The plan by the Cameron Guest House Group (CGHG) to convert offices at 34-8 York Place into a cheap hotel have been withdrawn (see Breaking news, 1.5.10).
No reason was given by the firm's agent, but past form suggests CGHG will return with a revised plan for the Grade-A listed property before too long.
The proposal had drawn criticism from some quarters over fears that what appeared to be budget holiday accommodation would in fact be used as some form of hostel.
