The Tower Hotel, by Thistle

10/10 Excellent
"Great check in service. I contacted the hotel before my stay to explain I was visiting for a special occasion. They provided lots of extra touches to make our experience fantastic. Definitely will be returning. You must stay in the rooms facing the bridge. WOW!"

"Very happy with room and breakfast but not sure why 'housekeeping' need to knock on my door at 8.25 am to ask when I'm leaving. This has happened to me several times."

"Had a lovely stay. Only downside was the shower drains had a bit of a smell to it. Other than that the room was good and the bed big and clean."

What is a historic hotel like in London?
Historic hotels give guests an opportunity to stay in a place officially recognised with a national historic designation.

What is the difference between a historic hotel and a heritage hotel?
These are quite similar. "Historic hotel" is a term often used in the US, whereas "heritage hotel" is common in Asia and Europe. Historic hotels tend to emphasise the building and architecture itself. Mainly heritage hotels draw meaning from the cultural value and how it shaped the community.
Do historic hotels in London have modern facilities?
Yes. Every effort is made to preserve treasured traditions and historic facades, but hotel interiors are fitted with modern conveniences and safety features. Guests should expect the popular amenities you'd get from a hotel such as private rooms with updated bathroom facilities, heating and air conditioning, and free and fast Internet. In London, booking a historic hotel doesn't mean you will stay in a place that's rundown.
