the “Topping Out” Ceremony and first preview of the £115m Hilton London Bankside, slated to open in summer 2015.Situated next to the award winning NEO Bankside development, with views over Tate Modern
towards St Paul’s Cathedral, Hilton London Bankside is owned by Synergy Hotels (part of Splendid Hospitality Group) and upon completion will operate under the Hilton Hotels & Resorts brand.The contemporary, full-service hotel will offer 292 stylishly appointed guest rooms including a 100 sq

into its final stage with the Topping Out Ceremony. The South Bank rejuvenation began back in 2000 with the transformation of the riverside’s old power station into one of the world’s most iconic modern galleries. There are almost 17 million visitors to London every year and this vibrant area is now a destination in its own right. I am thrilled that in 12 months’ time Hilton London Bankside will open to guests.”Simon Vincent, EVP and president, EMEA, Hilton Worldwide said, “London’s Southbank has been the
subject of incredible regeneration over the past 15 years and it has a unique identity which attracts residents, tourists and business guests alike. Hilton London Bankside will be a striking addition to our burgeoning London portfolio of more than 30 trading hotels – its quality and scale further demonstrate our signature brand’s dominance in some of London’s best locations.”Synergy Hotels LLP
