Top hotels in Clapham
Strand Palace Hotel
Ideally located for our plans, walking distance to key locations in Londons theatre district in Covent Garden. Only slight issue was family room was not 2 double beds as advertised as anyone will know who has slept on a sofa bed, it’s not the same. Worked for one night. Would stay there again.

The Tower Hotel, by Thistle
The room was hot and we were told that hotel is ambient ac but they sent a portable cooling fan so that helped. View of Tower Bridhe from room is excellent! But the hotel is old with peeling paints on wood work and carpet looks old too. Staff is courteous and friendly. And it’s conveniently accessed ...
