SITTING on some former royal grounds, Hyatt Regency Blackfriars is bang in the middle of London.

Here is everything you need to know about the hotel from room rates to restaurants.

Where is the Hyatt Regency Blackfriars?

The Hyatt Regency Blackfriars hotel is in a great location.

It’s opposite Blackfriars train station and minutes away from St Paul’s Cathedral, this very grand looking Grade II-listed five-star hotel  is fit for a King.

The property sits on the former grounds of King Henry VIII’s Bridewell Palace, which was built around 1515.

What are the rooms like?

All the 205 rooms and suites have luxury mattresses, air conditioning, decent WiFi and a fridge.

Mollie’s Motel & Diner, Oxfordshire hotel review

HOL YES

The lesser-known hotel trick to find bargain stays in popular tourist hotspots

We stayed in a club twin room on the fifth floor.

It was a good size, especially for London, with super-sized single beds and a small sitting area.

The bathroom was equally lovely, with a good shower and luxurious toiletries.  

Rooms from £228 per night and suites from £420. See hyatt.com.

What is there to eat and drink at the hotel?

On site there are two restaurants and a lounge which serves light meals, coffee and pastries as well as a Latin American-inspired cocktail bar set in the former prison vaults.  

We had the cocktails and dinner of dreams in the Chinese Cricket Club.

It serves modern Chinese cuisine and was recently awarded two AA Rosettes.

We feasted from the Rose Set Menu which is £78pp and includes dim sum, smoked Peking duck and stir-fried lobster.

What else is there to do at the hotel?

Although the hotel is five-star, it has a chilled, easy-going vibe so you feel relaxed  from the moment you arrive.

The location is also ideal: It’s super-close to the City, plus we walked to the South Bank in ten minutes and Covent Garden in just 15 minutes.

Is the hotel family-friendly?

The hotel has options including the Family Room, which has two connecting King bedrooms and two bathrooms, sleeping up to five people.

Kids also get their own bathrobes and slippers, plush toys and activity books.

Is there access for guests with disabilities?

There are accessible rooms as well as accessible access to the public areas including bathrooms and the restaurant.
