Quiet Stay near Borough Market
quiet room comfortable bed great location
The location is fantastic, very close to Borough Market. It is also near Tate Modern. The room was quiet, i stayed on the top floor (7th floor) at the back of the hotel and even had a balcony. I got a good night's sleep thanks to the comfortable bed.
I found the self-service coffee machine at breakfast to be limiting. I would have liked a wider range of coffee options from the staff.

Warm welcome and superb location
friendly staff refillable water nearby tube
The staff were friendly and helpful. The refillable water station impressed me. The hotel is located within walking distance of several main attractions. A nearby tube station provides easy access to other parts of the city. I also liked the bus stops just outside the hotel.
The shower entrance felt a little inconvenient. The placement of sockets within the room could be improved. These are relatively minor issues.
