Didn’t receive service worthy of a five star hotel. Went to eat dinner at the in house restaurant and saw a rodent after we had ordered our meal. I asked for our order to be cancelled as I didn’t want to eat after what I had witnessed. That seemed to be an issue and they were not happy. The check in was abrupt and I was told absolutely zero about the hotel. I was given one room key, so I asked for another. That seemed to be an issue and the second room key didn’t work. Room service ends at 21:30. The room I had booked was nice. The level of service is not worthy of a five star hotel. Great location if you are visiting London. Right on the riverside and tower bridge is less than a five minute walk away. The property looks really nice but the service leaves a lot to be desired.

I wouldn't put this as a 5 star. It is a boutique 4 star. Room was lovely with very nice amenities. The breakfast is not great. The front desk staff are very nice, but not very helpful with surrounding area restaurant recommendations. The man I spoke to seemed annoyed with me when I asked. I'm not sure I would stay again but it was nice for two nights.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
I could only describe my experience as disappointing. This was a trip for my husbands birthday and the staff were just not great. You felt as if everyone was new and didn’t know what to do. The hotel was 1/2 empty but we were given a tiny room in the attic. On the second day we went out and returned to find the room was not made up. On our way back to the room we meet several staff still doing rooms. When we left to go out several hours later all the staff had disappeared. We raised this with reception and while explaining to the receptionist, who kept asking if I put the do not disturb sign on, a young man appeared, no introduction just launched into a explanation about why my room had not been done. He was rude and aggressive. The next morning at breakfast someone had an accident and several croissants were knocked into the floor. When we left 45 mins later they were still lying there. Now none of this is dreadful but when you stay in a 5 star hotel you expect a better experience

The hotel was nice, but didn’t feel like a 5 star hotel. It’s a step above a decent Marriott in Chicago. The shower was very nice though.

Stayed one night. The hotel is in a great location and nicely restored. We stayed on the ground floor in a room just next to a sidewalk. We heard workers and late night revelers passing by. The room was clean and the staff was attentive in a superficial way. Only the staff in the morning listened to my feedback on the room. Nice touches that you would find in a finer hotel. Not worth the money though.
