It is currently operating seven Hilton Worldwide-branded hotels, including the Hilton London Heathrow Airport Terminal 5. As well as the two Hampton by Hiltons set for spring 2014, Shiva is also planning to develop a 206-bedroom Hilton and 120-bedroom Hampton by Hilton in Leeds Quarry Hill.

Patrick Fitzgibbon, senior vice president of development,Europe & Africa, Hilton Worldwide, said: "Hampton by Hilton London Waterloo will be an exciting addition to our UK portfolio and a great introduction of the mid-priced brand in central London."

Rishi Sachdev, managing director, Shiva Hotels, added: "Hampton by Hilton London Waterloo marks the latest hotel development in Shiva's successful relationship with Hilton Worldwide. This hotel also demonstrates Shiva's commitment of developing more than 3,000 beds over the next five years."

There are currently 12 Hampton by Hiltons in the UK and more than 250 across Europe.
