Reviews and Ratings
The hotel exceeded my expectations with its spacious single room, complete with a desk and storage space, all at a very affordable price. The cozy and warm ambiance added a nice touch, making it a lovely stay. However, the noise level from the nearby railway was a drawback.
The hotel was a cozy retreat, perfect for a short stay in the rainy November weather. The rooms were clean, compact, and warm, offering exactly what we needed. The service was top-notch, with quick issue resolution and a welcoming attitude. The location was incredibly convenient, right across from Waterloo Station and within walking distance of many attractions. The dining experience was satisfying, with delicious and filling meals. Overall, a great value for the money.
The hotel had a unique feature of being so close to the trains that we could easily see the driver and passengers, giving us a fun novelty value. However, it was quite noisy and too hot, making it a bit uncomfortable. The room was also small with limited ventilation, which was a downside.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On the positive side, the location was incredibly convenient, right by Waterloo Station and close to eateries. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay. However, the noise from passing trains was a real downside, and the dining options left much to be desired.
The hotel was what I expected for a 3-star rating and the price. The rooms had everything we needed, even after turning off the radiator, and I would definitely go back. The service, despite some issues like loading beer casks for 2 hours or a train being nearby, was overall helpful, with attentive staff doubling up to assist patrons. The location, directly facing Waterloo station, was a great base for exploring Southbank and other tourist attractions, but some basic needs required attention. The dining experience, although I had to attract staff attention to order, was nice in comfortable surroundings. Overall, the hotel provided value for money with unexpected extras like being next to the train station for easy access to tourist attractions.
The hotel is centrally located with a nice old-world charm downstairs, providing easy access to transportation. The rooms, although clean, were a bit small and noisy due to traffic. The service was top-notch and welcoming. Dining options were varied, but some dishes were not up to par. Overall, a good value for the money with a few drawbacks.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were quiet, comfortable, well-designed, and had the most luxurious shower I've ever experienced for the price. The bed was super comfy, and the bathroom was excellent. Despite staying in January, the room was warm, which was a big plus. The service was top-notch, as they were friendly, welcoming, and even helped me with my bags up and down the stairs. The location was ideal for exploring London on foot, bike, bus, or tube. However, the street noise was quite audible throughout the night, affecting my sleep quality. The dining experience was a mixed bag - some dishes were huge and delicious, while others were not up to par. Overall, a great value for money. The facilities were well-maintained, but the street noise could be a drawback.
The hotel is perfectly situated across from Waterloo station, making it convenient with plenty of luggage. The rooms may need some updating and can get a bit stuffy, so requesting a higher floor could help. The service was outstanding, with warm-hearted staff eager to assist and knowledgeable about the drink offerings. The location couldn't be better for accessing attractions or nearby eateries. Dining offered a good variety, especially with vegetarian options, although some days lacked certain fresh items. Overall, a great location with some room for improvement in room comfort and dining variety.
Staying on the 3rd floor without an elevator was a bit of a challenge, especially with the noise from outside in the early hours, but the room was very clean and in a great location for South Bank and Waterloo. The complimentary drinks selection in the fridge, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic, along with tea, coffee, and hot chocolate, was a nice touch.
I found the hotel to be a mix of good and not-so-good experiences. The rooms were uniquely decorated but suffered from noise due to the nearby railway, impacting my sleep quality. The service was generally friendly, although there were slight delays at reception. The location was fantastic for central London visits, but the noise from the train tracks was a downside. The dining offered excellent choices but some dishes were served cold. Overall, a decent stay with some minor drawbacks.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The room was superb with minimal noise and great cleanliness. Being above a pub added some charm, and the narrow steep stairs were manageable with a small overnight case. The room itself was lovely, featuring a big comfy bed and a spacious, clean layout.
The hotel is conveniently located near Waterloo station, making it easy to access various attractions around London. The rooms are spacious and offer a good breakfast selection, although some show signs of wear and tear. The service is mixed, with friendly staff but some issues with housekeeping. Dining options vary in quality, and facilities are generally satisfactory.
The hotel room had everything we needed, including a drinks fridge and biscuits; very cozy and perfect for a short stay in a rainy November. However, the lack of proper air conditioning in the middle of July was a challenge for my sister due to health reasons.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. While the rooms had many of the amenities you would find in an upper-class hotel, it was very cold as the day went on, and being towards a busy street made it impossible to sleep with an open window. Moreover, being at the top of the building without air conditioning made it very hot.
The hotel is situated in central London, near Waterloo Rail Stations, the Festival Hall, South Bank, and the British Film Institute. The rooms, though facing the railway tracks, were well-presented with four windows providing a separated area from the pub. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making the service enjoyable. The dining experience offered a wide range of quality items from modest to full British breakfast. Despite the busy bar area nearby, the location was excellent with double glazing to block out noise. The hotel facilities were satisfying, offering a comfortable stay overall.
