Church Street Hotel, London

Introduction: Occupying a location on the south side of the River Thames and close to busy high street shopping is the Church Street Hotel London. Well placed for the Kennington Oval (1.3 miles) where many big cricket games are played. This particular part of SE5 is known as Camberwell Green ( a small recreation green area with children's playground) and going north along Camberwell Road and Walworth Road from this point finds an endless number of shops, bars and restaurants. This area if very multicultural and this reflects in the type of shops and restaurants which cater to many different tastes and nationalities. Fair to say this part of London is somewhat downmarket compared to some of the glitzy central London locations but still has a lot to offer. 1.5 miles at the northern end of Walworth Road is an area known as Elephant and Castle, a very busy major road junction but also another shopping centre with entertainment facilities along with the shopping. Closer to the hotel at just over half a mile is Burgess Park, a large open area with some woodland and sports facilities for football and tennis. There are good local transport options with many bus routes running close to the hotel. Other local attractions include the South London Art Gallery (0.4 miles) and the Brixton Academy Music Venue (1.2 miles), Brockwell Park Lido (1.8 miles). Convenient for Kings College Hospital which is 1.1 miles away. 20 minutes from Waterloo Station.
