Duchy House is within walking distance of major attractions such as: Somerset House, The Courtauld Gallery, The Lyceum Theatre, South Bank London, Covent Garden, Leicester Square and Oxford Street. Excellent travel links make Duchy House easy to reach, with 5 underground stations less than 800 meters from the property and several nearby bus routes.

A 19th-century building with double and single occupancy bedrooms across four floors, with lift access. Guests have a choice of ensuite bedrooms (with private bathroom) and standard single rooms (with an external bathroom shared with one other guest).

Duchy House is located on the junction of the Strand and Waterloo Bridge (the building's entrance is located between Boots and Café Nero on Waterloo Bridge (postcode WC2R 1HG) and across the road from the vibrant and bustling Covent Garden. Thus, whilst road traffic and the night-time economy in this part of London might pose a noise issue, windows in all bedrooms are fitted with secondary glazing. Guests wishing for a quieter stay should, therefore, request in the ‘Additional information’ section of the booking form a ‘rear-facing room, whilst those wishing to see out onto the Strand and Lyceum Theatre should request a ‘street side’ room. Please be aware that not all requests can be matched. The allocations are subject to availability and room type chosen.

Check In: 14:00 (2:00pm) Onwards (arrivals may be allowed outside this window if your travel plans can't be adjusted however this is subject to availability)

Check Out: 08:00 (8:00am) - 10:00 (10:00am)

I booked at short notice and picked an inside room; during a previous stay I found the noise too great with one overlooking the road. The room was basic but clean and quiet, and shared toilet/shower (also used by one other room) clean too. Shared kitchen functional but fine. Reception was very helpf...

All aspects of our stay were excellent and I will certainly book again next year. "Our" means my brother and myself, both in our mid-seventies. My brother has Alzheimers disease and I chose our accommodation carefully to minimize the strain on both of us. I had requested a quiet room, which we we...

Everything was great (comfortable and clean) and so simple to book. Only small point - didn't have a glass for water to take tablets at night.

This is such a great location. The room is very simple, but clean and quiet (we were at the back of the building). We used the kitchen to prepare breakfast each morning. We had a problem with a loose door knob to our bathroom, but we reported it and it was repaired immediately. I would stay here aga...

Lovely welcome. Very clean and felt very safe as a woman travelling alone. A little constructive criticism- maybe a mirror in the bedroom for putting on make up could be added.

We enjoyed our time at Duchy House! The staff were really helpful. The room was clean, the beds comfortable. The room was small, but we didn't mind, because we were only using it as a place to sleep. The bathroom door was heavy and defaults to always closed, but this was not a big deal. The medicine...
