"Great location, we walked from Vauxhall station. Beautiful views of the river and walkable to Big Ben and London eye. Nice to be away from the swarms of tourists. Even tho the facility was nice and our room was nice and clean, every time we stepped out our room door there was a pile of laundry, sheets, bedding, cleaning carts. Felt odd to leave that in the hallway where guests walk through. Also they were able to give us an extra 30 mins to check out and stored our bags which was a perk so we could explore the city on our last day."

"We arrived at noon, too early for check-in but when we spoke to the concierge he said a room was ready & we could book-in now. But only internal rooms were ready & we took one. in hindsight this was wrong as we overlooked noisy machine equipment which made a constant noise & made sleeping difficult. The bedroom & shower room were both a bit small but nothing we couldn't live with. Breakfast was good with plenty of choice & lots available. Even though the hotel was very busy we were seated quickly. We had a lemonade & a coke in the bar, very small measurers & expensive. Even though we ordered at the bar & took our drinks away ourselves I was amazed to see a service charge added to the bill. Just not worth it. Housekeeping didn't service our room on our 2nd day and it was a bit of a faff to get it sorted. Now we know all this we probably will go back as we know the pitfalls to avoid."
