“Native Bankside occupies a converted Victorian tea warehouse, now offering spacious serviced apartments with modern kitchens; I think its location is superb, steps from the Thames and close to transport links. The quiet rooms and extra comfortable beds make it a calm sanctuary amidst the hustle and bustle; it's an ideal London retreat.”
