Very accessible. Free taxi boat to Canary Wharf a big asset. Quiet hotel even though alot of guests. Lovely area outside along the river. Beautiful skyline view from room at night. Warm cookies on arrival!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort
The hotel was fairly nice, you can tell it was a little on the older side. Our room had a beautiful balcony and was a descent size for our family of 5. The elevators are extremely small and only accommodate about 3-4 people max maybe less if with luggage. The hotel does offer a complimentary ferry to the other side of the river which was amazing and used often!
I stayed there for a night, but it was a frustrating experience. The frequent faulty fire alarms in the middle of the night disrupted my sleep. The reception service was unresponsive and unprofessional. Before checkout, the housekeeping staff approached us for an earlier checkout, despite the “do not disturb” tag on the door.
Staff were really helpful and friendly. The hotel put on a ferry service over to Canary Wharf, which we used a lot and worked well. The room was clean and all amenities were there, complete with lovely views of the river and Canary Wharf. Breakfast was tasty, parking was easy and cheaper than other areas. Would 100% recommend the hotel.
