"Everything about the hotel itself was great—clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. However, there was an issue with the booking through Expedia, as the hotel had not received our reservation. Because of this, we had to wait until the standard check-in time, even though we had requested an earlier check-in. This caused some inconvenience, but overall the stay itself was pleasant."
"Great location. Everything is pretty much electronic (check-in/check-out) so you really never speak to staff. The tea/coffee in the room leaves much to be desired. Otherwise is was a clean and nice hotel in a good location."
"The tv in the room didn’t work. One of the lamps was broken. To use the cold tap you turned it on then had to turn it off again to make it work. There was marks all over the bedroom walls and on the windowsill. This is the 3rd time we have stayed here and the first time we have been disappointed."
"This hotel is a little off the beaten track for me as I normally stay close to Fitzrovia in London. However, I wanted a hotel with a gym / pool, and this was situated an easy walk away from Westbourne Park underground station (a few stops on from Great Portland Street station).
And what a pleasant surprise I had.
This is a funky, fresh hotel with brilliant facilities. My room was a great size and included a small kitchen. The air con in my room was excellent and the gym is good enough for a solid workout.
Added to this was a cinema room and pool (neither of which I used) and a fabulous canal side restaurant (the rolled lamb belly was unbelievable).
This was all topped off by EVERY single member of staff being kind and considerate.
If you want a hotel that is a corporate chain - this is not for you. If you want great facilities in a relaxed, non pretentious atmosphere, this is worth a go."
"Sea Containers is my absolute favorite place to stay in London. It is in a really quiet location on the River Thames and the views are spectacular. It’s a lovely stroll down to the Tate Modern and Borough Market. I will not stay anywhere else. "
