Ruby Stella’s Big Debut

Step into Ruby Stella, and you’ll step into a world inspired by the great Charles Dickens and the dynamic spirit of Farringdon. This vibrant neighbourhood, once home to Dickens himself, played a key role in shaping his stories, particularly The Pickwick Papers. Known for its playful humour and sharp observations of Victorian society, the novel’s contrasts – between opulence and grit, whimsy and depth – are woven into every corner of Ruby Stella’s design.

The hotel’s interiors celebrate the art of storytelling, much like Dickens did. From textured leathers and rustic metal details to polished woods and warm fabrics, the design reflects the charm and contradictions of 19th-century London. Look closely, and you’ll find nods to Dickens’ world: whimsical quills and monocles, handcrafted elements inspired by Farringdon’s bookbinding legacy, and vintage touches that echo the area’s artisanal roots.

Ruby Stella isn’t just a place to stay – it’s a space to immerse yourself in history reimagined for the modern traveller. Whether you’re sipping cocktails in the bar or enjoying a quiet moment in your room, the spirit of Dickens and the creative energy of Farringdon are all around you, making every stay a story worth telling.
