The hotel is situated in on the banks of the River Thames in one of the most picturesque and historic areas of London, filled with beautiful Georgian architecture, old statues and archaic London charm. There are various significant attractions in the immediate vicinity of the hotel, most notably the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben, a must-see for all tourists. Westminster Abbey and Westminster Palace are equally nearby, offering further breathtaking views and historic interest. For more artistic attractions, there are the Tate Britain and National Gallery fairly close at hand, and St James’s Park is on-hand for a more relaxing and less city-like atmosphere. For travel further afield into the heart of London’s West End, the nearest tube station is Pimlico 0.6 KM away, slightly further than you'll find with some West End hotels. This gives access to the Victoria Line straight into central London. Travel across the UK and airport connections are available from the very nearby Victoria Train and Coach Stations.
A fitness studio is provided for all guests, containing state-of-the-art equipment for cardiovascular workouts as well as music and water coolers. Seven meeting rooms are available for business clients, holding up to 2900 guests, and there is also the SkyLounge situated at the top of the hotel. This is a great venue with stunning panoramic views of the city, and can be hired out for private dining and VIP parties.
There are a limited number of parking spaces provided that operate on a first come, first serve basis, with the exception of disabled badge holders.
The hotel has 460 rooms available as a single or double, although young children are welcome to stay in the room if sharing a bed with their parents.
