Perfectly comfortable hotel. Walking distance to many of the sights along southbank. Large, quiet room. We couldn't work out how to change between the shower heads but it was all very comfortable, functional and we had a good stay. It was annoying that southwark tube station was shut this weekend as we chose the hotel due to proximity to a tube station on the jubilee line as were going to an event at the O2. Some warning of this would have been good in the many pre arrival emails But otherwise it fit the bill well

The hotel staff is very welcoming. The breakfast choices are limited. We experienced an issue with the bathroom drain, which the hotel staff fixed within a day. However, it raises the question of how such a problem could occur in so expensive hotel. Another significant inconvenience is the bathroom lighting. The wall separating the bathroom from the sleeping area is transparent, so when the bathroom light is turned on at night, it illuminates the sleeping area.

Mouldy Bath

The mould in the bathtub and poor general cleanliness was the main downside of this hotel. Carpet had been poorly hoovered (if at all) and all fixtured heavy wear & tear. Large stains on the carpet floor. Reception staff friendly, decent bar attached. Nice breakfast with a wide range available. The swimming pool and sauna was great, limiting the number of people in the pool by pre-booking was appreciated to keep the medium-sized pool from being overcrowded
