The Hospital Club was founded by Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen through his investment company Vulcan Inc. and musician David A. Stewart (formerly of the band Eurythmics), producer and Founder of Weapons of Mass Entertainment.[1]
Food hygiene ratings
In 2014, the club received a zero rating for food hygiene after an inspection found mouse droppings in kitchens prompting worries of cross-contamination.[2][3]
In 2015, The Hospital Club received a five star rating by the Foods Standard Agency.[4]
History of the building
As its name suggests, for many years the building was home to St Paul's Hospital, first established in 1749.
