Great hotel, good location close to Westminster and central London. We stayed in a suite which was furnished to a high standard. The executive breakfast was superb, a range of food options on the buffet, a spacious area and great views from the 12th floor to enjoy! Would highly recommend this hotel and hope to come back soon.

Beautiful modern style in a good location with great views of the River Thames and parliament. Easy to walk to places of interest. We received complimentary buffet breakfast each morning in the Executive Loumge on the 12th floor which had amazing views of parliament also.

Birthday weekend away. First class service from check-in to check-out especially from the always smiling Alejandro. We had some drinks and snacks from the bar which again had great service and chat from Ruddy. Room, bed and bathroom all very spacious. Our room on 14th floor had exceptional views up towards the London eye/south bank and the west end. Around a 7/8 minute walk to Vauxhall tube and train stations and 10 minutes walk the other way to London eye so great location for getting around the city. Would definitely recommend and will use again, thanks

A MUST FOR A STAY IN LONDON

We booked a room for two nights for a special occasion in London. On arrival we were booked in by Colin who was very friendly and couldn’t do enough for us. Having requested a Westminster view months earlier he moved things around to ensure we had the room we wanted. Having moved us, our room wasn’t ready so we were given a welcome drink at the bar whilst we waited. We returned to reception 90 mins later to find our room was still not ready but Alejandro who was now on reception, kindly upgraded us to a better room and access to the Executive lounge as an apology. We spent around 1 hour in our room when we suffered a power cut (just our room) I re-attended reception and Alejandro moved us again to a better room, still with a Westminster view. The level of service from all staff in the hotel was superb, from being greeted as we entered, the bar staff, room service and anyone we came in to contact with. Lovely hotel, great views, welcoming staff and I would visit again and recommend highly.

Fantastic hotel

Lovely hotel in a central location, easy walking distance to numerous landmarks. We had a few issues at check in and with our room, but reception staff were very helpful and resolved the issues quickly, and found us an alternative room. Room facilities were lovely, fantastic shower! Only criticism would be that the kitchenette was not well stocked; very little crockery (1 bowl between 3 of us, and even though I requested more these never materialised), and no provisions for washing dishes. Would definitely stay here again though.
