Hey, guess what happened at the Chiltern Firehouse! A fire broke out there on Valentine’s Day. It was a fancy London hotel, where they even had a Bafta party planned.

The fire caused pretty bad damage as burning wood fell off the hotel’s pizza oven, starting the fire between floors. This caused it spread through the ducting system.

The ground and second floors had some damage, but the third floor and roof were completely destroyed. About 100 people had to leave. Everyone got out of the hotel safely.

Netflix moved their party to a different hotel in Mayfair’s Grosvenor Square. Firefighters used cranes to put out the flames. The building used to be Manchester Square Fire Station, making it historically important.

The firefighters stopped the fire from spreading, making it very lucky that nearby buildings were not affected. Around 125 firefighters came, using 20 fire engines to battle the blaze. Assistant Commissioner Paul McCourt praised the crews, acknowledging that they worked really hard for hours.
