Unfortunately there was work going on at the time of our stay which made the reception area quite noisy. The staff were brilliant though and brought us all a little drink. Also the noise you;d not be heard at all once we were in our room. Views of Tower Bridge from the restaurant were amazing. Would definitely stay again.
