Marriott Hotel London County Hall

Set right on the South Bank of the Thames, London Marriott Hotel County Hall puts you within a five-minute walk of Big Ben, the London Eye, and Westminster Abbey. And Waterloo Station is just 10 minutes on foot, making it a breeze to get around the city – and beyond.

Inside, expect a striking mix of old and new – original wood panelling, arched windows, and modern touches throughout. Rooms come with deluxe beds, marble bathrooms, and many show off postcard-worthy views of the river. There's also a 25-metre indoor pool and a high-spec gym if you're feeling active. For something more relaxed, the M Club Lounge offers all-day snacks and drinks in a comfy, exclusive setting.

Start your morning with an à la carte breakfast at Gillray’s and come back later for locally sourced steaks and one of over 100 gins. Afternoon Tea in The Library is a treat too – scones, sweets, and a stellar view of the river.

If you’re after location, comfort, and a touch of London glamour, County Hall ticks the lot. History, views, and all the mod cons – what more could you want for your city escape?
