Groom's residence?

[NickiP]

Could anyone with access to Ancestry possibly help with the groom's residence on this marriage please?

It looks like Arundel [something], Arundel Street, to me but can't work out the something.:confused:

Many thanks

Could it be Arundel Hotel? There does seem to have been a place of that name on Arundel Street:

I think it's Arundel Hotel, Arundel Street, (Strand).

The banns entry for the wedding shows the groom as being 'otp' so he should have been resident for three weeks (the banns were read 13, 20 and 27 Aug and have to be read for three consecutive Sundays during the three months before the wedding). It sounds like just the right sort of establishment! (from Wikipedia):

The Arundel Hotel stood at the south end of the street (Arundel St) on the western side at the end of the nineteenth century and start of the twentieth. It billed itself as "the largest private hotel in London", providing rooms to professional men, officers, and Americans and their families, "for whom is especially provided a free "water cooler". It was rebuilt in the late nineteenth century and the bay front that faced Victoria Embankment was replaced with a gothic design. The hotel existed until at least the mid-twentieth century.

Many thanks for all the replies, it's much appreciated.

I suppose I can just about see Hotel there but it's very badly written. That said, as Merry posted, it definitely sounds the sort of place he may have been living. I shall go and update my tree.:)

Many thanks.
