Room was fine, great view, however dated. The desk set up had very little space to accommodate clothing if you didn't want to live out of your suitcase. The large TV took up 90 percent of the surface space for your items. No outlets in the bathroom for hairdryer or flatiron. The tub/shower is a very high step in/out for the elderly or short, big fall hazard, needs to be just a shower. The plumming needs updated as this is the only toilet in all of England we had to "prime" to flush.by flushing once and the 2nd time it worked. I gave it a 4 star as they were updating the lo by and we saw other floors had been updated hoping the 2nd floor is coming soon. The location is perfect for the towr bridge, Tower of London and the tain station.

The hotel is at a good location, a short walk to the “Tube” and easy to get to sites. The furnishings were dated and worn. The front of the bath tub was loose and the bathroom faucet dropped. I had a window with a nice view of the Tower Bridge. Overall the room seemed clean and the beds comfortable. The concierge gave us 2 universal outlet adapters with a $5 deposit for each

Great location and friendly staff. We had a lovely view of Katherine Docks from our room. We had a standard room & although it was looking a little tired the room was big and had everything we needed. Breakfast was £25 each so we opted for the Costa next door instead. It was open from 6:30am on a Sunday so a much cheaper option. Would definitely recommend this hotel.

The location of this hotel is great, not as expensive as other hotels in the area. But the hotel rooms are dated, they’re smaller than they look in the pictures, there’s like a weird smell on the towels and bed sheets. Staff was somewhat helpful, it was just an okay stay.

I’ve stayed here a fair bit and it’s usually good but this trip was awful, they are doing renovations in the foyer and the noise was awful, how the staff can work in that I don’t know AND no warning on their website . We had a room with not hot water and then moved to one with aircon not working, the second room was really badly maintained. Terrible stay this time!

Read the reviews (I did). The furniture has a lot of wear and tear. My TV had a broken screen. Rooms could be cleaner, especially in the bathroom (probably just needs to be updated). But, it is a wonderful location; you cannot beat the location. Staff are nice. Hotel is affiliated with the coffee shop around the corner so you can use any vouchers there. They need to do a bit more work on not letting the place seem to have a lot of turnover and wear and tear. That all said, I would stay again.

I’m really disappointed with our stay at The Tower Hotel. We booked a family room (Room 860) expecting a clean and comfortable space, but unfortunately it was anything but. On arrival, there were long hairs in the bathtub, hair on the bed, and the floors clearly hadn’t been hoovered. To make matters worse, there were flies/gnats in the room, and a constant beeping noise that made it difficult to relax. We contacted reception to raise these issues and also asked for an extra heater as the room was very cold. A member of housekeeping came up, picked a few hairs off the bed, left a heater, and then left again. The wider cleanliness issues and the noise were not addressed at all. I’m writing this while lying in the bed feeling itchy, uncomfortable, and unable to sleep—which really says everything about the standard of the room. Overall, this was a very poor experience and not what you would expect from a hotel like this, especially when travelling as a family. I would strongly recommend checking your room thoroughly on arrival or considering alternative accommodation.

If there are serious renovations happening it would be nice to know in advance. Although on arrival staff promised work would not start until 8am we were woken at 6:50 by the workmen emptying a skip right outside our window.
