History Shaped By Two Centuries of Stories

1815 – 1837

The Begining

After serving in the army, our founder Henry Walduck started up a catering business in Kent.

Henry’s son, Thomas Henry Walduck, moved to London in the early 1830s. He chose to take the family catering business in a new direction and in 1837 he bought a hotel in Warwick Court, near Chancery Lane. This was the beginning of the family’s journey as hoteliers!

The President Hotel was built from a merging of Premier and Guilford Hotels.

Named ‘President’ due to the increase in commercial air travel; this state-of-the-art accommodation had large TVs, en-suites, radios and telephones.

Did you know? The Beatles used President Hotel as their London base, when they came down from Liverpool, during the summer of 1963. They even had a famous pillow fight in room 444!

Arcu nibh cras interdum proin dictumst

Imperial Hotel re-opened in 1969/70 following demolition in 1966

Architect Charles Lovett Gill brought the same brutalist style of Bedford Hotel into the Imperial’s building design.

Work then began on the Royal National Hotel in 1974. By merging Royal Hotel and National Hotel, 250 rooms were first renovated in 1974, with the next phases staggered throughout the 70s and 80s.

Magna eget aliquet volutpat ut

Morton Hotel opened in 2013

Previously used as staff accommodation since the 70s, this boutique hotel was named after actor and theatre manager Charles Morton. The décor was carefully chosen to reflect The Bloomsbury Group style; a circle of bohemian artists and writers who once lived in our neighbourhood.
