Park Plaza London Westminster Bridge
Breakfast is distinctly average to bellow. Not terrible, not something you’d pay for if you’re not here for work like I was.

Strand Palace Hotel
Great location, friendly and helpful staff. Yes the lifts are snug, indeed the rooms too, but in your the heart of London, so understandable and good value at the price point for the sq.footage - go across the road to the Savoy and do the math on the cost per sq.foot if you disagree!! lol
