LONDON will have just over 1,000-room capacity added when the 14-storey Park Plaza Westminster Bridge has a soft opening on 4 February 2010. During this period the hotel will offer limited availability as it undergoes final preparations including the completion of its full-service spa, swimming pool and gym. The £350m property is situated at the foot of Westminster Bridge opposite Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament. Guest room features include 37-inch LCD flat-screen televisions, bedside lighting controls with dimmers, a workstation with international electrical outlets and a mini-bar with separate refrigerator. The pillar-free Westminster Ballroom accommodates as many as 1,400 theatre-style and more than 1,000 for dinner. An additional 31 meeting rooms provide an array of options ranging from small board meetings to receptions for 1,200 guests. www.parkplaza.com/london
