TrainPal's Travel Expert Experience
"The main toilet facilities at Victoria station are some of the capital’s busiest, and you’ll often find long queues up the stairs. But luckily, there are alternatives within the station building. Avoid a lengthy wait and head to the loos on the other side of the station near the Hudson’s Place entrance by platforms 1 and 2. More toilets, including baby changing and disabled facilities, are in the Food Terrace of Victoria Place shopping centre above the main concourse. It also serves as a quieter spot to wait for your train."
