28 THE WORLD OF HOSPITALITY
The 33 rooms continue The Gyle’s characteristic
mix of comfort, quality, convenience and
eccentricity. Upon arrival, guest will find in the
room their own tablet to control the technology,
fridge with complimentary water and large
bottles of Scottish toiletries – sustainable
and efficient, this really is a modern London
Townhouse. Each room includes bespoke
furniture such as a wardrobe and a bed with
detailing that references the crafts of British
fashion, carpentry, engineering and literature.
Optimising the feeling of space and natural
light, the en-suite bathrooms are enclosed with
steel and fluted glass panels, reminiscent of
a garden greenhouse. The memorable design
aims to comfort and surprise in equal measure,
juxtaposing the aesthetics of different periods
from today back to Victorian time. This is
expressed in highly textured, layered interiors
using surfaces in warm sober tones of charcoal,
THE GYLE HOTEL
anthracite, ash, flint and pewter, with textiles in
organic accents of moss, fir and juniper greens.
The entire hotel, content and identity, have been
conceptualised by artist and designer Henry
Chebaane with the intent to communicate the
rich industrial legacy of the neighbourhood and
the Victorian heritage of the buildings, while also
making the experience entertaining and relevant
to 21st century travellers.
The Gyle aims to deliver an original experience
that transcend clichés while remaining true to its
roots, inspirations and dedication to providing a
quality, memorable visit to Britain. Welcome to
London’s most surreal Townhouse, located in a
real London Square.
