Our take
I recommend LSE Bankside House to travellers who care more about location and a free breakfast than about hotel service. It is a casual, budget-friendly residence with simple air-conditioned rooms, free Wi-Fi, a bar, a seasonal restaurant and a TV lounge, a short walk from Tate Modern. Rated 8 by more than 1,200 guests, it is a sound base for the South Bank; anyone wanting a pool, a spa or room service should look elsewhere.
- If you're driving, be aware that parking is available but comes with an additional charge.
- Take advantage of the free breakfast to fuel up before a day of sightseeing.
- Walk to the Tate Modern in just a few minutes to enjoy first-rate art right on your doorstep.

Why guests love itLSE Bankside House is a casual, budget-friendly residence with simple rooms, and its free breakfast and short walk to Tate Modern are the two points I would highlight for families. Rooms are air-conditioned and Wi-Fi is free. The bar, the seasonal restaurant and the TV lounge give older children somewhere to spend the evening. No family rooms or children's facilities are listed, so I would suggest it to a parent with a teenager rather than a family with toddlers.
