Our take
I would pick citizenM London Bankside for a stylish and functional base when the plan is to spend the day out in London. The 24/7 canteen and a welcome for late arrivals suit unpredictable schedules, and the bar gives the stay some social life. If you expect extensive in-room services or a traditional hotel experience, the streamlined approach may feel thin, but for a modern, connected stay it makes sense.
- Take advantage of the 24/7 canteen for late-night snacks or early breakfasts.
- Explore the Bankside area on foot; the Tate Modern is just a short walk away.
- Use the free Wi-Fi to plan your day or stay connected with ease.
Why we love it

Guests rate it 9.0 across more than 2,300 reviews, which says the simple formula is executed well.
