Hotel Riu Plaza London Victoria

8/10 Good

"Large room with a good sized bathroom. Both clean and comfortable. Breakfast more than adequate to get the day underway. Staff were pleasant. Excellent location near Victoria Station. Only gripe was the high cost of drinks at the bar."

Premier Inn Heathrow Airport Terminal 4

10/10 Excellent

"If you land at Heathrow after 10:30 the shuttle buses between terminals are not running so you’ll need to take a tube train to terminal 4 to find the hotel. They served drinks and a meal at 11:30 when I got there. Staff were very helpful and suggested a different shuttle for the morning as my flight out was early. Made a tough layover better!"

a&o London Docklands Riverside

10/10 Excellent

"I had a double bed room with a large balcony overlooking the Rotherhithe pier and across the Thames, Canary Wharf pier. It was a really nice touch having the balcony as the hotel was/is currently facing issues with their ac system not working around the hotel so I could leave my balcony door open for cool air as I slept. I did not have breakfast so I cannot speak on that. My room had bits of dirt here and there but nothing too crazy to complain to the staff about. Staff are friendly and helpful. Due to the convenience of staying right across from Canary Wharf (and it being a 2/3 minute boat ride away (free for guests staying at the A&O), I would definitely recommend staying here as I am already planning my next trip back."
