Staying local

By Rhiannon McGregor 11 : 11 : 2016 Leman Locke : Grzywinski+Pons : Cultural Programme

London – Leman Locke is a new apartment hotel that promises to connect guests with local culture.

  • The hotel offers a diverse cultural programme to help guests get to know the local area
  • Leman Locke’s emphasis is on building a community of like-minded travellers

With an abundance of soft furnishings and homely touches such as throw blankets, each of the 168 serviced apartments designed by Grzywinski+Pons has been created as a home-from-home.

Guests are invited to take part in Leman Locke’s specially curated cultural programme, which it describes as ‘designed to entertain, enlighten and bring the local and traveller community together in creative ways’. Visitors can arrange to take part in activities ranging from round-table discussions hosted by local business people to cocktail master classes.

Those who want to improve their health and wellbeing can also sign up for the wellness programme, which includes yoga, meditation, cooking and running. Under the blog section, the website offers editorial content that caters for both business travellers and tourists, with recommendations on the best local coffee shops as well as tips for a productive meeting.

The Big Picture

Spaces such as Leman Locke and northwest London’s The Collective are creating environments where people can enrich themselves through shared cultural experiences.
