Fantastic stay and friendly front of house staff! Rooms were a little dusty and marked in the bathroom on the walls, sink was also badly water marked. Given a city view room as we were celebrating anniversary - room was decorated for us for a fee.

Three perfect nights in Central London

The Hotel is close to St Paul’s Cathedral and the London Bridge. The London Eye is also close by. It has a bus stop right next to it where you can take a bus to the Farringdon Station for the Elizabeth Line to LHR. Staffs are very helpful and the breakfast is delicious.

Family friendly stay

Staff were really helpful and sweet. Loved the ability to use phone app to order room service and ask about any issues/book swimming pool. The pool was very busy during one session but quieter in the next and everything was very clean. Would be great to add in a swim suit dryer to the changing rooms as we came back the next day but my suit was stil wet! Overall really lovely place for families, not far from Waterloo. Pool and inclusive breakfast were a hit for kids :)
