London calling

Whether you're visiting London on holiday or you're a Londoner who just fancies being a tourist in your own city, finding a hotel that's close to the action but not quite in the thick of it is key to a successful stay.

The Park Plaza in Victoria is perfect for a weekend exploring the city; just around the corner from Victoria Station and down the road from hit musical Wicked, the hotel buzzes with families, tour groups and business-types.

Indulge in some serious people-watching over cocktails in the stylish bar, then sit down to dinner at JB's Restaurant. Here you can enjoy the classic French/British menu which contains everything from oysters and duck breast salad to the best steak and chips in London, followed by coconut cheesecake or white chocolate parfait - decadent and delicious!
