“This hotel makes getting around the city remarkably simple, especially with Blackfriars station so close. I found the rooms quite comfortable, and the inclusion of a speaker is a thoughtful touch for modern travellers. It presents compelling value, particularly given the excellent pool facilities and genuinely friendly staff who make you feel quite at home.”

convenient family stay
single beds bottled water decent wifi
We had enough space in the family room. The single beds felt comfy and were big enough for my tall teens. bottled water, real milk, tea, coffee, and biscuits in the room was a great bonus. decent wifi was a plus. the bathroom had a mostly opaque wall. We managed fine though.
the pool was nothing like advertised, and the spa part of it did not work during my entire visit. children were shrieking and jumping in and out of the pool constantly! the gym had machines not working.

small room sickening smell
The breakfast quality seemed excellent, and I found the restaurant great for evening meals.
I booked a room with a city view and I received a view of nothing. My room sat between two huge buildings and the room itself felt fairly small. Water pressure for the shower was dreadful. A usual shower took three times as long. The smell in the corridors was sickening, like burnt sugar, and chemicals.
