The Spotlight on The Hoxton Southwark

Industrial Chic Meets Music-Lover Convenience at The Hoxton Southwark

Modern, stylish and effortlessly cool, The Hoxton Southwark sits just a short walk from London’s South Bank, placing you close to iconic music venues and cultural hotspots. With its bold industrial design—think exposed concrete ceilings, bare brick walls, and Crittall-style windows—this hotel blends urban edge with warm hospitality. Add in thoughtful perks like free tea, coffee, WiFi, and even 1-hour international calls, and you've got a comfortable, connected stay in the heart of the city.

Why Concert-goers love it

The Hoxton Southwark is ideally located for music fans heading to legendary spots like the Southbank Centre, Royal Festival Hall, or even smaller venues tucked around the area. Its cool, laid-back vibe makes it easy to wind down after a show, and the late 12:00 check-out is a dream for those who’ve danced into the early hours. With London Bridge and Blackfriars stations nearby, late-night transport options are solid. Rooms are surprisingly quiet for a central location, so you can rest up post-concert without any unexpected noise.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a stylish base near nightlife
  • Solo travelers chasing a once-in-a-lifetime gig
  • Couples turning a concert into a romantic weekend
  • Fans who want a calm, design-savvy space to recharge
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who still want quality

Food and Drink Options

You won’t go hungry at The Hoxton Southwark. There's a rooftop restaurant with stunning views and a laid-back vibe, perfect for pre- or post-show bites. Grab a bite in the lobby or mezzanine dining area, or stock your in-room fridge with goods from the lobby shop at supermarket prices. While 24/7 room service isn’t listed, the flexible dining options and nearby eateries make late-night snacking easy. Breakfast is available—a welcome treat after a late night out.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel doesn’t host live music on-site, its prime location means you’re just minutes from buzzing bars, pubs, and lounges on the South Bank and beyond. Chill out at the hotel’s rooftop bar for drinks with a view, or explore nearby hidden cocktail spots and local craft pubs for a more intimate vibe.

What People Say

Guests love the stylish decor and great location, often mentioning how easy it is to reach major venues and attractions. The vibe is described as hip without being pretentious, and reviewers consistently praise the comfy beds, friendly staff, and thoughtful in-room amenities like the mini fridge and premium toiletries.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests have noted that rooms can be on the smaller side, especially if you’re traveling with lots of gear. The industrial design, while trendy, might not appeal to everyone. And while there’s no on-site parking, public transport is plentiful.

The Bottom Line

The Hoxton Southwark is a stylish, well-located base for concert-goers who want comfort, cool vibes, and easy access to London’s top music venues.

Passable

Disliked: We booked a taxi on arrival with a staff member which when we went down to get it we were told it wasn’t booked and asked us to use Uber, we ended up having to run down the street to flag one down., resulting in us being late.The room was fine but would expect toiletries for the price of the room.The yellow bulbs gave off horrible light. We booked the Seabird for brunch but were told it was shut as we went up for our table.So had brunch at Albie downstairs, my poached eggs were lukewarm and hard with burnt toast. So not great!

Disappointing - 2.0 out of 5

While the lobby and restaurant...

Liked: The lobby and restaurant were aesthetically really nice, and the food at the restaurant was also really good.
Disliked: Given the cost, I was expecting it to be cleaner - for instance, there was a smell in the room when I first entered and the air circulation/quality in the room seemed to be quite poor. I had allergies every time I was in the room (which hasn’t happened to me before!), and the lighting in the room was a bit odd. The toilet paper that was delivered once was also dirty so I had to keep asking for more, which is not something I would have expected at this hotel. The restaurant also closed quite early, which is unfortunate, especially for travelers coming from different time zones. Overall, I was a bit disappointed with my experience, particularly given the cost and expectations of the Hoxton, and I’m not sure I would recommend this space to someone else.
