Hotels with Parking near Bank and Monument
Nine hotels near Bank and Monument stations carry the parking label on our list, but only four of their descriptions actually mention parking: The Tower Hotel, by Thistle, DoubleTree by Hilton London - Tower of London, Premier Inn London Bank (Tower) and hub by Premier Inn London City Bank. For the other five, including Hilton London Bankside and The Lalit London, I could not confirm parking from the listing, so ask before you book. Driving in the City of London means the Congestion Charge zone, narrow streets and heavy weekday traffic around Bank junction, so a confirmed space matters more than usual.
Bank and Monument sit at the core of the City of London, among the Bank of England, the Royal Exchange and the Monument to the Great Fire of 1666. The Tower of London and Tower Bridge lie to the east, London Bridge leads south to Borough Market, and the streets around Bank junction are crowded on weekdays and much calmer at weekends.
Where to stay
Four Listings That Confirm Parking
A hotel with parking near Bank and Monument suits travellers who arrive by car and want to leave it for the whole stay, since the Underground, buses, Thameslink and the riverside paths cover the rest of London. I would not drive around the City for sightseeing. My advice is to book a hotel whose listing confirms parking, reserve the space, and plan your arrival outside the weekday rush around Bank junction.
The Tower Hotel, by Thistle is the most reviewed hotel on this list, with 12,158 reviews and a score of 8.4, and its listing names parking along with a fitness centre and family-friendly amenities. It sits on the Thames a short walk from Tower Bridge, with refined dining, two bars and afternoon tea. DoubleTree by Hilton London - Tower of London, also rated 8.4, from 6,106 reviews, provides parking too, is pet-friendly and has a gym, a restaurant and a rooftop bar with city views. I recommend these two to drivers who want a full-service hotel near the Tower of London.
For a simpler stay with the car, the two Premier Inn properties are the practical choices. Premier Inn London Bank (Tower), rated 8.4 from 1,780 reviews, is a short walk from London Bridge and lists parking alongside air conditioning, free Wi-Fi, a restaurant and a bar, with features for families and guests with accessibility needs. hub by Premier Inn London City Bank, a three-star hotel rated 8.8, has simple, colourful rooms, a cafe-bar, a restaurant and parking. My advice is to choose hub for a short business trip and Premier Inn London Bank (Tower) for a family arriving by car.
Five other hotels carry the parking label without their listing confirming it. Hilton London Bankside, a five-star hotel near Tate Modern rated 9.0, has an indoor pool and a sleek restaurant. The Lalit London, rated 8.8, occupies a historic building near Tower Bridge with two restaurants and a spa. Tower Suites by Blue Orchid Hotels is an all-suite hotel with kitchens and room service, Club Quarters Hotel London City has a steakhouse in a former bank vault, and LSE Bankside House is a budget option near Tate Modern. I would contact each of them to confirm a space before driving there.
Driving into the City has its own constraints. The Congestion Charge zone covers the area, weekday traffic around Bank junction is heavy, and several streets near the junction restrict through traffic during the day. Once the car is parked, the hotels near the Tower of London and London Bridge put the Underground, Thameslink and the Thames Path within walking distance. For that reason, I think the best plan is to park on arrival, leave the car for the whole stay, and explore Borough Market, St Paul's Cathedral and the Tower of London on foot.
A traveler's perspectiveIf I drove to the City, I would choose The Tower Hotel, by Thistle, whose listing confirms parking and which sits by the Thames near Tower Bridge. For a cheaper stay, I recommend hub by Premier Inn London City Bank, rated 8.8 with parking listed. In both cases, I would reserve the space ahead and leave the car parked for the whole stay.

With 12,158 reviews averaging 8.4, the four-star standard is well tested, though Bank and Monument stations are a longer walk than Tower Hill.

Simple, budget-friendly rooms with breakfast near Tate Modern
View hotel →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.
