The Spotlight on The Sanctuary House Hotel

Classic Comfort in the Heart of Westminster

A blend of Victorian charm and modern convenience, The Sanctuary House Hotel is tucked away in the iconic Westminster district. Just a short walk to some of London’s most historic landmarks, including Big Ben and Westminster Abbey, this hotel offers a warm, inviting stay — ideal for music fans looking to be close to the action while enjoying a quieter, more refined atmosphere.

Why Concert-goers love it

This hotel is a prime pick for concert-goers thanks to its central location — many major venues are easily reached via nearby tube stations or even on foot. Despite being in the bustling heart of London, the hotel offers a peaceful retreat after a loud night out. With a 2pm check-in, you can arrive comfortably before your evening plans, and the 11am check-out gives you time to sleep in after the encore.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for an atmospheric base close to the city’s music scene
  • Solo travelers attending a bucket-list gig who want a safe, central stay
  • Couples turning their concert night into a romantic London weekend
  • Fans who want a quieter, stylish space to wind down post-show
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who still want character and comfort

Food and Drink Options

Downstairs, you'll find a traditional Fuller's pub serving up hearty British classics like fish and chips and deep-filled pies — perfect for late-evening dining. While there's no 24/7 room service, the pub stays open late for drinks and dinner. Breakfast is available on-site and ideal for a relaxed morning after a night out. You’re also within walking distance of numerous eateries around Westminster and St James’s.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself doesn’t host live music, the on-site pub offers a cozy, authentic British pub vibe with award-winning ales and wines. For more nightlife, you’re within easy reach of Soho, Covent Garden, and South Bank — all just a short tube ride away and packed with bars, lounges, and late-night spots.

What People Say

Guests consistently praise the hotel’s location and charming atmosphere. Reviewers love the balance of being close to London’s top attractions while still enjoying a peaceful night’s sleep. The staff is noted for being friendly and helpful, and many mention the pub as a highlight for food and drinks after a day (or night) out.

Areas for Improvement

Rooms are stylish but can be a bit compact, especially for those traveling with lots of gear. While the area is central, public transport may be your best friend after a late gig — so factor in travel time if your venue’s further afield.

The Bottom Line

A character-filled Westminster stay that’s perfect for concert-goers wanting a central location, classic pub vibes, and a peaceful night’s rest after the show.

Location, Location

Liked: Location Location, walkable to Palace, Big Ben, Parliament. Breakfast was great. Pastries and other items to help yourself and then you can order from a menu for the main breakfast. Reception staff was very helpful- arranged car to airport for us upon leaving.
Disliked: the bathroom was dark. It was difficult to see well when shaving or applying make up etc. The room was dark as well.Entry needs carpet and elevator cleaned. Very expensive property, not what I would expect at $500.00 per night.
