A man has died after a stabbing in a hotel lobby in London.
Police were called at 10.45am yesterday to the The Wesley Euston Hotel and Conference Venue on Euston Street.
Staff were reported to have rushed to the man's aid, but he was pronounced dead around 45 minutes later.
The hotel is not far from London Euston station.
The Metropolitan Police said 11 people have been arrested on suspicion of murder.
Detectives said the man stabbed outside before staggering into the hotel.
The Mirror reports that the man had entered the building from the street before collapsing in the lobby.
The suspects were taken into custody at separate London police stations, the force said.
Scotland Yard said inquiries were taking place to identify the victim and inform his next of kin.
A post-mortem examination will take place in due course.
Officers remain at the scene and cordons are in place.
Ben Cawthra, who is at the scene, said: "Forensic work has been carried out and there are still a lot of police around – about a dozen.
"A large area has been cordoned off – around three streets around the hotel and some of the small businesses.
"The Wesley Euston Hotel is still in operation though and guests are coming in and out – although they have to show IDs to prove that they have a booking."
