This hotel is well placed for a tourist visit to London, we were celebrating my husbands 50 birthday and there was some excellent restaurants in the surrounding area and it was a pleasant walk to any and all of the attractions. The only issue with the hotel is the noise from outside, early morning, bin collections etc, and in the evening the surrounding area is buzzing especially at weekend! The receptionist when we were there was covering and normally was at the Tate modern prem inn, but she was great, nothing was too much trouble. We had room 302 which was on the top floor at the end of the corridor and although it was next to the stairs, it suffered from little internal noise from other guests. The pub next door as very busy and although the fish and chips were excellent it has a limited menu, more options would have encouraged us to eat there more often, however on Saturday evening we did ask them to reserve a table for a set time and they did this, so can't fault them on that, cheap budget option, but you know what you are getting with a premier inn, would recommend to anyone looking for a great location for a goody, boozy weekend in the capital.
