Park Plaza Waterloo, Westminster Bridge or Riverbank?

Hi,

Of the three, which is preferable with VIP status?

TIA

I can only comment on Westminster Bridge. It’s a decent hotel with nice pool and spa facilities. My VIP status granted me free breakfast and access to a very nice Exec Lounge with views to Big Ben. I also received a multiple upgrade to a studio suite and late check out.

County Hall (literally across the road) is usually cheaper than Westminster, gives upgrades to Executive Studio (separate sofa area) but has no lounge so not as good for perks overall

I’d say Westminster Bridge, Riverbank, Waterloo in that order. I’d only pay a quite modest premium for Westminster over Riverbank but bear in mind I like walking so pay more if you don’t as Riverbank is a little further from tube and likely sightseeing. Also bear in mind my opinions are all from pre devaluation.

BTW Westminster Bridge is also a pilot and crew stop over hotel.

is that a bad thing in terms of people perhaps arriving late, leaving early?

or a good thing in that it shows its a semi-decent hotel?

Good thing. Long haul crew will only stay in decent hotels.
