A successful visit.

We were able to leave our bags with reception as we were a few hours early and the room wasn’t ready. The lady on the desk said it never hurts to ask. There was a defect in the bathroom that was quickly rectified by maintenance staff whilst we went for dinner. Breakfast was bob on.

Disappointed Birthday Present

We arrived at 2pm to check in, but the room wasn’t ready until 3pm. We left our luggage in the storage room and returned to the hotel around 9pm to quickly get ready to go out. However, upon checking in, we were told we didn’t have a room. After waiting for 1 hour and 20 minutes, we were informed that our room had been given to someone else. We were finally accommodated in a different room around 11pm—unfortunately, far too late to make our restaurant reservation. Unfortunately, the staff we dealt with were not very polite and came across more comical than professional, which didn’t help the situation. We did still head out, but opted to take a taxi as it was too late to walk to the Barbican, which is about a 15-minute walk away. The next morning, we went to breakfast shortly before it closed at 10:30am, arriving around 10:15am. While food was still available on the hot plates, most items were lukewarm and quite tough in texture.

Parking in their car park is not free, it's £10. This is obviously a very old building so not a lot of soundproofing 🙄. Breakfast is self service and was lukewarm at best. The staff were very friendly and helpful though.

Lovely, Historic Hotel

We thoroughly enjoyed our one night stay at this comfortable and very reasonable hotel. Staff were polite, decor was tasteful and opulent. It was very clean and the breakfast was very tasty. There was nothing to complain about.

Beautiful hotel!

After booking i read poor reviews and was worried. However, we arrived and was greeted by a lovely friendly receptionist. Couldn't check in as was too early so came back after getting some food and walked into such a clean and bright room. Everywhere was very clean! You can lock the bedroom door from inside which is a something i read on reviews you couldn't! Bar prices arent too bad at all and we had a live singer who was incredible. They have board games in the lounge next to the bar, we sat for hours and really did enjoy ourselves. The bar man Ed is amazing, great customer service and dealt with a situation that unfolded so quickly and safely. Also want to praise Milly, such a beautiful friendly girl! Unfortunately stood outside one night we were approached by a man who wasn't very nice at all, the night receptionist, Ed, Milly and another young gentleman dealt with this situation very well, especially Ed and Milly. Unfortunately the night manager was useless and although i appreciate it's extra work and paperwork, the safety of his staff and guests should of been his main priority but it fell on myself, my partner, Ed, Milly, the young lady behind reception that night and another member of staff. Rooms are very warm and i recommend taking your own fan. Aside from the heat, which the hotel has no control over and the night managers poor response to a situation, the hotel is beautiful, if there was more to do in the area we would of returned 100%!

An avarage stay

The room was way too hot with no fan provided. We couldn't open the window as there was a baby bird nested on the windowsill. Of course that's not the hotels fault but they could of provided a fan for the room. There was a massive crane doing works from early in the morning so the noise from that mixed with the heat caused me a terrible sleep. But, the bed was comfy, the room was tidy and the communal areas looked well kept and looked after and the staff were friendly.

The hotel is stunning specially that it was built 1863. The room a amazing size, guess does go by what you choose and paid for. Wifi has work all time I've been here. I am writing this review while I am still there. Staff have been super friendly. Highly recommend. 100% definitely coming back. Will like to add Aj at the receptionist has been super friendly and helpful.

This is the 3rd time we stayed usually stayed up in the tower suite. This time stayed in a standard double. Wallpaper and plaster falling off the wall, huge broken spring hanging down from infer the chair and window hardly opened so was extremely uncomfortable due to the heat. Was glad to leave and go home to a more ventelated place. Very disappointed seems our other stays have been wonderful, we even had our wedding reception here. Lovely receptionist did waver the £10parking charge.
