About
Sea Containers London is a riverside luxury hotel and restaurant destination that blends the glamour of the 1920s transatlantic liner with contemporary design by Tom Dixon. The property boasts stunning views of the Thames, world‑class dining venues, and an award‑winning bar scene. The Star‑rated Sea Containers Restaurant invites guests to enjoy modern British cuisine in an intimate yet relaxed ambience, with seasonally inspired menus and an extensive cocktail list. Rumoured to be the city’s most vibrant riverfront spot, it is a favourite for couples, families and solo travellers seeking a memorable London experience. The hotel also offers a selection of curated packages such as the Culture Vulture experience, the Set Sail Cabin Suite promotion, and seasonal celebrations like Christmas in Colour, all of which come with exclusive perks such as museum tickets, restaurant credit and special breakfasts. The venue is open every day, with breakfast served 7 am–10:30 am Monday‑Friday (7 am–11 am Saturday‑Sunday), lunch from 12 pm–4 pm Monday‑Friday, dinner 5:30 pm–10 pm Monday‑Friday (5:15 pm–10 pm Saturday‑Sunday), and a weekend brunch from 12 pm–4:30 pm Saturday‑Sunday.
