Flagship Mercure hotel with a plastic-free guest experience in London's Bankside cultural district

Location

Mercure London Bankside sits in the cultural hub of Southwark, within a five-minute walk of the Tate Modern, Shakespeare's Globe, and Borough Market. The London Eye, Tower Bridge, and St. Paul's Cathedral are all reachable on foot from the hotel. Southwark and London Bridge tube stations are a 5-10 minute walk, providing access to the rest of the city.

Dining

Bistro Mirlot offers authentic French gastronomy and wines on-site, with a dining room filled with natural light. A complimentary breakfast buffet with hot and cold items, including fresh fruit and gluten-free options, is served each morning. The bar serves snacks, kids' meals, and special diet menus, and room service is available 24 hours with a breakfast menu.

Rooms & Amenities

The 144 rooms are soundproofed and air-cooled, with daily cleaning service ensuring high standards. Guests receive a complimentary welcome drink and attention to special occasions such as anniversaries, plus pets are allowed for an additional fee (pet bowls available). The 24-hour fitness center is open for workouts, and board games and puzzles are available for guests.

Business & Events

Four flexible meeting rooms accommodate up to 60 people for conferences, banquets, or corporate events. Facilities include fax/photocopying, express check-in/check-out, and invoice provided for business travelers. The staff assist with event planning, and the hotel's location in central London is convenient for business visits.

Sustainability & Services

Mercure London Bankside has eliminated all single-use plastic items from the guest experience, a rare commitment among city hotels. Complimentary water refill stations on each floor provide a convenient alternative to plastic bottles.
