8/10 Good
"I was a solo traveler (female) and booked the King bed with Tower view. The space was absolutely perfect for one person, I stayed 5 days. My room was on the 4th floor and I was WOWED when I looked out the window. This was the same reaction from everyone I FaceTimed with and the cabbies I showed a picture to. One thing not advertised is the tower view includes the castle where the crown jewel is. pros: under bed drawer can fit a suitcase if you put the spare pillows on the bed, shower is not cramped, you feel safe in the area, stunning tower view, self check in/out so no waiting, restaurant and coffee shop within hotel on first floor, the Underground is directly behind the property, two very short blocks to the pier, right across the street has an ice cream and coffee kiosk and a block away has souvenir stores and restaurants, and the remaining portion of the London wall is also right next door. Cons: other than the tower and castle, thereโ€™s not really other attractions close although the amount of transportation options makes up for it. I wish the TV was setup like a traditional hotel versus relying more so on your Netflix account but the reality is, the room should only be to sleep and shower. Next time, I plan to stay closer to bigger attractions but donโ€™t get me wrong - the hotel is beautiful, in a quiet area if thatโ€™s important, and if you donโ€™t mind opting for the transportation- absolutely stay here."
