London Bridge Hotel Featured Article
The London Bridge Hotel is ideally situated just south of London Bridge itself, in the area known as Bankside, and right by Southwark Cathedral and the trendy Borough Market. The whole area is full of shops, bars and restaurants, and is a delight to explore. The quirky streets surrounding the hotel are full of character and - needless to say - they have been used by several film producers for motion pictures, including Bridget Jones's Diary and Entrapment. The hotel is only a short taxi ride away from London's West End with its theatres and shops.

The area in which the hotel is located first grew as a suburb of the Roman city of Londinium. It is directly south of London Bridge, and because theatres and other places of mediaeval entertainment were banned in The City by the Aldermen everything of this nature moved to the South Bank. Theatres such as The Globe and The Rose were established here, together with other forms of popular entertainment in Mediaeval and Tudor times. When the London Bridge Hotel was undergoing renovation a few years ago some major Roman artefacts like a Roman comb and mosaic flooring were discovered.
