The building was constructed with a modernist steel and glass frontage that is seen in the opening footage of the Danger Man television series.

After refurbishment as a hotel, each room had a sleigh bed with a reproduction of the 1895 painting The Cloud by Prince Eugen bolted to the ceiling above,[4] and a pair of penis-shaped dumbbells.
