Reality check
Some travelers are disappointed by the lack of hotel-style room service or a lobby bar, and the 'Urban View' rooms feel like a letdown compared to the river-facing ones.
- You are traveling with family and need a washer/dryer and full kitchen
- You are a view snob who wants the iconic London Instagram shot from bed
- You prefer privacy and autonomy over constant staff interaction

Zimmerwunsch-Genie – kopieren & einfügen
“I am booking specifically for the view. Please assign a 'River View' apartment on the 6th floor or higher to ensure clearance above the walkway and trees. If a River View isn't available, I would prefer a high-floor Tower View over an Urban View.”
FAQ & Geheimtipps
Alles, was Sie vor der Buchung wirklich wissen möchten.
Is there a restaurant on site?
No, but there is a Coppa Club (famous for its igloos) right next door and plenty of options at St Katharine Docks.
Can I get an early check-in?
It's difficult due to the size of the apartments and cleaning time. Plan to drop bags and explore if you arrive before 3 PM.
Is it good for kids?
Excellent. They provide cots, high chairs, and even a 'Cheval' stuffed horse. The washer/dryer is a lifesaver for families.
How much is the deposit?
They take a pre-authorization on your card upon arrival (usually around £60-£100 per night) for incidentals.
Do the windows open?
Yes, most apartments have balcony doors or windows that open slightly for fresh air.
Is there parking?
No on-site parking. You have to use the Tower Hill public car park nearby, which is expensive (~£50/day).

💡You can watch the Tower Bridge lift schedule online and time your balcony drinks to match.
💡The master bathrooms often feature Hermès toiletries, a rare touch for apartments.
