Greenwich InterContinental

InterContinental has opened its brand-new purpose-built Greenwich Peninsula property, just by the O2 complex.

The 453-room hotel is a welcome addition to an ever developing area. Adjacent to the arena and just 400m from North Greenwich underground station and North Greenwich Pier, the hotel offers regular access into central London in as little as 15 minutes.  For visitors to Excel, opposite across the Thames, it is an alternative to the hotels by the exhibition complex, a short walk to the Emirates Air Line station and a ‘flight’ over the river.

InterContinental London – The O2 offers its five destination-inspired food and beverage outlets including The Peninsula Restaurant and rooftop sky bar, Eighteen.  There are 59 suites – and the most breath-taking views over London.

The hotel’s conference centre boasts a 3,100sqm pillar-free ballroom – one of the largest in Europe – with an additional 19 meeting rooms, organiser’s office and an impressive 1,600sqm pre-function space exposing dramatic views of Canary Wharf.  The hotel is close to famous attractions within historic Royal Greenwich including The Cutty Sark and Greenwich Observatory, and the Maritime Museum. www.ihg.com/intercontinental/hotels
