19-21, Great Marlborough Street W1, Grade II listed courthouse in Soho, England

The building at Great Marlborough Street combines classical architecture with modern adaptations, featuring original Robert Adams fireplaces and oak flooring throughout its structure.

The second-oldest magistrates court in the United Kingdom operated from the late 18th century until 1998, handling cases involving Oscar Wilde and Christine Keeler.

Charles Dickens reported on numerous cases from this courthouse in 1835 while working as a journalist for the Morning Chronicle newspaper.

Located three minutes from Oxford Circus tube station, the building now functions as a hotel with 116 rooms next to the London Palladium Theatre.

The former judges' quarters have been converted into luxury suites while maintaining the original courtroom architecture and historical elements.
