In the heart of London’s creative quarter, where street art meets start‑ups and cocktail bars spill onto Old Street, stands one of Shoreditch’s most characterful hotels: The Courthouse Hotel Shoreditch.
Set inside a Grade II‑listed former magistrates’ court and police station, the building’s history is woven into every corner from the preserved courtroom features to the atmospheric bar tucked inside the old holding cells. It’s a rare blend of heritage and contemporary design, and one that gives the hotel its unmistakable personality.
Located at 335–337 Old Street, the hotel sits moments from Shoreditch High Street, Hoxton, and some of London’s most exciting restaurants, galleries and nightlife. The area’s energy contrasts beautifully with the hotel’s calm, polished interiors, where Baroque architectural details meet modern art, soft lighting and a playful, slightly rebellious theme that nods to the building’s past.
With 86 rooms and 42 suites, each individually designed. Space is a luxury in this part of London, and the rooms deliver it in abundance. High ceilings, bespoke furniture, plush fabrics and a palette that balances contemporary cool with warm, tactile comfort.
Fully equipped with air‑conditioning, flatscreen TVs, coffee facilities, robes, and modern en‑suite bathrooms. Bathrooms are sleek and spacious, with walk‑in showers, large mirrors and high‑quality toiletries that elevate the experience. Suites add generous living areas, city views and design flourishes that make them feel more like private apartments than hotel rooms.
Food and drink are central to the hotel’s identity. Judge & Jury, the main restaurant, sits within the old courtroom, a dramatic setting softened by contemporary décor and warm lighting. The menu leans into modern British and European dishes, served with flair.
The Jailhouse Bar, set inside the former police cells, is one of Shoreditch’s most atmospheric drinking spots. Original features remain intact, creating a moody, intimate backdrop for cocktails.
Above it all sits the Upper 5th Roof Terrace, a stylish open‑air bar with skyline views – a favourite for summer evenings and private events.
Guests have access to a pool, fitness centre, and leisure facilities, making it a strong choice for business travellers who want downtime built into their stay.
The hotel also offers conference rooms and event spaces including its own private cinema and a bowling alley all of which are perfect for meetings, launches or private gatherings.
Step outside and you’re in one of London’s most vibrant neighbourhoods. Within minutes you’ll find street markets, independent boutiques, galleries, cocktail bars, and restaurants. Its a rare mix of history, style and playful luxury, a stay that feels distinctly, delightfully Shoreditch.
