Great Scotland Yard to be transformed into luxury hotel

A £100m redevelopment of Great Scotland Yard, the former home of the London Metropolitan Police, will see it reopen in early 2016 as a luxury hotel with conference space.

Plans to turn Great Scotland Yard into a five-star conference hotel have been given the go-ahead following an acquisition by London property developers Galliard Group.

The former home of the London Metropolitan Police will be transformed into a seven-storey hotel with 235 rooms, a restaurant and bar and conference facilities for 120 delegates.

Redeveloping the Grade II listed building is expected to cost £100m, which will include VIP suites worth up to £10,000 a night, making the hotel one of the most expensive in London.
