Dirty furnitures, doings is beds are visible by the eye. Very unpleasant smell in the bathrooms. Questionable cleaning and poor service. Note: appear to be random locations. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 3 Dec 2018 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Opzich gelegen op een rustige plek, was niet zoals de foto’s en waren best wat dingen kapot. ( oven, vaatwasser, schimmel in de badkamer) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Duncan 20 Nov 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Bad check in, lovely stay. Horrible check in and they were unavailable when we called and hotels.com tried to call. Then had to work to another location then the one given. Phone number listed was in Prauge not London. But everything else was great. ##### Duncan Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Daniel 19 Nov 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Apartment was good - but was very far away from the office location - 15/20 minute walk with bags etc was not a great start to the trip ##### Daniel Stayed 12 nights in Nov 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Niels Peter 13 Nov 2018 Liked: Staff & service #### London Bridge Lejligheden lå perfekt i forhold til transport. Dog er det lidt misvisende at man skal møde op et sted, og så videre til et nyt sted, hvor lejligheden ligger. Det kunne man godt fortælle om forud. Billederne på Hotels.com hjemmeside er også lidt for pæne, og er ikke helt repræsentativ af lejlighedens faktiske tilstand. Men god service hos Glory City apppartments, og det gik hurtigt. Samt de kom også hurtigt med en barneseng, som vi efterbestilte. Når man rejser med en lille på 9 mnd, er det perfekt med en stue, hvor man kan gå ind og være. ##### Niels Peter Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2018 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Chris 29 Oct 2018 Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Misleading adverts The apartments could be anywhere in central London - so advertise them individually for each apartment rather than the tiny hole of an office next to the shard, pretending their location is the shard. The apartment itself was in bad condition - broken shower, basin, nobody showed when this was reported. None of the radiators worked. ##### Chris Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### matteo 19 Oct 2018 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Disliked: Cleanliness #### Nice place to stay Nice place, big apartment, great location, nice servixe, but a bit dirty and dismiss. ##### matteo Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2018 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 17 Oct 2018 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Why this "hotel" has four stars, is beyond me. The only positive thing about it is the size of the apartment. Positive: The apartments are large Negative: - Wifi not working - Dirty bathroom - Smell: One of the bedrooms smelled like old sigarettes. The kitchen also smelled really bad - The reseption was in a seperate building (like all the 11 apartments were) 25 minutes walk from the apartment. We also had to walk from the reseption to the apartment - there were no taxi included. - The reseption lookes like an untidy dorm room. - I called the reseption to get them to order me a taxi one day, which they wouldn\`t do - I had ordered two apartments. They were located really far from each other, so we had to change apartment the second day. Both apartments were really noisy at night time. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 30 Sept 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Large clean apartment, a bit basic Had to get a taxi from the office where you pick up the keys as had lots of luggage and it’s a fairly long 1+ mile walk to the apartment. Heating in the apartment is night storage and cold by evening so needed to use the oil filled radiators which take time to warm up. The apartment is large. A bit basic but fine. You’ll need to bring your own shampoo etc ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### JEONGHOON 26 Sept 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 친절함 직원들이 친절하고 편하게 안내해주셨어요 다만 저희 짐이 많아서 거리이동이 힘들어요 ##### JEONGHOON Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Mihaela 25 Sept 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### Spacious apartment I booked an apartment for 3 days for a business travel with London Bridge apartments hoping to get a good location. They have apartments in several locations, so you don\`t really know what you are getting, mine was more than 10 mins away from any Tube station, far from any supermarkets. Service was good, I asked for an apartment at a higher floor as I was travelling alone and they accommodated my request. Otherwise, apartment is spacious, clean, furniture kind of old but overall comfortable. ##### Mihaela Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Peter 12 Nov 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### great serviced apartment a great few days in london for work. ##### Peter ### 8/10 Good #### Pia 23 Apr 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort ##### Pia Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 17 Apr 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2019 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hilton London Metropole](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Hilton-London-Metropole.h26134.Hotel-Information) > > [ARK Canary Wharf](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-The-Collective-Canary-Wharf.h36660267.Hotel-Information) > > [Shangri-La The Shard, London](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Shangri-La-The-Shard.h8035714.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton London Olympia](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Hilton-London-Olympia.h26035.Hotel-Information) > > [The Savoy](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-The-Savoy.h27158.Hotel-Information) > > [Royal National Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-The-Royal-National-Hotel.h55001.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel London -Tower of London](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Hotel-London-Tower-Of-London.h3977996.Hotel-Information) > > [Millennium Hotel and Conference Centre Gloucester London](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Millennium-Gloucester-Hotel-London-Kensington.h523228.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton London Paddington](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Hilton-London-Paddington.h598182.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton London Kensington](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Hilton-London-Kensington.h26612.Hotel-Information) > > [The Cumberland, London](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-The-Cumberland.h21659.Hotel-Information) > > [The Tower Hotel, by Thistle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-The-Tower-Hotel.h2479.Hotel-Information) > > [St. Pancras London, Autograph Collection ®](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-St-Pancras-Renaissance-Hotel-London.h3907784.Hotel-Information) > > [Travelodge London Covent Garden](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Travelodge-London-Covent-Garden.h23389.Hotel-Information) > > [Sofitel London Heathrow](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Sofitel-London-Heathrow.h1740977.Hotel-Information) > > [Corinthia London](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Corinthia-London.h3849185.Hotel-Information) > > [Strand Palace Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-The-Strand-Palace-Hotel.h179.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo Royal Hotel London City - Tower of London](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Leonardo-Royal-London-City-Tower-Hill.h530052.Hotel-Information) > > [Copthorne Tara Hotel London Kensington](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Copthorne-Tara-Hotel-London-Kensington.h26145.Hotel-Information) > > [London Hilton on Park Lane](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-London-Hilton-On-Park-Lane.h26769.Hotel-Information) > > [Park Plaza London Westminster Bridge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Park-Plaza-Westminster-Bridge-London.h3113039.Hotel-Information) > > [Renaissance London Heathrow Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Renaissance-London-Heathrow-Hotel.h9944.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn London - Kensington High St. by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-London-Kensington-High-St.h9789.Hotel-Information) > > [Zedwell Piccadilly Circus](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Zedwell-Piccadilly-Trocadero.h42297074.Hotel-Information) > > [InterContinental London - The O2 by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-InterContinental-London-The-O2.h11518997.Hotel-Information) > > [Park Plaza London Riverbank](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Park-Plaza-London-Riverbank.h1183908.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo Royal London St Paul’s](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Leonardo-Royal-London-St-Pauls.h1457972.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn London Heathrow Terminal 2 and 3](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-London-Heathrow-Terminal-2-And-3.h33088275.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo Royal London Tower Bridge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Leonardo-Royal-London-Tower-Bridge.h4190769.Hotel-Information)
