Top The Gherkin Hotel Reviews

The Tower Hotel, by Thistle

10/10 Excellent

"Great location."

The Derby London City, Curio Collection By Hilton

8/10 Good

"Property clean , rooms had everything , chose one with view , was a bit extra , view top of shard . Plenty tea and coffee in room. Breakfast good , as expected for 4 star hotel , usual faire . On the minus side , breakfast tables were not cleared , we arrived about 9.30 and were shown to a clean table , but by 10 /10.30 all tables either occupied or had dirty dishes , even saw one guest clearing their own and piling on table next to them . Cooked food was frequently topped up but other areas neglected, had to scrape last remaining cubes of watermelon and pineapple from the bowls . Another point to note is only usbc points available in rooms , probably not an issue for most but I had only brought a usb charging cable so could only charge phone sitting in reception So on the whole good stay , with couple of areas could improve, decent value for money for a London hotel if you can get some discount on standard rates ."

Novotel London Tower Bridge

10/10 Excellent

"I was looking for a 4* hotel in central London for a weekend away with my wife. I wanted one within a short walking distance from a tube station and one with a breakfast buffet and modern looking room. Novotel ticked all the boxes and ended up being fantastic. The room was very clean the wifi was faster than i expected amd all the staff were friendly. Next time i head down to London i wont have to do all the research again as this is exactly where i will be staying!"
