The room was very clean and tidy, and perfect for my needs. Ideal location as it it right next to Borough Tube Station, so I could easily nip to other parts of London after my working day. Loads of shops near by and a pub literally on the doorstep, but don’t worry, no noise! Only slight gripe was that the fan was just a standard desktop fan that was very loud. Not the hotel’s fault that we now have heatwaves but something to consider as room upgrades.

Comfortable hotel in a good location. Beds in particular were very comfortable and the bathroom was bigger and better than expected. Staff very helpful, particularly since the room had not been 'made-up' when I arrived and the Manager had to step in to give it a deep clean and bedding change as housekeeping had failed to do so.
