曼妙的藝術傳奇

Spectacular Artistic Legend

酒店建于1973年，但皮卡迪利大街116號的傳奇遠不僅于此。說起建筑的歷史，可以追溯到1850年，一開始它是國會議員Hope先生的私人宅邸，Hope先生藝術品位不凡，在自己的宅邸中收藏了大量大師級藝術品，據說連大文豪狄更斯都羨慕不已。這里也一度躋身歐洲最好的私人藝術收藏之家的行列。后來，Hope先生的后代將宅邸賣給了當時時尚年輕的雅典娜俱樂部。雅典娜俱樂部與同時期維多利亞時代的紳士俱樂部有所不同，上門的多是國會議員，“雅典娜”這個詞源自希臘智慧女神雅典娜，也常被翻譯成“圖書館”，這里在當時就受到與文學、科學和藝術有關的紳士的特別青睞。

后來隨著俱樂部的解散，這座宅邸變成了豪華的裝飾藝術公寓。四十年后，雅典娜和相鄰的維多利亞式聯(lián)排別墅被英國娛樂集團The Rank收購。這家娛樂公司把公寓改建成酒店，以便讓到倫敦工作室拍片的大明星們可以在此下榻。從此以后，雅典娜酒店便與好萊塢明星們結下了不解之緣。伊麗莎白·泰勒、羅素·克洛、樂隊Take That、史蒂文·斯皮爾伯格都是這里的?？汀?/p>

The prestigious address of 116 Piccadilly has seen its fair share of inhabitants over the years. Back in 1850， it started life as Hope House， the elegant private abode of MP Henry Hope. Once the home of one of Europe's finest private art collections， the Hope House was said to have attracted the attention of Charles Dickens， who noted its extravagant interiors. Later， Mr Hope's daughter sold Hope House to the fashionable Junior Athenaeum Club. Gentlemen's clubs were all the rage in the Victorian era， and the Junior Athenaeum surged in popularity. Among the MPs and Lords that passed through its doors， the club was particularly favoured by gentlemen connected with literature， science and art. The word 'Athenaeum' loosely translates as 'library' and is derived from the Greek name Athena， the goddess of wisdom. As the club disbanded， the building was transformed into a luxurious Art Deco apartment block. Four decades later， the Athenaeum and its neighbouring Victorian townhouses were snapped up by British entertainment group The Rank Organisation. The company renovated the apartments into an iconic hotel to accommodate its movie stars whenever they were filming at London's movie studios. Elizabeth Taylor， Russell Crowe， Take That， Steven Spielberg are all frequent visitors here.
