Top Southwark Hotel Reviews

citizenM London Bankside

10/10 Excellent

"Always a good welcome, friendly staff, and very well set up compact rooms. The lack of glassware in the room is a little annoying - having at least two glasses would be very useful, though the bar will always give you one to take to the room. Breakfast is well worth the money - plentiful and well presented, and the working / dining space downstairs is very friendly and well laid out."

Shangri-La The Shard, London

10/10 Excellent

"Everything about this hotel was pure perfection. It was perfect from start to finish. Every staff member was so friendly and attentive - from those on the ground floor with the concierge to reception to the room maids/cleaners. We stayed at this hotel last year for one night but had to visit again this year for two nights to properly appreciate the hotel whilst celebrating our wedding anniversary. We were not disappointed. It was beautiful and outstanding. The whole hotel was spotless. There were no tired fittings or furniture. Everything is well maintained and looking as good as new. The breakfast was amazing. And the views? Wow!"
