Location was great, rooms were lovely. The staff was not the best, it seemed that helping you or serving you was disturbing their day. The best service was from the guys behind the bar, those guys were great.

Carpets were dirty and old, no robes, slippers etc and the towels were extremely thin. The rooms were not well maintained, rust on fixtures and hardware. Tidy but very outdated. Gym was decent in comparison to other hotels. Staff were friendly.

Bed was comfortable. Coffee from bar was excellent. Unfortunate construction nearby made sleeping in hard. Also staff wanted to change mattress on the last day I was there. Couldn't it wait an hour or two?

Great Hotel in Southwark borough close to London bridge bus and tube stops and walking distance to borough market. Great rooms, staff and breakfast. I will definitely continue to stay here when in London as it is centrally located and very much worth the price compared to other hotels of this caliber in London.
