The staff was very accommodating and quite respectful. Glad we opted to add breakfast to our stay every morning as it was a nice variety of good food. The only complaint that we had is the phone in our room didn't work for some reason for room service. But either way, it was a great hotel to stay in for London.

Location is convenient, next to the Tower Bridge. The room is small. I had the double bed and one single bed (sleeps 3). There were only 2 of us, still feel a little croweded. The breakfast was adequate. I think the hotel is of good value.

Lovely hotel in the middle of the city. Comfy bed and VERY quiet! The restaurant on-site is fairly reasonably priced, and the fish & chips were very good. There is a river adjacent outdoor bar that looked nice too. I never made it down to breakfast because I wanted to get out-and-about as soon as woke up, so no clue how that was.

Highly recommended for a stay in London. My only complaint was the construction noise on the morning we decided to sleep in. However, the hotel compensated our late check out fee.
