A new hub by Premier Inn at 5 Strand
Construction updates for the redevelopment of 5 Strand
Welcome to our information hub for the redevelopment of 5 Strand. Whitbread acquired the site in August 2022 and received planning permission in 2023 to transform the site to a hub by Premier Inn hotel.
This site is where you can stay up to date with the latest news and progress on construction. We’ll be sharing updates, newsletters, and key contact information as work continues on site.
Whitbread is an experienced hotel operator with many successful Premier Inn and hub by Premier Inn hotels across Westminster. 5 Strand will be our latest hotel in Central London, which we will own and operate for the long-term.
This development represents a significant investment that will bring high-quality, affordable accommodation to the heart of the West End. It will also deliver lasting benefits for the community and support the central London economy.
