WHEN Philip Lewis, general manager of the Randolph Hotel, invited me for a look round, I was delighted to accept.
Since October, construction work has been taking place at the ‘grand old lady’ in Beaumont Street, after it was taken over by American chain Graduate Hotels in 2019.
For months, builders inside have been working on the chain’s new designs, and a complete revamp of the bedrooms, the ballroom, the bars and dining areas is well under way.
