Great stay

We had a great stay and our daughter loved how ceeative housekeeping was every day making her bed with her stuffies in a new and different way. Sadly we had some bugs in our room, which is annoying but hotel cant control nature but it was annoying. We did have rude waiter the night we ate supper at hotel, because we were waiting for husband to join before ordering this led to them just ignoring us. Husband asked for a pitcher of water, they brought the tiniest class, repeatedly tried to get bill, noone would come. As professionals, to treat us badly because we are waiting on someone is ridiculous

The room was clean and had good amenities. The staff were always friendly. We ate out every meal just because we wanted to, not because we didn't like the hotel restaurant, which seemed to have a good atmosphere and looked clean. The only thing I would have changed would be that the room was a bit clinical; it lacked a warm, cosy feel, which subconsciously made it feel cheaper than some other, let's say more advertised on TV, offerings. Other than that, it was a great base for a few days city break!

Check in very quick and easy. Room clean and good size. Comfortable bed and extra pillow if needed. Good shower. Lovely breakfast lots of choice and regularly topped up.

This is a bare-bones hotel, but it works if you only need a landing pad at night. I spent all my days walking around London enjoying the sights, not lounging in my hotel. I don't need a fancy hotel with many amenities, so this hotel was perfect for me. Plus, I spent the money I saved on other activities. The location is central and safe.

Convenient for the South Bank and walks along the river. Perfectly functional for a night’s stay. And if you like the ‘hospital-chic’ look, then this hotel room style is for you. Bed and shower were good but bathroom is in an odd plasticky booth, decorated with coloured vinyl - reminiscent of a hospital toilet.
