Travelodge London Central City Road
Combining a low cost and an excellent location with family friendly rooms and comfortable beds, the Travelodge London Central City Road is ideal for families travelling on a budget. Lacking the charm of a more expensive boutique hotel, guests are nonetheless very well-served by the facilities on offer including free public wifi, flatscreen tv and a breakfast buffet. The Shard and Tower Bridge are only 20 minutes away on foot and the location is ideal for public transport with Liverpool Street and Old Street underground stations both only blocks away.
The Landmark London
From one extreme of the price range to the other, The Landmark London hotel is the epitome of elegance and opulence and has to be seen to be believed. The stunning atrium area has a high glass ceiling and indoor palm trees. The hotel offers sumptuous suites for families, impeccable service and access to impressive leisure facilities including a 15m swimming pool. There is also a babysitting service available if the parents wish to have a romantic meal to themselves.
Park Plaza, Westminster Bridge
A very popular hotel with families, the Park Plaza, Westminster Bridge, offers large studio rooms for families which include a kitchenette. There is a large swimming pool on site, as well as fitness facilities, and a minibar, fridge and flatscreen TV in each room. Better yet, there is evening entertainment provided at the hotel and there is also a babysitting service, which is sure to be appreciated by parents looking to unwind for a while. The central location allows for easy access to the Houses of Parliament, London Eye, Covent Garden and many other brilliant attractions.
The Clermont, Charing Cross
Consistently top-rated in online reviews, the Clermont at Charing Cross is renowned for its customer service and the attentiveness of the staff. It has large family rooms and blackout curtains for a better night’s sleep. This hotel is in the upper price range and this is reflected in the central location and the high quality of the rooms available. The rooms are well proportioned and have comfortable seating areas ideal for family socialising. There is free high speed internet provided throughout the hotel and high chairs are available for smaller children.
Millennium & Copthorne Hotels
Positioned on-site at the Stamford Bridge complex which houses Chelsea Football Club, these twin hotels are guaranteed to be popular with families who love the beautiful game. Free wifi throughout the hotel and free breakfast makes this a more affordable trip. This is one of the less expensive hotel choices on the list and it is perfect for anyone wanting to visit Battersea Park Zoo, which is very close by.
