Eight fire engines and around forty firefighters have been tackling a fire at the Hilton Hotel on Park Lane. Around 1,500 people were evacuated from the hotel and all were accounted for. The fire is thought to have started in a kitchen in the basement of the hotel. Ducting between the basement and the fourth floor was damaged.

The Brigade was called at 1842 and the fire was under control at 2301. Fire engines from Soho, Knightsbridge, Chelsea, Kensington and Westminster attended.


The basement is home to Trader Vic's. Trying to find out more.
