Around 1500 people were evacuated from the prestigious Hilton Park Lane hotel in London after a fire started in a basement kitchen of the hotel.

Eight fire engines and around 40 firefighters, who were called at around 6.45pm on 1 July, managed to get the fire under control by 11.00pm.

Ducting between the basement and the fourth floor was damaged.

Earlier in the day, the hotel had hosted a music awards ceremony attended by stars including Liza Minelli and Annie Lennox, according to BBC news.

There were no fire-related injuries but London Ambulance Service confirmed that an elderly woman was treated after feeling unwell.
