OVERVIEW OF THE STRAND PALACE HOTEL
Designed to an art deco style, the Strand Palace is a modern hotel despite having its fair share of history. Originally opened in 1909 as a grand hotel for clients passing through the Strand to the ever prominent Westminster district, it became popular with the American Armed forces during WWII and has since become a regular retreat for both leisure and business travellers frequenting the area.
Enjoying a convenient location on the Strand, minutes from the action of London's popular West End and numerous attractions, most of which have over the years become British Institutions, the hotel is just as primed for visitors of Westminster as it is for those craving the night life of Covent Garden and centrality to numerous theatres and Theatreland.
The hotel is located on the Strand in the West End near Covent Garden and close to many theatres, restaurants, bars and shops. The Strand Palace is conveniently located between Westminster and the West End, with the south bank only a short tube ride away and featuring London's newest must-see attraction, The London Eye. To its north lies Holborn and Russell Square, an area that is home to the British Museum, whilst to the east lies Tottenham Court Road, Trafalgar Square and the National Gallery.
There are many transport links providing easy access to the city's business district located eastwards of the hotel, making it a popular choice amongst business travellers.
