Staff were fantastic and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was good." - "Excellent location, especially for the event start location we were participating in. Easy to reach from the Ferry and plenty of parking. Food was wonderful; we had a delicious dinner and breakfast, staff were super helpful. Room was clean, bathroom was spotless and seemed brand new. Room even had aircon - unheard of even in expensive hotels in London. Wish we could have stayed for longer. Bed was probably softer than we would prefer - but it was warm and comfy nonetheless."
