great palce to start shopping trips
by TripAdvisor Member ramsi
Was in Hesperia London Victoria Hotel for a shopping break (two nights), booked for 99£ on superbreak.com (including everything - breakfast, VAT, taxes).
Room was modern, spaciously and clean, breakfast was ok, not famouse for spoiled swiss travellers. Staff was very polite. Everything worked fine, comparing the former hotels on the same pricelevel Hesperia London Victoria was a great deal.
Location in the opposite of victoria station was a perfect point to reach all famous london shopping locations within minutes.
Would definitely recommend it!

staff helpful and polite and nice variety for breakfast- cannot recommend highly enough
Great breakfast, nice functional hotel
by A TripAdvisor Member
Room size was good for London I suppose (executive room). Buffet breakfast was fab! Really good range (10 different fruits, full English and continental, cereals.....). Only complaint was the room and corridors were very hot, air-con was ineffective, but it was hot in London. We payed £105 for a double incl. breakfast and got a free upgrade just by being polite. We would stay here again, but on reflection we would probably prefer somewhere with more character. But for a 'holiday-inn' style hotel, it's excellent. Like other reviewers recommended, we stayed at the back and it was very quiet.
Loved It

I stayed here for one night and it was fabulous. The room was modern and clean.Staff were extremely friendly and helpful. It is so handy to the train and tube stations. The breakfast was excellent and had loads of choices available to suit everyone's requirements. I can't wait to return and would certainly recommend it.

The Holiday Inn Victoria is just a minutes walk around the corner from the station and it is averagely priced (for London). Check the link for VTer's reviews (including mine):

I just booked my boss into the Hesperia London Victoria adjacent to the station (since he needed to be close to a ministry nearby and would need to get to Gatwick anyway). I was a bit worried since it's in a station area but he was very pleased with the hotel itself. It's a four star one in a famous Spanish chain but I got it for only 74 pounds since I booked on the official London tourist site where big hotels have great deals:

(You can search an area).

Depends what you mean by reasonably priced.
The cheapest single rooms at the back of Victoria Station are going for as little as 21 GBP - but they're in 'hotels' that are only OK if you've an outlook the same as a backpacker.
The Thistle Victoria actually part of Victoria Station is doing specials for the next couple of months on many dates for 69 GBP, the Thistle Westminster about 100m from the station is also doing the same deal through online discounters. Lastminute.com are doing them even cheaper but don't name them, just says something like 4 Star Hotel by Victoria Station - you can tell which one it is by the description.
The Hesperia and Rubens Hotel are also close by the hotel but are around 100 GBP.
There are a couple of Comfort Inns at the back of the station by the coach stations which do rooms for about 70 GBP.
