The tallest in the UK

Designed by Renzo Piano and completed in 2012, the Shard is 310 metres tall.

Seeing the Shard

At 310 metres the Shard is visible from much of London. The hotels that name it keep the view for a bar or an executive lounge rather than the rooms, so check where you will actually see it from.

Book the room, not just the hotel

A hotel “with a view” rarely means every room has it. Of the 2 hotels on this page, 0 name the Shard view in a specific room category. That category is what you need to book: if the view is in the room’s name on the booking page, it is part of what you pay for.

The others mention the view in their own description, usually with “some rooms”. That is a real statement from the hotel, but it does not tell you which room you will get. Book the best category you can, then ask the hotel in writing before you arrive.

Good to know

How do you know a hotel has a Shard view?+

We read the room names and the hotel’s own description on its booking listing. A view is shown only when one of them mentions it. Being close is never enough: a hotel 300 metres away can face a courtyard, and one 4 kilometres away can see the whole city.

What does “not stated” mean next to balcony or terrace?+

It means the listing does not say. It does not mean the hotel has none. We never turn missing information into a “no”.

Are the prices on this page live?+

No. They were collected ahead for one night with two adults and are shown with that date. Use “Check availability” for live rates on your own dates.
