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

Stayed for 3 days at the end of Oct. Ate in The Brassierie each night. Food was good, but pricey. Room was clean, but had 3 single beds making it cramped. Hard to get to window to see the nice view! Service and staff were all very good. The only disappointment was the buffet style breakfast. The food was rock... more

My partner and I stayed at "The Tower" for 1 night. We stayed on the fifth floor, room 565 to be exact and found the hotel to be very clean and tidy. Our room was recently refurbished and was very pleasant with many mod cons, particularly good was the underfloor heating within the bathroom area. My only comment with regards... more

Beautifully located near Tower Bridge with views on river or St. Catherine docks. Some repair should be done soon. Bathroom not so clean as it could be. Water-tap moving in every direction. Windows very old and I had feeling that after opening they will go down. more

The location of the hotel is the best in my opinion, as it overlooks Tower Bridge, and is a minutes walk from the Tower and St Katherine's docks. Across the Thames is Butler's Wharf which has lots of nice places to eat. The DLR line is minutes away also, as well as the thames boat stops The rooms are on... more
