Summary at a Glance

"Presented with a complex fire in a historically significant building, formerly Manchester Square Fire Station, firefighters successfully contained the fire to one property, preventing it from spreading to neighbouring properties.

LFB said in a statement today: "Twenty fire engines and around 125 firefighters spent Valentine’s Day tackling a fire at a hotel on Chiltern Street in Marylebone.

Now, the London Fire Brigade (LFB) has confirmed the fire was caused by burning wood that fell from a pizza oven and then ignited the void between the basement and the ground floor.

He added: "We know in fact one of those who rushed to the Chiltern Firehouse this evening had been stationed in the building when it was a fire station 30 years ago.

The fire and rescue service confirmed that the blaze began in the ground floor restaurant before spreading to the roof of the four-storey building.
