About Imperial London Hotels

Imperial London Family of Hotels may not be the most immediately recognisable hotel brand, and yet it has a celebrated history as the owner of numerous hotels in Bloomsbury, London, for over 185 years. Throughout this time, it has remained an independent and private business, and is currently under the Directorship of the 7th generation of the same family.  Imperial London Hotels own and operate seven 3 & 4-star hotels near Russell Square underground station, including the UK’s largest hotel, The Royal National Hotel (over 1,600 rooms).

These are exciting times for Imperial London as it seeks to evolve and modernise all areas of the business whilst keeping its unique heritage and culture at its heart. The flagship Imperial Hotel is undergoing a major refurbishment and will open in early 2026 as a 4* Deluxe Hotel and a new jewel in the crown of London’s hospitality offering. In May 2023, Imperial London unveiled a confident and contemporary new brand identity, laying the foundation for future business growth and success.
