"Hotel is fine but beware of the poor service from the `attached` Latino restaurant / bar!"

Whilst we found the hotel rooms were nicely decorated/clean and the service from hotel staff was first class, what we felt spoilt our stay was the arrogant attitude and poor service supplied by the `supervising barman` in the Latino bar. We now understand that whilst there is a close association with the hotel, this bar is not part of the hotel and we feel the 12.5% service charge is unjustified for the poor service supplied.

"Excellent location"

very welcoming staff. I got an upgrade because there was no twin room available. My nephew thought this was great as it was his first time in London. Would have been even nicer had we had a room with a view. Instead we got the railway track. The room was lovely and the staff appeared very soon to make up the sofa bed. Breakfast was wonderful and set you up for the day ahead.

"Extremely Good Accom and Stay"

I was very impressed with the quality of the Hotel and the breakfast in particular. We stayed in an executive room on the 10th floor, excellent view of the Thames, clean, spacious room and excellent modern bathroom. Overall no complaints at all and what I would expect from a 4 Star hotel, certainly worth the money

"Very helpful, friendly staff."

Hotel was excellent, clean and spacious but the main selling point was how firendly and helpful the staff were. Nothing was too much trouble and everything done with a smile. Only down side was the price in the bar, £16 for 3 cups of tea seemed a little on the high side even for London!

Could be picky about minor details but not worth mentioning, but very surprised that there were no protectors on the mattress or pillows. Room service menu was shabby and would have been more presentable in an hotel information folder which could contain places of interest and tours.

"Highly recommend this hotel"

Everything about this hotel is quality. The service from arrival, the rooms and the food was absolutely excellent. I would very much recommend staying in a room with a view over the river, the hotel is situated on the south side and the view across to the Houses of Parlaiment and down to the London Eye are fantastic. Well worth paying the extra.

stayed here for 2 nights during 1st week in May. From Ebi checking us in, to our departure we really enjoyed it. Bed was big and comfortable and the room excellent. Slight problem with the TV sound but we spent most of the time out so that didn`t matter to us. Would definitely go back.

"Fabulous views from the hotel if you pay the extra - well worth it for the experience"

Lovely Hotel with romantic views down the Thames. Staff were very helpfuul and polite. It was a bit far from the tube. We had to find the restaurant for ourselves and weren`t told what times. The hotel were not as good as others that did a little bit extra as we were on our honeymoon.

"Great value for money hotel"

Stayed for one night only. Room itself was nice - if a little on the warm side. Aircon didn`t seem to work and window would not open. Location good, close to several bridges across river. Liked the chino bar very much, very chic and superb cocktails. Staff at hotel were very professional and made everything seem easy. Would definitely stay here again.

"Extremely helpful staff"

The staff at the hotel are lovely, the rooms are quite plush considering the price we paid, the only drawback was a really smelly drain in the bathroom in 1 out of the 3 rooms we booked. If you manage to get a room with a view, they are amazing. The hotel is in a great position for all the major attractions in London with just a 15 min walk along the Thames riverbank opposite the houses of Parliament, down to the London Eye. Brekkie was pretty good too!

"Extremely polite and helpful staff - calm atmosphere"

The icing on the cake would have been a more central location as it is a dull walk to the tube and not many local restaurants.

"5* not really!"

English breakfast was cold and over cooked, wspecially the eggsand bacon. The room was not as clean as expected from a five star and the toilet lid was broken. On the other hand, the staff were friendly and pleasant, especially Abraham the evening door man.

"Clean, comfortable not as well situated for Theatreland as first thought."

Drinks hugely expensive £34 for a round of four drinks! Weekend of riots so situated a little outside problem areas. The disadvantage was that taxi fares from town added substantially to the cost of the weekend.

Surprised we had to queue for breakfast and that there were no curtains in the bedroom windows, only nets. Would let too much sunlight in during the summer and not obscure the bad weather in winter. Staff were excellent.

"The rooms were far to hot and windows could not be opened even just a little bit. "

The bar prices were way too expensive thus we drank outside of the hotel. In my opinion you would make more profit if you reduced the prices

First time that we have stayed in a Park Plaza Hotel, we stayed in the Lambeth London branch it was a most enjoyable experience. The room was well presented, comfortable and clean. The staff were very friendly and nothing was too much trouble. I will certainly stay in a Park Plaza Hotel again.
