The curved riverfront façade of Sea Containers London is one of the South Bank’s more recognisable modern landmarks, facing directly across the Thames towards the City. Inside, the 359 rooms, suites and apartments take cues from transatlantic travel, with marble bathrooms and outlooks ranging from the inner courtyard to broad river views. Dining begins at river level in Sea Containers restaurant. Lyaness brings a strong cocktail focus, and 12th Knot occupies the rooftop. The agua spa, gym and Curzon cinema broaden the facilities beyond the rooms. Tate Modern and Blackfriars Bridge frame the building on either side, with the riverside path immediately outside.
