Our updated Local Plan needs to consider how much visitor accommodation Lambeth needs and where this should go. Complete the hotels and visitor accommodation survey.

This consultation is your chance to tell us what you think are the issues for the partial review of the Local Plan and how you think they should be tackled.

London is the second most visited city in the world, with 31.5 million overnight visitors (domestic and international) in 2015. Lambeth is home to many top visitor attractions including the London Eye, the Southbank Centre, National Theatre, London Dungeons and London Aquarium as well as newer tourist destinations like Brixton.

New evidence from the Mayor of London suggests that London and Lambeth will need even more visitor rooms up to 2041. The updated Lambeth Local Plan will need to strike the right balance between new hotels and other much needed uses such as housing and offices for an appropriate mix of uses in each neighbourhood.
