Going to Town

Dean Street Townhouse Hotel and Restaurant Opens

Some things in life are certain. Your mum makes the best roast. The Christmas No. 1 will be an X Factor finalist. And the Soho House group’s latest will become the hottest spot in town.

Opening today is Dean Street Townhouse — a 39-bedroom hotel and restaurant (accessible to all) in an elegant Georgian townhouse — run by those behind Babington House, Shoreditch House and most recently Pizza East.

The decor is fabulously granny chic (poster beds and hand-painted wallpapers). The restaurant, which starts serving Monday, is similarly old school, with vintage armchairs, chandeliers and dishes such as pheasant goujons with Oxford sauce.

Sounds like a classic recipe you can rely on.
