This is a good hotel with friendly and helpful staff in a great location. The only reason I marked it down was because the fire alarm went off in error while I was lying in bed at 11pm.

Dear Alex Thank you for the review of the hotel and the positive comments about the team. Unfortunately we did have a fire safety situation that the team dealt with as soon as they could. Unfortunately it wasn't before the bells sounded. I hope this doesn't put you off staying again in the future regards Edward Loader General Manager

Fantastic place to stay. The building is the former accommodation for the Navy's nurses and has been very considerately converted into a hotel, retaining many original features. Best of all however are the people who work here. Simply brilliant. Nothing was too much trouble.

Great value, super location
Fantastic location, close to all amenities. Yes the rooms are slightly tired and could do with freshening up but as a base for exploring Greenwich or further afield the hotel I think offers very good value for money. The showers are great with good quality large towels which isn’t always the case in some hotels. Breakfast is excellent with a good choice which is replenished constantly. Special mention to Averton who apart from working incredibly hard at breakfast also greeted everyone with a warm and friendly welcome. Would recommend wholeheartedly.

The perfect location for a one night stay in Greenwich. Only a couple of minutes walk from Greenwich Park, the Cutty Sark and numerous restaurants and bars.plenty of choice at breakfast. Nice looking bar which unfortunately we didn't get to try,as it closed at 10pm, but not a problem.Would recommend this hotel especially for it's location

Lovely location and facilities but poor breakfast
Only downsides were the lack of draft beer in the bar and the breakfast. Buffet style, no choice of eggs except scrambled. No mushrooms, bacon soggy and sitting in it's own fat, as were the suasages

This is this is definitely not a four-star hotel. Three star more likely. Definitely in need of some TLC as looking somewhat tired, lots of marks on walls et cetera. Impression from how hotel looks outside is definitely is not followed inside. Plus points - Brilliant location just by the entrance to Greenwich Park, next door to Queen’s house etc., - Less than a Five minute walk from Cutty Sark /10 minute walk from Greenwich Station - Loads of restaurants and shops within two minutes walk - Good, helpful check in - Very friendly and helpful receptionists - Very comfortable bed - breakfast is included, with hot and cold buffet which was pretty good. Negative points - needs some improvement as cracks showing. - Apart from breakfast, no restaurant for lunch & dinner or room service (but you can order deliveroo) - Had a room facing the main road, so very noisy. Motorcycles, Emergency vehicle sirens going past.. and windows are very thin (strong draft and no noise insulation) - Seriously noisy radiator- hissing all the time - No fridge in room - Fairly small room Paid 70 £ including breakfast, so not bad, and based on excellent location would stay again. However if had If paid full price - would not be happy as in that case would be poor value. It’s very annoying when hotels get a higher grade then they deserve
