The Dixon, Tower Bridge, a boutique style hotel part of Autograph Collection Hotels opened its doors in late 2018.

Taking center stage in the Tower Bridge neighborhood on Tooley Street, The Dixon, Tower Bridge, Autograph Collection is the new cultural hub for the capital's center of artistic activity.

Named after John Dixon Butler, the architect who originally constructed the building in 1905 as a Magistrates Court and police station, the hotel takes inspiration from the area's vibrant cultural heritage, while also capturing its new wave of creative cool.
The 193 rooms will redefine the traditional boutique hotel by seamlessly incorporating the local neighborhood's culture through an artful mix of heritage design.
