About St Pancras Renaissance Hotel London

St. Pancras London, Autograph Collection, occupies the former Midland Grand Hotel of 1873 and hosts weddings of up to 280 guests across ten event rooms, all licensed for civil ceremonies.

St. Pancras London opened in 1873 as the Midland Grand Hotel, designed by Sir George Gilbert Scott beside St. Pancras station. It closed in 1935, stood empty for almost two decades and survived a 1960s demolition plan after a campaign led by Sir John Betjeman. The Grade I listed Gothic Revival building reopened as a hotel in 2011 and joined Marriott's Autograph Collection in 2025, with the station's Eurostar terminal directly below.

Ten event rooms are licensed for civil ceremonies, among them the Grand Staircase, the Ladies Smoking Room with its hand-painted ceiling and private terrace, the Gallery and Hansom Hall, whose glazed roof and Barlow Blue girders cover the old cobbled drive for hansom cabs. Weddings run from small private receptions to celebrations for up to 280 guests, supported by a dedicated Wedding Manager and in-house catering. Pre-wedding dinners, rehearsal dinners and ushers' brunches can be arranged, along with floral design, cakes, hair and make-up and photography through the hotel's suppliers. Guests can stay in the Chambers wing or Barlow House, dine at Booking Office 1869, The Hansom or the terrace, and use the spa built into the original steam kitchens.

From the Midland Grand to St. Pancras London

Sir George Gilbert Scott's Midland Grand Hotel opened beside St. Pancras station on 5 May 1873. It closed in 1935, stood empty for almost twenty years after British Rail left in 1985, and was saved from demolition in the 1960s after a campaign led by Sir John Betjeman. The hotel reopened on 5 May 2011 and became St. Pancras London, Autograph Collection, on 3 June 2025.
