The Trafalgar St. James London, Curio Collection by Hilton was constructed amid the intellectual and philosophical movement that dominated Europe in the 18th century.

The Trafalgar St. James London, Curio Collection by Hilton, was once home to a shipping business called the Cunard Steamship Company during the 18th century. Many years later, the building became a popular set for several noteworthy films and television shows. It appeared in The Ipcress File (1965), as well as in Tom Cruise’s film Edge of Tomorrow (2014). The hotel’s boardroom was even used as M’s office in Dr. No (1962). The Trafalgar St. James London also appeared in the beloved television series, Doctor Who, in 2013. The Trafalgar Hotel was subsequently opened in August 2000 with a distinctive purple color scheme. Victoria and David Beckham visited that year at Christmas, and The Rolling Stones came the following year to spend time in the new roof garden. After an extensive renovation in 2017, The Trafalgar St. James London was handpicked to become a Hilton’s first Curio Collection hotel in the United Kingdom. Blending bold, innovative designs with Hilton’s excellent hospitality standards, The Trafalgar St. James London, Curio Collection by Hilton, has set the bar for upscale hotels in the area.
