One of the absolute best hotels I’ve ever stayed at. A special thank you to the young lady who was training, I believe her name was, Paulina, her kindness and understanding for the start of my stay assured me that I made the right choice.. Location, luxuries, and amenities will definitely bring me back again when visiting London in the future..

Good location, good hotel

Room was very spacious for London, furniture a bit worn but sturdy. Bathroom was very nice, shower and separate bath. Great location, only a few hundred meters from Embankment station. Good selection for breakfast, however we had to wait 15 minutes to get a seat on Sunday and it was chaotic, having to wait for items to be refilled, so would recommend getting to breakfast earlier on the weekends.

What an amazing hotel. Great size room with an excellent view of the river and the London Eye. Staff were friendly and attentive and the room was very clean. All the facilities you could need for a stay and a well-stocked mini bar as well as tea and coffee facilities. Will stay again!

Hotel is a stones throw from Embankment tube station. We had a river view room and the view was stunning, especially at night. Staff were helpful and very polite. Would stay again.
