The recently opened Hoxton Hotel, situated in east London has recently dicovered an ingenious way of earning revenue during the daytime.
All those City of London Execs short on office space can now rent a Hoxton Hotel room at £19 a go which gives you WiFi and two hours of free UK phone calls.
The hotel admit that there maybe a blurring of lines as far as office meetings go - they say that the sort of office meeting doesn’t matter “They can lock the door, so it’s up to them.”
For those of you wandering London’s streets for temporary office accommodation the Hoxton Hotel could be your answer:-
“Close to Old Street tube and the City of London, The Hoxton provides easy access to Moorgate, Finsbury Square and Liverpool Street and is staggering distance from some of London’s best bars, restaurants and clubs.”

Room rates can be as little as £70 ($140) per night (very reasonable for a top UK hotel) which gets you a night in a beautifully aged room. The Great House includes a well regarded French restaurant run by Monsieur et Madame Crepy with a 3 course dinner costing in the region of £26 ($52).
The hotel was built in the 14th century, overlooks Lavenham’s Market Square and incorporates a choice of five rooms (one includes a four poster bed). With only five rooms it’s not the biggest hotel in the world but who says size is everything!!!?
