements of design specific to the 1920s and 1930s and includes vintage pieces, richly patterned furnishings and rainforest showers.
The former Grand Banking Hall is host to eight restaurants that serve a wide range of cuisines, from Britain to Northern Italy, North America to Asia.
Six private hire rooms and two terraces are at guests’ disposal and are among the building’s most elegant spaces. They all benefit from natural light, period features and have a dedicated reception area.
At a surcharge and subject to availability. guests have access to Ned’s Club Relax with a 20 m indoor pool, a sauna, steam room and Moroccan hammam, along with Ned’s Club Active’s 620 square meter gym, three exercise studios and boxing gym.
The property is within a short walk from St. Paul’s Cathedral and within 15 minutes from Oxford Street and the West End, by tube. Bank Station also offers a direct DLR connection to London City Airport, which can be reached in 30 minutes.
The city of London is a great choice for travelers interested in city trips, city walks and history.

Not great for the price
Beautiful place food amazing
Paid a lot of money, didn't like to pay extra for spa and we paid for breakfast when we booked but had to pay extra so you only get a amount when you book we only had a orange juice, breakfast tea and cooked breakfast which I think is no being greedy

A wonderful hotel experience.
The room though quite small was well equipped. The bed was super comfortable. The midday check out was perfect for a relaxed morning.
A stunning venue but for us it was very expensive. It was
a wedding gift and we thoroughly enjoyed our experience but the cost for us is prohibitive I'm afraid.

Very good
Restaurants were lovely staff were accommodating and lovely. The room is lovely with nice amenities. The ned is a special place so it's a nice experience
I booked a disabled room and it was a far walk to the room. The room was quite small for a disabled room, my mum wasn't using a wheelchair but I couldn't imagine a wheelchair being in there comfortable at all.

Fabulous
- The entertainment and restaurants/bars are amazing. No need to hit the city.
- Live music almost the entire day!!!
- Best gym i have ever seen - even high level kettlebells!!!
- Disco and Live Jazz restaurant in the basement!
- Lots of areas to sit!
- The rooftop bar AND dicso is only for club-members. Not even for the hotel guests. This is very weak for a hotel that charges 800 pounds + a night - you really need to change this!!!
- 60 pounds for a normal breakfast is too much.
- I found a desk in the middle of the hall at a corner to work, but was sent off, as it is for hotel staff - !?!?!? There are no silents spots to work during the day...

Great and trendy hotel with large public areas, filled with mostly non hotel patrons
Nice and very trendy hotel with many restaurants and bars. Great interior in an old bank. Location is good, the area is more business orientated, however, the tube station Bank is right next to the hotel. Staff friendly and reliable.
There are no real areas for hotel guests. In the main hall there are several restaurants and bars, and it's open to the public. Starting around 4pm this area is packed and very loud. Absolutely not possible to go down and read something, or even to find a place to sit, without prior reservation.

A glamorous setting for a Christmas visit to London
Breakfast was delicious! The amenities in the room were great, especially the range of toiletries
The room felt a little sparse, but this wouldn’t put me off of staying again.

Great stay with my family
The Ned was an amazing place for my family to stay. I would like to highlight the kindness and exceptional service of Jack and Eleonora. They were so kind, helped us to find the best locations in London and made everything to make staying at the Ned exceptional.

Hotel room fantastic, bed was incredibly comfy, loved the hot shower, we just really enjoyed all of it. The two of us, h
architecture,design, incredible flowers, atmosphere, live music, food Asian restaurant fantastic
I would probably say,although it wasn’t a problem but could have been if the timings where different, not a lot of seating to enjoy a cocktail so lots of people standing around, service wasn’t a problem but again could have been just lucky with timings. Lounge bar open to public so it did get incredibly busy.
