History

Henry Wood House is located on the site of the Queen's Hall, the original location of the BBC Proms. The hall was bombed out in 1941. The mixed-use complex was named for Sir Henry Wood, longtime conductor of the Proms. It was designed by Eric A. Blade of Sir John Burnet, Tait, Wilson & Partners, [3] and was developed by the Crown Estate. [4] It was constructed from 1961-1963 by John Laing & Sons and opened in 1964, with offices of the BBC’s Research and Development division on the lower levels, and a hotel on the upper six levels, with the lobby and restaurant at the top. [5] It was originally the St. George's Hotel, managed by Trust_Houses_Ltd, and operated under that name until 2019, when the structure was renovated, and the hotel portion was renamed Treehouse Hotel London. [6]

The 95 [4] guest rooms of the hotel occupy floors 9 to 14. [7]

Treehouse Hotel is operated by SH Hotels & Resorts. [6] p [8]
