Excellent Stay Near Tower Bridge

modern designspacious roomhelpful staffideal location

The apartment was well-furnished. It also had every amenity I needed. The location proved ideal for my sightseeing. The staff were consistently great, helpful when I required assistance with directions and other hotel-related services. I found my room to be spacious and modern (I really liked the design).

The green light on the wall at night was a little too bright, and there was no way to switch it off.

Rooms

My room included a fully equipped kitchen, complete with modern appliances and cookware, enabling convenient meal preparation and dining within the apartment. There were also bath towels and robes available.

Dining

8/10

While I did not dine in the hotel restaurant, I made full use of the kitchen in my apartment. The convenience of nearby supermarkets, meant I could easily shop for groceries and prepare meals at my own pace.

Location

The hotel location allowed easy access to key attractions (for example Tower Bridge). The proximity to public transport made exploring the city convenient. Several restaurants and shops were within a short walking distance.

the location suited my needs perfectly. i found the apartment to be modern and clean. it was only a short walk to the tower hill tube station..

I found the room backed directly onto a railway line. It was very noisy at night. the breakfast quality was subpar. it was the worst hotel breakfast i have ever had. It ran out of fruit and offered only basic white bread and cold eggs..
