"Cheap and Cheerful"
Great location for the river, within walking distance of the Thames, The Globe, the undergroynd system. Some good small local London pubs can be found only a few streets away which offered fantastic value for money meals and great beers (Tip here is to go to back street hidden away pubs, the meals are always home made and brillant and the beers are from local english breweries and not run of the mill ones that you could drink back home). I was part of a party booked and we were given a free upgrade on our room which was very clean and very large!. With breakfast we paid £35 in total per night !!! fantastic value. The breakfast was a free for all and as the offer was so good the hotel was packed so it was a bit of a bun fight to get your breakfast but for that price you can not complain. Would I go back again, yes, staff were friendly and helpful and lets face it with so much to do and see you do not want to spend time in your hotel, it is only a base and I highly recommend this as your base if you come to London.

"Very happy - clean, good food, helpful staf....."
Just returned from a one night theatre break (saw Woman in Black - scary!). We havent actually stayed in that many hotels recently but I was really happy with this one. The room was not massive but perfectly adequate, it was clean, modern & the bed was comfortable - I dont require much else. There was a little bit of traffic noise but I get that at home too. It really was minimal and hey we were in the centre of London!!!
Breakfast was excellent & we really enjoyed our stay. The price we payed was greatly reduced from the one advertised at reception (booked through superbreak.com) so I consider what we payed to be excellent value for money - not sure I would have felt the same if I had payed full price - that was v expensive as far as I am concerned - but things are!
We were able to walk to Covent Garden where we had a lovely meal before the show - this took about 25 mins at a gentle pace & even felt safe and happy to walk back. Also went to Tate gallery in the morning before we came home - that is approx 3 mins walk away - fab!
I would have no problem in recommending this place x |

"Good for a weekend break"
Reasonable, middle-market hotel. Thoroughly clean. Helpful staff. Good location for the South Bank (just behind Tate Modern), but not so good for the more central London attractions & West End.
The breakfast (not included in our room rate) was very expensive, so we chose not to have it.
Our room was comfortable and spacious enough by London standards.
We would stay here again.
This hotel won't take your breath away, but we got a good discounted price and it was good enough for a short stay.

"Clean, comfortable hotel"
This is a good, clean comfortable hotel with friendly reception staff.
The rooms are quite small but modern with comfortable facilities including the usual tea, coffee etc.
I have stayed here twice on business and it is very conveniently located - close to Waterloo station and other attractions (opposite the Tate Modern and close to the River bank).
I have not bothered with breakfast either time as I feel that £13.50 is quite a lot of money to pay when you can get a good cooked breakfast nearby for less than half the price. If you are a tourist then take a trip to one of the pubs on the River bank who do very hearty, reasonably priced breakfasts etc.
I ate dinner here on one occasion and to be honest it was pretty bland and boring but edible.
All in all a well located hotel, good for short stays.
