LONDON, Ont. — The Hard Rock Hotel in London, Ont. is nearing completion and now accepting reservations. The Hard Rock Hotel is part of Canada’s largest indoor entertainment complex, including The Factory, and sits in the heart of London, Ont.’s Old East Village. Just minutes away from the Western Fair District and a short drive from downtown, the hotel is positioned in Canada’s only UNESCO City of Music, making it a must-visit entertainment destination.
The hotel will feature 164 guestrooms and suites. Family-style guestrooms feature separate rooms with bunk beds, while the Rock Star Suite features a living area and bar, exclusive music-inspired touches, and high-end amenities such as a private kitchenette.
“Signing the agreement for the creation of Hard Rock Hotel London, Ont. marked the start of what has proven to be an extraordinary partnership between Dora Hotel Company, Hard Rock International, The Cribbage Group, and the city of London,” says Tim Dora, president of Dora Hotel Company. “We are eager to bring to life the unparalleled energy of Hard Rock. There is no doubt this hotel will be a game changer for Canadians and those travelling from around the globe for Ontario for this unforgettable Hard Rock Hotel experience.”
Guests will discover innovative culinary and beverage concepts, including GMT-5 bar, Sessions Restaurant & Bar, and a speakeasy named after the year the Kellogg’s Factory opened – 1913. The mixologist driven bar will feature cereal infused libations as an ode to the venue’s history.
Hard Rock and Dora Hotel Company collaborated with BBB Architects and Interiors to create a music-infused sensory experience for the guests at the hotel. Upon arrival, a 32-foot-high sculptural metallic guitar, handcrafted in London, Ont., marks the entrance for a grand porte-cohere. The grand lobby combines elements of the historic Kellogg brick building with new stone tile, multiple skylights, and displays of significant musical memorabilia themed to London’s history and Canada’s contribution to the world music scene.
