Only stay at this hotel if it is the cheapest and you have no other options. It’s very basic and falling apart and staff were rude. But it’s a good location and often the cheapest place in London.

The hotel was located well and had some beautiful restaurants in walking distance. The rooms are a little dated and the shower in our room was broken, kept falling down off the holder. But the staff were lovely, and overall we had a lovely stay.

Perfect stay, cannot fault it.
Our room was absolutely huge with all the amenities you could ask for. Lovely view too.
Parking is really easy and convenient and I think for central London it’s great value.
We always stay in Canary Wharf but first time at this hotel and we have already booked to return in a couple of months.

They stay at the hotel was good but the fact that they don’t clean constantly is a little irritating but understandable for the price and it is in a great location
