Overall nice stsy
Beautiful entrance bar and lobby Staff lovely friendly and helpful Rooms very dated and in need of a refurb but overall clean, windows old and drafty - but kind of expected that due to the age of the building and they may be limited to what they can replace/change Complimentary mini bar is a nice touch Big bathroom with separate shower and bath Close to tubes Nice walk along river two minutes away Quite central to lots of landmarks

Great experience!
This hotel is in a great location to see all the main sights in and around London. The hotel lobby is very elegant and you are welcomed by a doorman to greet you. Checkin is really easy but does require a £100 safety deposit in case of any damages which is standard in most hotels. We decided to pick a room with the river view and was not disappointed! The view of the London eye along the River Thames was spectacular, not to mention seeing the Shard and St Paul’s Cathedral to name a few! Looked even better at night! The room itself was very cosy with a king size bed, big wardrobe, coffee machine, safe, international plugs in the wall, under floor heating for the bathroom, air con and a ‘do not disturb’ button to just name a few highlights. On our last night we decided to have breakfast delivered to the room before checkout which was delivered at the requested time, the full English breakfast cost around £29 each and it was ‘ok’ but was quite cold in some areas which was a little disappointing. Not sure with us being in the 8th floor was a factor in the food getting cold? One other slight issue was with the Aircon, worked completely fine on the first day but decided not to work the day after which made the room very chilly! But apart from that overall great experience and would definitely stay here again!
