Hotel Description

So I stayed at this place called “2 Bed 2 Bath Close to Big Ben” on Saint George Wharf – and honestly, the name pretty much tells you everything you need to know, though there’s actually way more to it than that. First thing that hits you when you walk out the door is you’re literally right on the Thames, like proper riverside living. The building itself is one of those sleek modern developments that’s sprung up along the South Bank, and while some people might find it a bit sterile, I actually loved the floor-to-ceiling windows and the fact that everything just… works.

Here’s what they don’t tell you in most descriptions – Saint George Wharf is perfectly positioned if you know London even a little bit. Yeah, you can see Big Ben (hence the name), but more importantly, you’re a quick walk to Vauxhall station which connects you to basically everywhere. The Victoria line gets you to Oxford Circus in about 15 minutes, and there’s the mainline trains if you need to get out of the city. What I really appreciated was how quiet it gets at night despite being so central – the Thames acts like this natural sound barrier, so you’re not dealing with constant traffic noise like you would staying near, say, Piccadilly or Leicester Square.

The apartment itself feels properly lived-in rather than hotel-sterile, which makes sense since it’s more of a serviced flat situation. Both bedrooms are actually decent sizes (not those tiny London boxes you sometimes get), and having two full bathrooms meant my travel partner and I weren’t doing that awkward morning shuffle. The kitchen’s got everything you’d need if you want to grab groceries from the Tesco down the road – though honestly, with Borough Market just across the river and all the South Bank restaurants within walking distance, I barely used it except for morning coffee. One small thing that bugged me was the wifi could be a bit patchy in the back bedroom, but nothing major. Oh, and if you’re driving, parking around there is expensive but doable – there’s a decent-sized Sainsbury’s with parking about ten minutes away where you can stock up and leave the car for a bit. The whole area’s got this slightly residential feel despite being so close to everything touristy, which I mean… that’s exactly what you want, right? You get the convenience without feeling like you’re staying in the middle of a theme park.
