Haunted Hotels in The UK

Whether you believe, disbelieve, or are open to persuasion, there’s no doubting that Britain is arguably the most “haunted” country of all. As such, Nights In The Past though it would be interesting to research and feature those period hotels and inns where ghosts and other paranormal events have been recorded. Naturally, we can’t be held responsible for a lack of ‘ghostly activity’ should you choose to stay in any of the properties, but the section does at least highlight many more olde worlde historic places to stay throughout the UK.

Please note that Nights In The Past is primarily a guide to historic accommodation in England, Scotland, Wales, France, Italy and other parts of Western Europe. For these, please see the navigation bar to the left.

Georgian House Hotel

Owned by the same family since being built in the mid 1880’s, Georgian House is made up of three properties of which one is said to be the site of numerous ghostly occurrences: strange gusts of cold air in summertime, the sound of children playing, apparitions and more curious phenomena are all said to have been experienced by staff and guests alike over the years. Thankfully, though, no one seems to have found the experience disagreeable.

Situated in the western end of central London, the hotel is close to Victoria station and ideally positioned for those who prefer a quieter location from which to explore the nearby hustle and bustle. Online booking for the Georgian House can be made with Booking.com, Expedia and Lastminute.com

The Langham

Undoubtedly one of the most famous hotels in the world, since being constructed in 1865 the Langham has welcomed more than its fair share of historical glitterati. Indeed, it seems that some of them didn’t want to leave given that some say Napoleon III still haunts the place.

But for those really seeking to maximise their chances of experiencing the paranormal, try room number 333 – spooky lights and figures dressed in Victorian clothing have been witnessed.

For internet rates and more information about The Langham visit the hotel’s entries on Expedia and Lastminute.com

Grange Blooms Hotel

Close to the British Museum in fashionable Bloomsbury, this 18th century period boutique-style townhouse hotel is said to be haunted by a man keen upon reading books.

However, any guests failing to encounter the bibliophile spirit will at least be staying in a splendid location for exploring the capital - the sights of central London and the West End are but a short walk away.

For more information and online reservations, visit Booking.com or the website of the Grange Blooms Hotel

The Cadogan Hotel

Without doubt one of London’s most famous hotels, The Cadogan is reputedly still the home of actress Lillie Langtry who lived here between 1892 and 1897.

Curiously, those who claim to have seen her do so only at times when the building is comparatively quiet, and most often around Christmas time in the restaurant area. Built in the latter half of the 19th century, the Cadogan is situated on Sloane Street between Knightsbridge and Chelsea. Oscar Wilde - another famous former resident - was arrested here in 1895.

For more information, availability and online booking, try the hotel’s pages at Lastminute.com and LateRooms
