Radisson Blu Edwardian New Providence Wharf

Stylish riverside comfort near London’s top venues

Modern and elegant, the Radisson Blu Edwardian New Providence Wharf offers a peaceful retreat with a luxury twist. Tucked along the Thames in East London’s business district, this 4-star hotel blends upscale décor with thoughtful amenities. Think Italian marble bathrooms, Egyptian cotton bedding, and floor-to-ceiling river views—all within easy reach of the O2 Arena and ExCeL London via a short DLR journey.

Why Concert-goers love it

With Blackwall and East India DLR stations just a 10-minute walk away, getting to and from shows is simple—even late at night. The hotel’s location offers a quieter, more relaxed vibe than central London, perfect for winding down after a high-energy gig. Flexible check-in from 3pm and a soothing on-site spa help make recovery even easier. Plus, the free high-speed WiFi and in-room entertainment (with up to 300 channels) make post-show streaming or replays a breeze.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends looking to crash in style after a night out
• Solo travelers ticking off a dream concert
• Couples turning a gig into a romantic weekend
• Fans seeking quiet luxury after loud live sets
• Budget-conscious music fans who value comfort and location without splurging on central prices

Food and Drink Options

The on-site restaurant, Scoff and Banter Canary Wharf, serves up Modern European dishes with locally sourced ingredients. There’s also a sleek riverside bar and terrace—ideal for a pre-show bite or post-gig unwind. While 24/7 room service isn't listed, the restaurant and bar offer extended hours. Breakfast is available for late risers recovering from a night out.

Nightlife Options

Though there’s no live music on-site, you’re a quick DLR ride from London's hottest venues. Prefer to stay local? The hotel bar offers a relaxed atmosphere with craft cocktails and river views. Nearby Canary Wharf also features a mix of upscale bars, lounges, and pubs just a short walk away.

What People Say

Guests rave about the peaceful riverside location, luxurious rooms, and the spa’s calming vibe—especially the steam room and sauna. Many applaud the friendly, professional staff, and the easy access to both the O2 and ExCeL via public transport earns consistent praise. The hotel is often described as a hidden gem in East London.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that the hotel is a bit removed from central London nightlife, so it's ideal if you're headed to venues in East London rather than the West End. The 10-minute walk to the DLR might feel long after a late concert, especially in bad weather—so pack an umbrella just in case.

The Bottom Line

If you're looking for riverside luxury, spa vibes, and stress-free access to East London’s biggest gigs, Radisson Blu Edwardian New Providence Wharf is a top-tier pick for concert-goers.
