On arrival of the hotel we noticed the restaurant was closed for renovation, only to then find out the entire 1st floor was also under renovation. We stayed in a suite 209/211. The room we stayed in has wallpaper peeling off the walls, carpet was dirty, bathroom has black mould on the tiles all around the shower and the shower curtain was stained and disgusting. A toilet bush was leaning up againt the wall with no cover. Renovation work was on going until 8.30pm, which kept my 5 year old away. We were then woken at 6am by people talking above the room. I understand the building was built in the late 1800s but the siund was as though someone was shouting outside the door. The hotel smelt like a mix of building dust and curry. The two member of staff i spoke to were polite, bedding was clean and the carpark being included in the price are the only positives from this stay over. Photos show the state of the room.

We stayed here for a wedding for 2 nights unfortunately we were charged a 2nd time for our stay for 2 rooms / 2 nights and as we could not connect to the WIFI at first we had no choice but to pay but after a short while we demanded a refund after showing proof of payment in the APP. We were also told there was a flood on the first floor which meant that the communal areas were covered in building dust / debris on the carpets. After reviewing previous reviews it seems they're having upgrade works done and not a first floor leak! The restaurant was not open for business and the breakfast was served in the bar and was as basic as it gets however the cheese and ham was not covered in anyway to prevent cross contamination. We spoke to a helpful young lady called Lily who was happy to help with our queries. On checking out part of our party in a 2nd room were told to pay an additional £25 and felt very anxious as they couldn't leave as the booking was in my name. No explanation was given for the charge which after several minutes was all of a sudden dismissed. The double rooms are tiny, beds way too soft,shower is a trickle at best and a sewer smell in the bathroom. Although we thought it was good value for money at the time we wouldnt stay again for free.

An aging building looking a little sad and neglected Bed was comfortable enough but the furnishings quite basic.

On arrival at the hotel we could hear loud banging. It turned out to be a room renovation taking place so it wasn’t exactly relaxing. This continued until around 5pm. The room we were assigned had a terrible smell, like a rat had died in there. We were given another room which was better. However, the extractor fan in the bathroom didn’t work, the curtains were hanging off the rail, and the light in the bathroom kept flashing on and off. The room definitely needed updating. The carpet seemed quite dirty; I didn’t even like walking on it. The bed was falling apart. Definitely wouldn’t recommend and wouldn’t stay there again. The staff were friendly and helpful, and we were given a complimentary continental breakfast due to the issues we had experienced.

The hotel looks nice from outside, on closer inspection does reveals some tired exterior (like others I suppose). Entrance lobby is nice enough & clean & Receptionist was cheery & friendly. I had a twin room & staying for one night, as here for the weekend & just looking for a nice comfortable sleep (which I got). Firstly I should say that this met my purpose. Not too expensive but for the money I have stayed in better. Corridors, room doors & room itself was dated & could do with a refresh/upgrade but generally was clean. Part of curtains hanging off track. Carpets in hotel seemed to have some threadbare bits at tread edges. I did notice some other rooms were having work done so maybe that is happening over time - although was a bit noisy (thin walls) & another guest did complain after 5pm that work was still going on but wasn't for too much longer. Shower not the most powerful but hot enough. Refreshments & toiletries provided & clean towels. Beds comfy enough & were clean, decent mattress. Pillows a little thin for my liking. No air conditioning but we did have a fan provided & it wasn't too noisy. Surrounding area seemed nice enough (next to the Thames). View from room wasn't great but that wasn't what I was there for. Decent enough TV but live channels for some reason didn't work (except ITV ones)...free wifi so was able to use the SMART features to get some TV. All in all it was a decent enough stay & I'd possibly stay again if it got that refresh it needs.
