Editor's note
The Park Plaza Westminster Bridge features an indoor pool, which according to the hotel description is a key amenity. However, a guest review highlights a significant drawback: the pool operates on a 30-minute reservation system that is difficult to secure and feels too short for proper enjoyment. This suggests while the pool is present, its accessibility and inherent limitations diminish its appeal as a central highlight of the stay.
Pool details confirmed against the hotel's own website plus at least one independent source. No editor has visited in person. Booking links may earn us a commission; they never influence the ranking order.

The official website confirms a 15-metre indoor swimming pool in the Mandara Spa, which is heated and open year-round. Google Places and Expedia also confirm an indoor pool and a children's pool. Tripadvisor and web search mention the pool is small and operates on a booking system with limited session times, and that day passes are available for external guests.
