Arrow Lincoln Plaza London, Curio Collection by Hilton {GBR} [Closed thru January 02, 2024]

Almost a year later than planned, it's finally got a coming soon page here

Looks quite nice, few bars, restaurant and a deli too, which will make a nice addition to the area following the new Novotel bar and restaurant down the road, Bokan, which is a very pleasant place to spend a few hours, up on the 39th floor.

Lincoln Plaza is right in the middle of construction zone for the next few years. Don't plan on sleeping past 8am! It's a few mins walk from the Hilton Canary Wharf.

They can't be too confident of the Aug 2017 opening as bookings are open from Mar 2018.

None of the ground floor areas look anywhere near ready. They do seem to be taking their time with it.

Do many Curios have lounges? Is it a brand thing?

You wouldn't know what it was from outside. Workman go in and out all the time, it's very dull from the outside, next to another massive construction site.

Fair enough......shame it's not gonna have a lounge like the nearby Hilton, that would then become a " must stay "

They did a couple of days after I posted that. Very apologetic and offered a choice of properties to move the reservation to. I had a reservation for the new Crowne Plaza at the Albert Embankment anyway so added another night to that and have asked them to rebook for Spring which they were happy to do at the same rate (Spring date was well over £100 more) and they have offered to sort some wine on arrival.

Can't complain at that to be honest particularly as the only reason I had booked it was that I wanted to be nosy and it was very reasonably priced.
