The hotel features over 1,000 sq. m./10,000 sq. ft. of high-specification event space across 11 adaptable meeting suites.

A private entrance, 6-metre-high ceilings, dramatic chandeliers, a sweeping marble staircase, and a mezzanine balcony all contribute to the ballroom’s sense of occasion and grandeur. The London Floor hosts a series of flexible meeting rooms, ideal for seminars, breakout sessions, and board-level meetings. Each space is equipped with advanced audiovisual technology to support professional delivery. Hilton London Bankside offers 292 elegant guest rooms and suites, designed for comfort and style. In April 2025, the hotel announced the addition of 76 new rooms, set to launch in Q1 2026. This expansion will further increase capacity for both individual and group stays. More details will be shared in due course.

Borough Market is rich with history, but it remains as relevant now as it has ever been. As London’s oldest food market, it has been serving the people of Southwark for 1,000 years, and that extraordinary heritage is an important part of its appeal. Borough Market is a riot of colours, smells and human engagement. The traders—a vast repository of culinary knowledge—are only too happy to share their expertise with shoppers, or else just pass the time of day. Their voices are added to by the chefs, food writers, campaigners and teachers who help make the Market’s cookery demonstrations, publications, public debates and educational programmes so highly regarded.

At 135m, Coca-Cola London Eye is the world’s largest cantilevered observation wheel. It was conceived and designed by Marks Barfield Architects and was launched in 2000. It has won over 85 awards for national and international tourism, outstanding architectural quality and engineering achievement. In fact, it has become the UK’s most popular paid for visitor attraction. A remarkable feat of design and engineering, the London Eye gave London’s skyline a dramatic new addition and has been offering guests a new perspective on London ever since. Originally, it was intended as a temporary structure, able to be dismantled and transported to a new location, and had planning permission for just five years. But with millions boarding it every year, its popularity has prompted its lease to be extended. Today it is a permanent fixture on the London skyline and a beautiful symbol of modern London. - See more at: https://www.londoneye.com/about-us/#sthash.yIVDkZWZ.dpuf
