"service"

Took 1hr 40 mins to get through to room service for bottle of wine for room and took 40 mins to get served a pint of beer outside when we arrived . Maybe give hotel guests a bit of priority over people coming in off the street ??

"Tired looking hotel with poor customer service "

This hotel trades on it`s view of Tower Bridge only. The bedrooms are tired looking with wallpaper peeling off the walls and the furniture scratched and in need of replacing or varnishing. I tried to order two glasses of wine in the bar, however, before I could get to the bar, someone from the hotel came up to me and asked what I wanted then proceeded to take my payment before I had even been served with my drinks! Who would take money before actually receiving their purchase? It was like paying for a meal before actually receiving it and tasting the food? Complained and got my money back, although they could not refund it to the card I had used so I had to accept cash! Would definitely not go back. When reading other reviews it seems we were not the only ones with complaints about this hotel and even one of my friends had stayed years ago and thought it was below standard then. Waste of money!

Perfect location for Tower bride bridge, Tower of London, sight seeing boat to Grenwich and to Westminster. Small but perfectly adequate room with the most comfortable double bed we have had in a hotel!! Friendly helpful staff at reception and concierge.

"Too far away from Theatre Venue,several tubes to get there and back,no direct tube train."

Booked this Hotel well in advance as a theatre break and paid a lot of money thinking that we would be in a good room with a good view but NO this was not the case. We got the worse possible room with out a view either of the Bridge nor the Mariner. Was not happy and would certainly not book with this company again.

"Lovely hotel but not a good nights sleep"

The hotel could not be situated in a better place with perfect views of the marina and Tower Bridge. The staff are friendly and helpful and although the rooms are showing a few signs of wear and tear they are clean, well presented and well equipped. Unfortunately, due to an unruly guest the fire alarm was triggered at 2:30 am and the ensuing confusion meant that we were kept awake for an hour. No apology was offered and the incident was not mentioned until I queried it at checkout later the same morning.

"Lovely and accessible"

Staff were very polite, room was lovely and a fabulous location. Looked after our bags on last day so we didn`t have to carry them round until our train and were brilliant at sorting us a taxi to the theatre and back so we felt very safe. Both Drivers were excellent and informed us on our phone as they were a little late due to traffic - excellent service

The hotel is well located close to buses, underground and river buses. The beds are extremely comfortable and the rooms clean. The staff are friendly and work very hard, breakfast is well organised with a good range of food. Some of the public areas are now a little tired but it is excellent value for money.

"Comfortable hotel but room to hot tried to turn temp down but ended up leaving windows open."

Maybe it might be an idea to have the room colder then at least it is easier to warm them up.
