Dated Hotel in a Great Location

The two main plus points for this Hotel are the staff and the location. All the staff we encountered during our stay whether at Reception or Breakfast Dining Room, were brilliant. Very helpful and are a credit to the hotel. The location is great, next to Tower Bridge, Tower of London and a 5-10 minute walk from Tower Hill Tube and DLR stations. Have to say on the downside, the Hotel is quite dated being about 50 years old. The rooms especially are in need of modernizing as they fall behind the likes of Premier Inn, Hampton by Hilton or Travelodge. Our room was small and although clean, in the bathroom the hand soap dispenser fell off the wall as did the towel rail. Unfortunately for most of our three day stay one of the four lifts was out of order, anyone staying here needs to allow extra time for going up and down in the lifts as they are not quick.

Excellent hotel and great location for London. The best views of tower bridge. Rooms are now a little tired a could do with a face lift. Still very good but just tired. Breakfast is good. Staff very friendly. Clean, tidy. Plenty of restaurants in and around. Again, best view of the tower bridge you will ever have. Still a good 4 star but rooms are getting past their prime.

Xmas get away. Pleasently surprised

Rather apprehensive of what hotel.would be like due to reviews. However arrived and smooth booking in. Had rang a few weeks before to ask if it would be possible for a twin room due to change in circumstances. Told it would be at the discretion of staff on arrival. We were late arriving so I didn't expect it to have been carried out. Very surprised. Twin room with a fantastic bridge view. The room it self is very much like a Travelodge/premier inn. You are paying for the bridge view. We also discovered that this wasn't best location for our travel itinerary. However if you are visiting Tower bridge, tower of life ndon and HMS Belfast so close. We had food just across the bridge in weather spoons be aware noisy and watch for bag snatches and phones especially . Security in pub though. On departure I enquired about the mini bar/fridge and told it was complimentary and we could go back to the room if we wanted and take what we wanted. (Wish we had known earlier as a can of coke was £2.50+. Must have been 4 cans and 2 bottles of water. Also when you are looking for tea facilities they are in a cupboard bit on view. An expresso maker is on the dressing table . Can't really fault the hotel staff. Seemed friendly, did witness alot of disgrunpled people though arguing with staff. We enjoyed our stay.

Daily cleaning of the room could be stepped up as I observed that hair left on the toilet flooring was not cleaned up thoroughly. Replenishment of the mini bar was not consistent. Changing of the towels could be better, sometimes, not a full set was given. A change of bath robes were not given.

The view from our room was absolutely incredible. We loved opening the window and seeing the tower bridge. This hotel is clean, the staff was wonderful and accommodating, and we liked the bar overlooking the bridge and river. Their drinks were strong and decently priced.

Problem with television

My stay was ok. It would have been better if the front desk cared at all about helping me with the malfunctioning TV. I called the front desk 3 times to get help with the television and no one helped me.
