CANARY RIVERSIDE PLAZA HOTEL
About the Castle Hotel
Canary Riverside Plaza Hotel, London - Sophisticated Urban Retreat
Built on the historic site of West India Quay, once the bustling center for Britain's spice trade, the Canary Riverside Plaza Hotel now offers a sophisticated modern lifestyle amidst London's dynamic business hub. It has established itself as a refined choice for travelers seeking both comfort and convenient access to the city.
Location
The hotel resides in Tower Hamlets, a locale favored by those drawn to markets, historic pubs, and ancient landmarks. Its position on the River Thames provides unparalleled vistas of the London skyline, best enjoyed from the elegant terrace. Proximity to Canary Wharf Pier, with direct Thames Clipper Boat links to central London and Greenwich, ensures effortless exploration of the capital.
Style and Character
This purpose-built hotel exudes a sense of spacious luxury, enhanced by contemporary American black walnut furnishings in its standard guest rooms. The design prioritizes comfort and elegance, creating an atmosphere that feels both polished and welcoming. The private events space, spanning the mezzanine and first floors, offers adaptable areas for gatherings.
Service and Facilities
Guests receive a full five-star experience, including complimentary access to the adjacent Virgin Active Health Club. This expansive facility boasts three floors of fitness equipment, saunas, steam rooms, hydrotherapy pools, and a 20-meter infinity-edge lap pool. Skilled therapists are on hand to alleviate the tensions of busy travel schedules, offering treatments such as a deeply relaxing hand massage using Essie Recovery Cream, formulated with rice extract for skin rejuvenation, leaving hands soft and youthful. The Signature River View Ritual is another highlight, beginning with a nourishing foot scrub and acupressure massage. For those seeking facial rejuvenation, the Organic Pharmacy Rose Crystal Facial, starting with deep breathing and jasmine aroma inhalation, promises a memorable experience.
Rooms
Standard guest rooms, measuring 37 square meters, offer a sense of space and luxury with contemporary American black walnut furnishings and views of Canary Wharf from large bay windows. Higher floors, from the second to the eighth, provide spacious guest rooms with commanding river and city views. Bedrooms are impressively appointed, featuring dressing areas and limestone bathrooms. These bathrooms include a deep soaking tub, a separate walk-in shower, a vanity area, and a separate lavatory with bidet. Select suites offer separate living and dining areas, some equipped with wet bars and pantries. The One-Bedroom River-View Suite provides a light-filled living and dining area and can be configured as a two-bedroom suite. The Penthouse Suite offers expansive living space, a pantry with a full wet bar, and dining for six, all with exceptional river and skyline views. The Presidential Suite is a private residence with a king bedroom, large walk-in closet, separate living room with executive work area, and a dining area for up to eight guests, complemented by a guest powder room.
Food and Drink
Quadrato Restaurant presents Italian-inspired menus with flavors that are light, fresh, and quintessentially Italian. Adjacent, the Quadrato Bar & Lounge serves as the perfect setting for pre-dinner aperitifs or a late-night digestif. The dining and bar areas, particularly the terrace, offer superb river and city views, making any meal or drink a scenic experience.
Value for Money
The hotel provides a comprehensive luxury experience, with room rates reflecting the high standard of amenities, service, and prime location. The inclusion of access to the extensive Virgin Active Health Club and Spa, coupled with the caliber of the suites and dining options, suggests a strong value proposition for discerning travelers.
