Thistle City Barbican
The Hotel is right near the Barbican Centre, just a short walk away, so you won’t have far to go if you end up sitting through half-a-dozen encores. And being right on the edge of the City, we’re a prime business meeting location and conference venue, too.
Thistle City Barbican Hotel is a perfect choice for a weekend break or a business meeting or corporate special event. Right near the Barbican Centre, concert goers have a few minute walk to return to the Hotel when the entertainment has ended.
Thistle City Barbican Hotel has 463 bedrooms for full-service quality overnight accommodations. The Hotel also has 13 meeting rooms in our dedicated conference facilities for business meetings, corporate special events and private dining and banquets. Thistle City Barbican is located off City Road and nearby St Pancras-EuroStar rail station is only a few minute cab drive away.
London can be a nightmare for parking but we have 10 on-site parking spaces available at an additional charge. Our courtesy shuttle service runs during peak hours from Monday to Thursday, and Friday morning, from the hotel to Moorgate, Barbican and Old Street tube stations on a drop-off to the station basis only.
Whether you are here for business or leisure, our Otium Health & Leisure Club has all you need to make your stay complete.

What's on?
Every year the average age of the audience in London's theatres plummets during Kids Week. Children from five up to 16 years old flock to an unrivalled selection of plays and musicals - either at greatly reduced prices or absolutely free!
On the first Thursday of every month, more than 80 of East London's art galleries stay open until 9pm. Heavyweight galleries such as the White Cube and the Barbican participate alongside smaller independent exhibition spaces, and many stage special events.
Held at London's Clapham Grand by the charitable organisation WEZIMBABWE, the annual Zimfest celebrates all things Zimbabwean. Expats and those just up for a good party come and enjoy the braai, sports, cold beer and excellent live music.
In addition to hosting the BBC Proms Monday lunchtime chamber concerts, in 2010 the Cadogan Hall hosts five Saturday Prom matinées. Starting with Bach's Brandenburg Concertos, they include a nod to birthday-boy Schumann and contemporary music.
Great orchestras from Prague and Berlin - both conducted by British Knights - top and tail the Proms' penultimate week. Two opera companies are also bound for the Royal Albert Hall: Glyndebourne in its annual visit and the Early Opera Company.
