The independently-owned, 4 star London Bridge Hotel, which opened in Autumn '98, is in an ideal location on the edge of the City of London. The hotel site has a heritage which dates back to Roman Britain when the area was already at the centre of links with Europe - both in commerce and communications. Significant archaeological findings unearthed during redevelopment are now with the Museum of London. The site was most recently a former telephone exchange and its 1915 façade has been restored as a local landmark for the community. The hotel has 138 air conditioned bedrooms with a range of facilities which make this an attractive choice for business as well as leisure guests.
