The room was clean and had all necessary amenities for a short stay. The location is the highlight: very nice and safe neighborhood and easy to commute to any area of London.

Lovely clean (and very attractive) room. Staff very courteous and helpful.
Excellent location and the staff was so pleasant to deal with! If you enjoy a good walk you are able to get to some major attractions fairly quickly! Our room was clean and a cozy stay! Will be our go to place when visiting London! Couldn't recommend enough
Really lovely room, big and spacious. The bed was really comfy and the area was quiet considering it's so close to London Victoria. Easy check-in, we were a bit early and they accommodated us regardless. Will definitely stay again, thank you.
we have just had 3 days at bower house.we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.our room was very clean with a comfortable bed.had everything in the room that you need from hairdryer to ironing board.would highley recommend 😀
Convenient location to Victoria Station.
Clean, tidy, quiet area. Has what you need for a brief overnight stay.
Was in “basement room” - far more spacious than I was expecting. Quiet area. Short walk to station.
No issues. Check in is via their sister hotel around the corner.

Highly recommend, we stayed for one night and the room was great, located only a short walk from Victoria tube station in a quiet neighbourhood
This cozy little room was in a great location. Perfect for a short stay for a single person. Very close to Victoria Station lots of restaurants and shops nearby.
This was a wonderful property, especially the staff. Very comfortable, clean, and convenient. We love it and would absolutely return! Thank you Bower House!
Nice clean property in nice area. No air-con but lots of fans provided and switched on when we got in the room. Strange system of having to check in and out at a different hotel on a different street around the corner.
I really enjoyed staying here. it was affordable and comfortable. i didn't mind that we had to check in else where. the only downfall is that it had no air-conditioning, we just opened the window day and night. also, it was far from downtown London but we did use public transportation so that was ok
Perfect for travelling around london being close to Victoria. Room was comfy and clean, loads of places to eat and get a beer. Staff were super helpful and I booked again for November to see a play close by.
