The Clermont, Victoria Formerly: The Grosvenor Hotel

Grand hotel with more than 300 rooms, originally opened in 1862, now a historic Grade II listed railway hotel (in Victoria station). In short, as close to Victoria station (Tube and Overground) as it gets. A bit traffic-heavy, the area is nevertheless convenient for accessing many London areas, though it's not central-central. You can walk to Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey and the Palace of Westminster (Houses of Parliament), but you're more likely to take a bus. Formerly a Thistle hotel, then a Guoman (part of Thistle-owning glh group: Great London Hospitality). In 2021 the name changed from the Grosvenor to the Clermont.
