Great Value/Well Done

I found the Apex to be a very pleasant surprise. First of all, the rooms are quite large by European standards, and the hotel is well appointed and clean. I'm a frequent visitor to London & have stayed all over the city. Although the Apex is a bit far from the more notable tourist areas, I actually prefer this location to other locales. It's safe, quiet & there are several Pubs & eating places close by, including a Prett just next door. If you're strictly there to shop or for West End shows there are probably more convenient locales, but with the Tower Hill Tube station a block away, you can get from the Apex to anywhere in Central London quickly and easily. I will definitely be staying at the Apex next time I'm in London.

If you're Using the Tube to travel from the Apex to Heathrow, change from the District Line to Piccadilly at Hammersmith. No steps to climb as both leave from the same track. Simply step off, wait for the Heathrow train and hop on.

Overall, a nice hotel

Good location right near the metro, slightly tucked away off the main road. Free wifi, good sized room with a sofa, closet space, etc. Bathroom somewhat disappointing but entirely functional.

The perfect long weekend getaway

Staff was extremely helpful and let us check into the hotel very early in the morning, as soon as we got into town. The hotel is excellent: modern, clean, comfortable, quiet, in a great neighborhood close to Tower of London/Tower Bridge/London Bridge/Monument, with lots of great, inexpensive restaurants nearby. Metro is REALLY close (2-minute walk) and has easy connections to anywhere in the center. You'd be at Piccadilly in 20 minutes. Great cocktails at the bar, spacious rooms, great overall value for the money. Will definitely stay there again.

Apex City of London Hotel

After a two week stay in other cities in England, the Apex was an oasis of civilization. It was close to the Tube and close to the Tower so traveling around the city and Heathrow was easy. It was the best hotel I have every stayed in.

A quiet harbour in the heart of the City

The APEX City of London Hotel may be a business hotel but its situated very good to explore London with The Tower and the London Monument within walking distance. The room was a bit small and really a bad surprise NO HEATING in the stylish bathroom. The always very friendly and helpful staff provided us with a transportable heater - not really a solution in a four star rated Hotel.

There are some nice places for breakfast nearby. Dining may be a bit difficult in walking distance. You find a TESCO supermarket open also in the evening on the way to London Monument .

great location

The best part about the hotel for me was the location. It was very close to the tube. My son was nearby going to school four stops away.
