I stayed here on business for three nights and the room's were extremely average. Four of us stayed here and only one of us had a room that met the standards of the price we had paid. The rooms are an extremely long walk from the lifts and when my key card didn't work for the third time this became... more

Stayed here on a business trip, and had a terrible experience. The room was OK, just OK, and not worth the price I (my company) paid. Breakfast was good, but the worst part was the internet access--£15 PER DAY. What they don't tell you is that you can buy it at a "discount" rate of £10 per day (online, I... more

Stayed 2 nites for a business conference. This hotel has changed hands several times in a short time and may show up in reviews under different names. The new proprietors, Guoman, have upgraded several floors. The upgrades are a material improvement over others, but you pay $50 more a nite. Rooms are small and tight, although updated rooms are well... more

If you are the sort of business person who thinks that a good nights sleep is an important pre-requisite to a heavy meeting the next day, then this hotel is certainly not for you. I should actually like The Tower - its location is amazing both for the view, and for its proximity to the City business area. There are... more

We have just returned home from out stay at this hotel, and would like to say that our stay was more than satisfactory. The hotel was easy to access by public transport, check-in was efficient and friendly, and the view from our room on the 10th floor was way beyond our expectations. We looked out on to Tower Bridge and... more

Slap bang next to Tower Bridge and 10 minutes walk from Tower Hill tube station the Tower Hotel is a 1970's block which, from the outside looking in promises nothing, but from inside looking out has some terrific views. Our room on the fifth floor was very clean, well equipped but rather souless in character. However, the bed was large... more

not a very good exterior but brilliant ,staff very helpful and friendly and exceptional view of tower from room. Room very clean could do with a bit more colour , but well worth a visit. Two Wetherspoons nearby,one across the Bridge and one about 500 yards past Tower, both very good value with decent food. more

We spent 2 nights at the Guoman Tower during a weekend tour trip to London. The location is spectacular, right beside Tower Bridge. The decor in our room was dated and the furniture had tonnes of scratches and dents in it. Another member of our tour group said their bed was broken. It's definately time for renovations. OK if you're... more

This hotel, whilst having a great location near the Thames, is very poor - cramped old fashioned rooms which if you are on the first floor are also noisy early hours when the rubbish bins are emptied. The room in which I stayed had 3 single beds - all of which were long past overdue for replacing - the springs... more

2/2 found this review helpful

I stayed here with my spouse for 5 nights and found it extremely comfortable. We had requested a non smoking room and a king bed ahead of time, but not a view. When we arrived and I realized how close it actually is to the Tower Bridge I asked if we could have a preferred view. Luckily there was no... more
