The hotel has outstanding leisure facilities including an indoor swimming pool, sauna, steam room and gym. A spectacular skyline fitness studio on the 26th floor and a luxury spa with four treatment rooms will follow at the end of 2024. Featuring Proverb products and treatments, a unique selection of treatments ensures guests feel truly revitalized in an extremely calming environment. Proverb products are made exclusively from vegan, organic and natural ingredients such as proteins, antioxidants and enzymes and achieve laboratory-proven results. Spa treatments range from massages to facials, nail treatments and full-body experiences, all with a playful art’otel touch.
Cultural and artistic events from the hotel’s art’beat program with art, music, fashion and wellness form the center of the art’otel guest experience. They offer emerging and established artists the opportunity to create and exhibit works on site. A source of endless inspiration, art’otel London Hoxton ensures that every inch of this new lifestyle hotel leaves guests truly exhilarated and inspired.
To showcase the art’beat program, the property features an impressive 1,500 sq ft art gallery showcasing exclusive works by signature artist D*Face and other local and emerging artists. In addition, changing curated exhibitions take place throughout the year. Hotel guests and the public can also explore the exhibition spaces, enriching Hoxton’s rich and cultural arts scene.
art’otel London Hoxton was brought to life by D*Face, considered one of the most prolific contemporary urban artists of his generation. After spreading his signature style worldwide with well over 100 murals, a multitude of solo exhibitions and major collaborations, D*Face has come full circle and returned to where it all began for him, in London’s iconic East End. Working with Eyal Shoan of award-winning interior design studio Digital Space, D*Face features artwork throughout the bedrooms and public spaces, curating everything from original large-scale sculptures and murals to bespoke details.
Along with Banksy’s two original artworks on public display, the magnificent gear design is probably one of the most striking features of the exterior. The creative architects at Squire & Partners dreamed up this design, creating an expressive exterior façade that lends itself to the explosion of color, artwork and creativity that surrounds guests as they walk through the front door.
