As a solo traveller who likes quiet and comfort, this was a nice surprise. I had a small en suite double bedded room on the ground floor. Compact, but with everything I needed, very clean and quiet, and a most comfy bed. Couldn't be handier to Borough station, but no train noise noticed by me. And the Café Riva downstairs... More

Dear Lesley, Thank you for staying with us and for leaving a review. It is very good to know that the benefits of word of mouth helped you to find us. From your review it sounds like you stayed in one of our single deluxe rooms. The rooms on the ground floor opened very recently and are proving very popular,... More

We stayed here for two nights in May and found it to be a brilliant little hotel. Right next to Borough tube station (i.e. the front door is about 4 metres from the entrance to the station - turn right and there you are) it is within walking distance of the Tate Modern (15 mins) and the amazing Borough Market...

Picked this hotel on the strengths of the reviews. 2 nights in a twin room with ensuite. The room was clean, simple but had everything you needed.

This hotel is immediately next to Borough tube. It is in a great location and no more than 5 mins from Borough Market with its stalls, coffee shops and thriving night scene.

My favorite thing about this hotel is where it is. You can walk to two underground stations, one quite close. Most things you want to see are a short underground ride away. It's also in a neighborhood with nearby restaurants, shops, money exchange, groceries, and other things handy to tourists. It's not posh, but it's nice enough, especially right near... More

Great spot, right next door to Borough u/ground station, lot's of pubs and cafes and only 10 minute walk to London bridge. Efficient staff, good WiFi (pay), comfortable and clean. We had a room downstairs behind the cafe which was very new and had a fantastic shower. The cafe opens early and makes a good coffee and breakfast.
