"This property was absolutely stunning! It is in the perfect location right in front of the tower bridge but tucked away. It’s got adorable surrounding restaurants and shops and an easy walk to the subway. We stayed in the upgraded room, which I highly recommend! Beautiful and very spacious for the square footage in the shower was also lovely! This is a hidden gem!"
