Reviews and Ratings
The hotel's rooms were stunning and exceeded our expectations with great beds, well-equipped bathrooms, and lovely little touches. The service was polite and attentive, although there were some instances of inconsistency. The location was very good, close to key attractions and transportation hubs. The dining experience was worth it, but there were moments of busyness in the hall. Overall, a pleasant stay with excellent amenities and a few minor hiccups.
I arrived at the hotel and immediately noticed how stifling hot the room was, with the temperature set to 24%. However, once I adjusted the temperature, it became so comfortable and beautiful. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, creating a relaxing atmosphere away from the hustle and bustle of London. The room was lovely and included everything we needed.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were beautifully decorated with a great personal touch and equipped with all the creature comforts you could need. The bathroom was particularly spacious and well-equipped. However, the noisy fan on a bank holiday evening disrupted my sleep. The location was excellent for sightseeing in London with Tower Bridge right on the doorstep, but the noise issue was a downside. The dining options were varied, with plenty of choices, but the quality of the cooked breakfast could have been better. The service was outstanding, with extremely friendly and helpful staff. Overall, a memorable experience with a few minor hiccups.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were beautifully appointed, clean, and comfortable, providing a perfect haven to relax. The Indian cocktails were exceptional, offering a unique touch of Turmeric and lavender. However, a small inconvenience was the lack of a proper place or mirror for hair styling within the room.
The hotel has a prime location near Tower Bridge and the river, offering a quiet stay despite its proximity to the road. While the room was a bit disappointing in terms of size and minor damages, it was clean. The service was exceptionally helpful and friendly, going above and beyond with thoughtful gestures. The dining options were a mix of tasty English fry and Indian food but fell short on service. The location was convenient and close to public transport, making it easy to explore the area.
The hotel rooms were large and comfortable, warm, quiet, and very cozy, but lacking a mirror in the bedroom area near the plug socket which made it hot on sunny days. The service provided was attentive and helpful, although staff chatting in the hallway disrupted my sleep early in the morning. The location was good with access to key attractions nearby, but didn't have the expected 'wow' factor. The dining experience was good but could offer more variety. Overall, a comfortable stay with some minor drawbacks.
The hotel's location is outstanding, nestled beside Tower Bridge and the river, offering a surprisingly peaceful atmosphere despite its proximity to the road. The service from the staff was exceptional, with their warm and friendly demeanor making our stay truly delightful. The dining experience, although with some impressive dishes, could use improvement in terms of breakfast options included in the stay's price.
Staying at this hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The rooms were beautifully designed with Indian-inspired decor and comfortable amenities, but the view into neighboring flats was a bit of a downside. The service was friendly overall, although at times lacking attentiveness. The location was convenient for exploring popular attractions nearby but didn't quite deliver the expected 'wow' factor. The dining experience had its flaws, with long wait times and limited options. Despite some shortcomings, the facilities were satisfactory.
From the moment we arrived, the experience was lovely with a very comfortable bed and modern bathrooms. The rooms are spacious with modern fixtures and fittings, plenty of cupboard space, and a very powerful shower. The service was a mix of amazing, courteous, and polite interactions along with instances of rudeness. The location was fantastic, just a 5-minute walk from London Bridge. The dining experience was good, with outdoor patio seating available. The facilities were satisfactory overall.
I had a bit of a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were lovely and well thought out, but there were some minor inconveniences like having to go to reception in a dressing gown at 5am to get something changed internally. The hand towels in the bathroom were a nice touch, but the strange setup only allowed for one bedside table.
The hotel offers very clean and comfortable rooms with first-class bedding. The staff is extremely welcoming, warm, and helpful, making the stay enjoyable. The location is excellent, with easy access to transportation and attractions. The dining experience is fantastic with a variety of delicious breakfast options, though some may find the prices slightly high. Overall, a great value for a stay in this part of London.
My stay at the hotel was made extra special with a lovely touch of champagne and chocolates on our bed. However, the room had some heat issues and felt a bit secluded being on the ground floor without views. The gym was limited, but the breakfast was good.
