The City of London, London hotel rooms at the Motel One

"Started off a bit rough after a long journey with 2 teenagers. Arrived at Heathrow and took the tube. We arrived early and they were able to store our bags while we got some lunch. I booked a big family room for us since this was a special occasion and it was a splurge. Room was ready a bit early - but when we got it- it was not the room I had booked for the expensive price per night. It was a standard room and old. Front desk kind of gave me a hard time and then gave us another room … but AC was not working and it was very hot out. We stayed in a smaller room the 1st night - and then they were able to move us to the room we had booked. We had to move to 3 different rooms- but in the end it all worked out and they were nice to treat us to breakfast the first morning. Once we were in the final room it was wonderful!! Modern and clean- and big enough to unpack for the 4 of us. Kids had their own sofa bed and tv…. Lobby was beautiful and the lampery bar and cocktail area was very nice to hang out and relax after a long day of walking. Very upscale hotel and it was a great location right by the Tower of London. Great pubs nearby and the tube stop was a 4 min walk. We loved it!! "

"Amazing anniversary trip"

"We arrived during a hot spell in London & were so excited they had air conditioning!! By luck we were given The Club Room. It felt the size of an American hotel!! Very comfortable beds, great, friendly staff!! And very helpful getting cabs, hauling & loading luggage & good suggestions for food in the area. It sits in front of a gorgeous former brewery, now event space. Very pretty!! 15 min walk to nearest Hop on Hop Off bus. There’s an underground stop about 5 min walk. Believe there’s a restaurant on site. We never checked it out. Very cute cocktail/coffee bar just to the right of the desk in the lobby. Beautifully decorated. We’d stay here again!! "

"One of the nicest hotels I’ve ever stayed in"

"Great staff, comfortable room and fantastic room bar. Hotel is starting to get a little tired in places"

"The breakfast buffet seemed pricy but it was convenient. When I saw the buffet it was superb. Good value for the money. Thanks"

"The room was comfortable, with sufficient drawers and space for our suitcases. The location is great and easily walkable to many sites. It is also right on bus lines and a short walk to the tube. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was great, with lots of offerings including individually prepared hot dishes. I can’t think of anything I’d change."
