I would choose it for a family trip spent exploring London on foot, with reasons to stay in the hotel afterwards. If you want a small hotel, I would compare other places.

Is it for you?

As a couple, I would look at Duplex Suite if the trip includes an evening on the terrace. If you only return to sleep, compare Superior instead.

I’d ask for
A Duplex Suite.
Worth knowing
Duplex is split over 2 floors: weigh that choice if you prefer all your space on the same level.

  1. Superior for a work trip

    For a work trip, look at Superior: store your laptop in the safe and use the iron and board before heading out. A desk keeps work off the bed.

  2. The spa without a stay

    Non-residents can buy 2 hours of spa access for £45, subject to availability. Treatments are charged separately, with appointments from 10am to 9pm.

  3. The car adds up

    Hotel parking starts at £70 a day, allocated on arrival without advance reservations. The hotel is inside the Congestion Charge zone; the driver is responsible for paying.

How we choose the hotels

The 5 things that matter, as guests tell them

What do Park Plaza London Westminster Bridge’s guests say? They write it in their reviews, even those who only came for a drink or dinner: we read every one and tell the 5 things that matter, from the location to the bill.

  1. Location

    Nearly every guest who mentions it is happy with it. For reviewers, the convenience is walking outside and starting a London visit immediately.

  2. Room

    7 in 10 guests who mention it are happy with it. Guests appreciate rooms and family space; there are also reports of unsatisfactory cleaning and bed arrangements different from those expected.

  3. Staff and service

    9 in 10 guests who mention it are happy with it. Many remember a personal welcome and help during their stay. Less happy reviews describe problems left unresolved.

  4. Breakfast

    Guests praise the buffet and staff; in October 2026, one guest on a third stay appreciates the service despite long queues.

  5. Price

    One guest finds the restaurants and café worth the cost; another reports paying for an upgrade without receiving the agreed bed arrangement.

500 guests said so on Google, from 26 August 2026 to 28 October 2026. Google reviews with text from 28 October 2024 to 28 October 2026; up to the latest 500. The other hotels are the ones weighed for a stay in London: for each we read its latest 500 Google reviews with text, or all of them where there are fewer, as of 29 October 2026. The score is the average of what they say, from 0 if they speak of it very badly to 10 if they speak of it very well. Where only a few mention something, the score stays close to the guide’s average: a handful of voices does not make a reputation.

The pool
