Guests frequently highlight the hotel's superb location, a short walk from attractions like the Tower of London and Tower Bridge, yet situated on a quiet street. The breakfast stands out with its varied and excellent options, and the rooms are often described as spacious and comfortable, with features like good power showers. While most find the location ideal, some have noted that the area can be less lively on Sundays with some bars closed. many appreciate the well-thought-out amenities and comfortable beds, ensuring a pleasant stay.

decent stay, some issues noticed

easy accessmetro stationfriendly staffpoor wifirunning waterlate night
the location offers easy access to the tower of london. it is also an easy walk to tower bridge. the nearby metro station was useful (i used it often). the staff were also friendly and accommodating.
the wifi was quite poor . i had to use my phone as a hotspot (it was not ideal). i also found the sound of water running from adjacent rooms disturbing. it was especially noticeable late at night.

a few things need fixing..

broken treadmillempty wipes
the gym seemed a bit of a joke. several machines were out of order. the treadmill situation was particularly dire, with two out of three not working. the anti-bac wipes were empty. i mean, come on, it's not rocket science to keep things maintained. the whole setup felt a bit neglected.

The location is GREAT , near the Tower Hill station. The room included everything I needed and was very comfortable. The staff were really nice and helpful.
The room was an odd shape. The duvet on the LARGE bed was small. Supplies of tea, coffee and milk in the room were stingy.

poor experienceaverage breakfast
The air conditioning in the first room didn't work well and the toilet made strange noises. I had to switch rooms on the third day. The second room was better, but one day the curtain fell down. The breakfast was also very average, a disappointment after the initial impression.
