Club Quarters Hotel London City, London

Club Quarters Hotel London City, London

8/10 Good
"This is a really lovely hotel and in a good location. It is nicely decorated and the toiletries in the bathroom are very nice. My only gripe is that the rooms were a lovely size but the beds in comparison were quite small. Lovely comfortable pillows but I couldn’t get over the size of the bed. I’m only 5 foot 7 but my husband is 6 foot 4, we are not large people but we struggled to sleep due to the size of the bed. Also, there is nowhere to hang your clothes as there is no wardrobe or hangers which I also found a bit odd and slightly annoying. The staff upon arrival checking in and checking out were very nice so can’t grumble. Overall, really nice and stylish property but could do with improving bed size"
