Convenient location to Victoria Station. Clean, tidy, quiet area. Has what you need for a brief overnight stay. Was in “basement room” - far more spacious than I was expecting. Quiet area. Short walk to station. No issues. Check in is via their sister hotel around the corner.

This is one of the worst places I’ve ever stayed in my life. This is not a hotel, this is a very tiny room and a very unkept old house. At the time of arrival I asked for room service, that room service never came. The address on the website is not the same as the one for the reception which is a few blocks away. The bedding was not clean, and there are no elevator so you have to carry your luggage all the way up multiple flights of stairs. This is not a place I would ever stay in and I had to literally check out early because they did not change the bedding or provide extra towels after a long day.

Bower House is an annex so I didn't meet any staff after checking in. The room was pleasant. My only query was that in my 4 day stay, no one came to make the bed, clean the basin etc

Nice clean property in nice area. No air-con but lots of fans provided and switched on when we got in the room. Strange system of having to check in and out at a different hotel on a different street around the corner.

Our room was in the basement. Very warm and humid, could have done with a dehumidifier. Also, asked for clean towels and garbage removal so they gave us clean towels but no one ever showed up to remove the dirty towels or change the garbage. We were there for four nights and no one checked on anything. The room was clean upon our arrival though so that was good. My sister had a room next door and they had much better air circulation and a larger window.

Really lovely room, big and spacious. The bed was really comfy and the area was quiet considering it's so close to London Victoria. Easy check-in, we were a bit early and they accommodated us regardless. Will definitely stay again, thank you.

I really enjoyed staying here. it was affordable and comfortable. i didn't mind that we had to check in else where. the only downfall is that it had no air-conditioning, we just opened the window day and night. also, it was far from downtown London but we did use public transportation so that was ok
