We had a fantastic stay at this quaint and comfortable inn!! It was located in a great location of the beaten path with easy access to London’ s public transportation. We could also walk to a variety of sites. Staff very friendly and our room was clean and cozy. Would highly recommend this inn to family and friends.

Clean room, comfy bed, friendly staff, next to the 100 bus route to St Paul’s. Ideal for an overnighter. I also ate in the Dockers Inn bar - which offers a varied and reasonable menu serving until 8pm.

Was a bonus break for me and my partner, because of circumstances. Compact room, but functional... one flight of stairs. (Better if Room 1 was just occupied by one... which was what I booked initially.) There were a few things that could easily be addressed.. the remote had no batteries (with a spare with flat batteries!), the one blind needs attention and has a 'temporary fix', there is a fan (and it was unexpectedly a hot Sept. day), the bathroom fan didn't work, there isn't really room for a chair, but with thought.. something could fit? (maybe?) No breakfast, but a fruit&nut bar and juice was provided. Having the bar downstairs was convenient...and there's a nice trendy Tavern across the road. Coffee shop nearby also trendy (but for us, disappointing as no sweeteners...and no apology from the Urban Baristers, but 2 minutes further a fab place called Ali's. Bus stops close by as well as Wapping Underground. In all a good stay.

What a lovely little guesthouse. Separate entrance to the pub so you can come and go as you please. The room was just lovely with all the essentials provided (bottles water, tea, coffee, breakfast bars ect…) the pub was really friendly, welcoming atmosphere.

Good find for location

It was much nicer than I’d expected and I had chosen it due to the distance from where I needed to be. Bathroom was big, very clean and had everything I needed. Not sure if it had a hairdryer but I always travel with one so that was fine. Had a kettle and very sweet welcome coffee/tea making tray and a few complimentary snacks. Fabulous big bed. And as a surprise a little private roof terrace screened for privacy. The not so good bits - no obvious air con ( I was there in a heatwave) and generator directly outside window. So the generator was rather noisy. Did have things like Netflix but the previous person’s login was there, so decided not to use it (no idea if it still retained the password) but I don’t want to take that chance. I think if I had to suggest any addition, it would be a mini fridge for if you wanted to store any milk, drinks or food..

Lovely room

Beautiful room, with a really lovely little outside deck connected to our room. Only issue was there was no stand up shower and one of the pillows was dirty. Other than that it was amazing, little porridge pots for breakfast with orange juice and water, coffee, tea, hot chocolate. There was a hair dryer and shampoo, conditioner and shower gel.

Lovely place to stay. Staff were welcoming, friendly and helpful. Accommodation was very nicely decorated, modern and clean. It would have been nice if there was a chair in the room, as the only place to sit was the bed or the sofa bed, which was situated under the television. The sofa bed, although comfy to sit on, wasn't very comfortable to sleep on as there was a ridge once the back had folded down. There also wasn't any bed linen, such as a sheet, to put on the sofa bed. Duvet and pillow were provided. Food in the inn was excellent, with a great choice on the menu and reasonably priced.

The property is in a quiet area of Wapping, which is already a very quiet London neighborhood. The room was nicely stocked with amenities, and staff were eager to please by replacing everything on a daily basis. The bed/linens were clean and comfortable. We had some difficulty with the TV, but, for the most part, it was fine (and, after all, we weren't there to watch TV.) If you stay at Dockers Inn, the only think you need to know is that the pub beneath parties on Friday and Saturday night, including DJing and singing. This appeared to end promptly at midnight. It wasn't a problem for me; I slept through it. My wife, on the other hand, was up until midnight. Honestly, considering the deal that you're getting by staying here, it's a minor inconvenience. And it was a GREAT deal.

Standard of bad inn

The inn has a good location: close to subway, many pubs and restaurants, 20 min walk to Tower bridge, in a quiet residential area. The bed is great: big and comfortable. The staff is not friendly. The pub of the Inn is not cosy, smelled like toilet with some weird people visiting (drinking vodka). I went to the one 4 min walk from the inn and loved it a lot more. The cleanliness of the room is not great: I had a candy package inside the radiator, hair in the bathroom, the porridge pack was open and there were ants on the cupboard where it was. Although the bathroom is very modern, the fact that you need to hold the shower and can't fix it is bad. The water gets all over the bathroom and it's not convenient. But worst of all - I came in the room at 10pm hoping to get some rest, but the music from the pub was EXTREMELY loud. You have a feeling of siting inside the pub and cannot enjoy TV or conversation. I asked when the pub closes and the receptionist said 10, but the music was on until past 11. I read the reviews of people staying in King room that the sound is manageable, but in the Family room (facing the other side) it is not! General sound insulation is bad: you hear people walking around the rooms, I had a ventilation by the window which was also making sound all night long. I am totally not a light sleeper, but I was waking up from noise all night long.
