About Nobu Shoreditch

Nobu Hotel Shoreditch is set to open in spring 2017. As with all Nobu hotels, the design reflects the city of origin as well as Nobu Hospitality's signature east-meets-west philosophy, drawing on the vibrant cultural and industrial context of Shoreditch. The hotel's five stories are fractured into angular, fair-faced concrete balconies which combined with cantilevered corten steel beams, form a seemingly frayed edge to the northern façade. Six protruding slab edges penetrate the glazing and accentuate the horizontality of the volume. An intimate landscaped garden at the site's eastern edge is articulated into terraces, seating and planting, and provides natural light and access to the generous lower triple height restaurant and bar space. www.nobuhotelshoreditch.com
