Staff are really kind and helpful, and the room is lovely
Lovely hotel with great staff who are aupper helpful and friendly.
A bit of a trek from Clapham Junction or Battersea (neareat stations) but you can alao get the bus.
Facilities are good, jnclusing a comfy bed, and rooms size is fantastic.
Very convenient location, it's not 5 star by any stretch of the imagination , more a good 3 star, lovely bathroom, lights had a mind of their own and curtains didn't keep the light out. Very quiet for London, great views of the river. Didn't see anyone in hotel at all, just reception staff on check in, which was bit eerie.

Good value for money, not high end
The hotel is certainly not at its peak. It feels pretty tired and weirdly done out, they haven't really made the best of an amazing location. Staff were very nice and friendly, my room was big with a great bathroom and all very clean. For the price I paid it was a bargain but don't go expecting anything too swish.
