Sun Street Hotel Shoreditch
London, United Kingdom · Independent · Accessible Luxury
Six Georgian houses at 5-15 Sun Street, conceived by George Dance the Younger, now hold a 41-room hotel that opened on 10 October 2022. Most of the rooms sit in the old terrace. The rest are in a new wing, part of One Crown Place, the towers Kohn Pedersen Fox designed after MTD Group bought the site from UBS in 2013. Bowler James Brindley did the interiors. Shoreditch is one way down the street. The City is the other. Liverpool Street is the walk.

About Sun Street Hotel Shoreditch
- Seven of the 41 keys opened as suites. Bespoke Hotels is the operator. MTD appointed the company in 2018, four years before the doors opened.
- Hackney's planning committee approved One Crown Place unanimously in 2015. Apartments and offices wrap the restored terrace around a courtyard.
- The hotel keeps a summer sun deck for guests, and the courtyard sits between Dance's terrace and the new towers.
History
The front of Sun Street Hotel is six Georgian houses, 5-15 Sun Street, EC2A 2EP, credited to George Dance the Younger, who died in 1825, so the terrace belongs to his lifetime rather than to a later rebuild.
MTD Group, of Kuala Lumpur, bought the One Crown Place site in June 2013 from Sun Street Properties, a UBS company. Hackney approved the redevelopment in 2015. Kohn Pedersen Fox designed the new towers. The hotel, 41 rooms with seven suites, opened on 10 October 2022 inside the restored terrace and a new extension, operated by Bespoke Hotels. Bowler James Brindley designed the guest rooms and the public rooms. At opening, a 40-cover restaurant was announced with chef Stuart Cauldwell.
The setting
5-15 Sun Street is the border the hotel claims for itself: City formality one way, Shoreditch the other, a short walk north of Liverpool Street station. The borough that granted planning was Hackney. The street is not Brick Lane and not Hoxton Square, though both are a longer walk north.
