"Awesome property, great staff and roomy comfortable accommodations. Breakfast is awesome. On-site restaurant (Kerriges) is superb. Quiet location close to shopping, shows and the Underground. Bring a device that can Cast your content to TV so you don't have to try to find something to watch on the confusing TV/Media System, the channel guide is awful. The WiFi is lightning fast and great for streaming."

Top London South Bank University Hotel Reviews

Park Plaza London Riverbank

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed with my grown up son & we need 2 beds , so we reserved a room with 2 beds . The beds & pillows were really good , but unfortunately, the single beds were too small for us !"

The Tower Hotel, by Thistle

4/10 Poor

"I can’t fault this hotel for the location - it’s the reason we have stayed here twice this year. But honestly, the whole hotel needs ripping out and starting again to bring it up to date. There are limited plugs in all rooms. None of them have any plugs near the bed. There are NO USB sockets anywhere. There is no aircon, and the air cooling system fails when it gets too hot. The showers are weak and badly positioned. There is (poor quality) handwash in the bathrooms, but no complimentary toiletries or basic vanity kits. There are, however, plenty of towels in each room and of a good size. The beds are comfortable. If you want to blow dry your hair, you can only see yourself in the dressing mirror if you’re over 6ft tall. The hotel is currently refurbing the lobby reception area, and the noise of works throughout the day is hugely disruptive in rooms, even 3 floors above. If you’re jet lagged or wanting a lie in, sleep is the last thing you’ll get. I also have security concerns as anyone can enter the hotel lifts and access any floor of the hotel, no room keys are required to operate them."

Point A London Waterloo

10/10 Excellent

"Room was clean and had everything we needed for a one night in London. It is right next to Lamberth North tube station so was super easy to jump on the tube and get about. We only ever needed to travel in zone 1. Loads of places are walkable if you wanted to walk into the main stops. Staff were super friendly and will be choosing this hotel again."

Park Plaza London Westminster Bridge

10/10 Excellent

"We had a good stay at the Park Plaza for 9 nights. The location is terrific, short walk to Uber Boat, Westminster tube and Waterloo train station. Great views of Big Ben and Parliment buildings. The room was comfortable and clean. Primo Bar, Ichi, and Illy Cafe all had great service and food. Disappointed with Brasserie Joel, food was over cooked and the staff were not friendly at all. They have "prawns" as an appetizer but they were more like salad shrimp. The filet was boring and chewy. This restaurant was not busy and I see why. The hotel is worth the money to stay there."
