“Its proximity to Tower Bridge and the Tower Hill tube station is a significant asset, making city navigation remarkably convenient. The staff consistently impress with their genuine helpfulness, and the restaurant food, particularly the à la carte options, stands out as delicious and reasonably priced. While some areas show their age, the comfort and the truly stellar views from select rooms, especially of Tower Bridge, create a compelling experience.”
