Staff were very helpful and accommodating after and the room was very clean and tidy. After having a long flight having these 2 things were nothing but a god send. I will endeavour next time to try breakfast at the hotel it did look more than appetising when I walked past in the morning. But overall this place was nothing but 5 stars from me.

The staff, the room and location was excellent. Parking area very small and lots of renovations which is clearly stated on their booking sites. Most floors are being renovated so if you’re ok with a bit of noise in the morning and don’t mind the renovations around you then it’s perfect. We will return, family room was a large.

Generous size room with large windows and a view of the River and Southbank. It was clean, neat and tidy and in a very convenient location. It was just a 2 min walk to Casino and only 5 min walk to Southbank, shops, food options, buses and trains, which made getting around really easy. A comfortable and hassle‑free stay overall.
