Rosewood London, formerly Chancery Court, is a luxury 5-star hotel in London, England. It is located at 252 High Holborn in the Holborn neighbourhood of the West End and occupies a 1914 Belle Époque building designed by H Percy Monckton which was formerly the headquarters of the Pearl Assurance Company from 1914 to 1989. The principal façades, as well as the interiors of the former East and West Banking Halls (now Scarfes Bar and Holborn Dining Room respectively) and the Grand Staircase are all protected with Listed Building status.
Rosewood London is a part of Dallas, Texas-based Rosewood Hotels & Resorts.[1]
The hotel was a filming location for The Saint (1997), The Politician's Wife (1995) and the hotel's previous fine-dining restaurant, Pearl, played host to the finale of Masterchef: The Professionals (2010). The 1883 segment of the 2005 Doctor Who online adventure game, "Attack of the Graske", takes place on High Holborn in front of the address at which the hotel would later be constructed.[2]
