London Arts Events Showcased

By: Mark Shaw

The Concierge Club is a new kind of London Arts Events Club. Based in and around five hotels spread across the heart of London's City and West End, the Club has five venues for exhibitions, installations, cultural events and social activities and membership is open to anyone who enjoys the arts and culture.

The Concierge Club, which will be open to both guests and non-residents, aims to become one of London's leading arts clubs and will give people the chance to experience everything from live electro-pop in-house, to back-stage access to celebrity events such as London Fashion Week.

The first 1,000 members will get a one-year promotional membership for £180, and a free one-night stay at The Jones or Nest, while a regular annual membership is £240.

At the centre of the Concierge Club is a new cultural events programme curated especially for the enjoyment of its members. The Jones, a restored Edwardian baroque property, has a famous theatre at the back of the hotel, once frequented by Edward VII and his actress mistress Lillie Langtry. With the Concierge Club, members have the chance to experience "canapé-style cultural grazing", with three theatrical performances an hour, to give them "a cultural injection with time to spare". The Jones opens in September 2008 and will play host to nightly music, performance and literary events from the hottest new artists in London.

Members of the Concierge Club go straight to the front of the queues for these London Events whilst receiving priority access, promotions and entry to special events hosted by Guest Hotels growing list of partners including the ICA, the V&A and the Tate. With still more collaborators signing up each day, their partnerships range from the independent to the institutional and make up an exclusive and unique community of the brightest and the best of creative London.

If you are looking to invest in property then you should consider owning a luxury hotel room and literally earn money while others sleep. With Guest Hotels, you can own a room at one of the five hotels and reap the rewards of a guaranteed 6% first year return, capital appreciation and the opportunity to stay there free up to 52 nights a year.

The first two arts club hotels, the Jones and the Nest, will open this summer in Bayswater, west London, followed by three more next year. The Jones will have 176 rooms and a French restaurant run by Olivier Peyton. The second Bayswater property, the 157-room Nest, is housed in a row of converted Victorian stucco-fronted buildings and will feature continually changing photography exhibitions. In keeping with the Concierge Club's "experiential culture", The Chiswell, a 200-room hotel in the City, will host a fast-changing programme of dance, theatre and opera, and is set to open in 2009. The three hotels join Guesthouse West, the first Guest Invest property to open, and Blakes, which became part of the collection in 2007.
