“This property stands out for its modern design and Southwark location, making it suitable for business and leisure; its meeting facilities accommodate up to 60, and nearby attractions include the Tate Modern. The on-site New York Italian restaurant and Loft add to the appeal with chic dining options. A solid choice for those prioritizing location and contemporary comfort.”

great location birthday cake comfortable room no hot water missing wines dusty corners
The location was superb! borough market and the shard were just a quick five-minute walk. they delivered a delicious cake to my room since it was my birthday. That was a lovely touch. the room itself was comfortable and well-appointed.
the hot water wasn't working on my second day, and the staff didn't seem to care much. the bar ran out of most wines. i found dusty corners in my room, and basic tea supplies were missing.
