If you want a hotel where you can relax in a lovely harbour with a nice glass of wine on an evening this is it... If you want a hotel where you can be close to the hustle and bustle of london - again... this is it! It can be as active or as relaxing as you like. The rooms... more

I stayed here a few years ago when it was a Thistle hotel (Guoman is a Thistle brand) and things have not changed much. I stayed in a 'refurbished' room - scuffed skirting, scruffy windows and torn curtains suggest that it may have been some gtime again. Typical of a lot of London hotels is the overpriced poor value for... more

My wife and I are just back from a four day stay. We had a double room on the first floor overlooking St Katherines dock. The room was a good size, very clean with good view. The breakfast was also really good, we only had to wait one morning for about 5 minutes, for the size of the hotel this... more

Went here for a week long conference. Had booked as part of the conference deal. I must have ended up in the smallest room possible. The double bed literally touched both walls, and there was no room for my bag. My colleagues who paid the same rate were in massive king rooms. When I requested a room change, they tried... more

This was the second stay for me, my husband and 9-year old, and we're going back in December. We found the staff fantastic - on our first visit it was our daughter's birthday and they rang our room to ask if she was allowed chocolates, or would we prefer her to have fruit? Not only thoughtful, but very parent-friendly approach!... more

Not good value for money. Breakfast terrible: Don't waste your tome going; you’d be better off going to starbucks across the road! Asked for an executive suite with a view of the tower: got a horrible old smokey room even though it had been stated on the website that it was renovated and was non smoking. Eventually was put in... more

It was my first trip to England and, although there on business, I could not have been more excited. I was in Reading during the week, but my kind travel agent moved me to The Tower Hotel Friday night as I didn't return to the States until Sunday. It being Friday, night, the check-in desk was swamped with too few... more
