Hotel Saint London impresses many guests with its convenient location right next to a tube station like Aldgate and Liverpool Street, making it easy to explore the city. The rooms are often described as clean, well-equipped, and of good size, sometimes even offering pleasant views. While some guests have noted that the air conditioning didn't always function perfectly, many appreciate the available amenities like Nespresso machines and comfortable beds.

a perfect anniversary!

gorgeous room super clean room bottle of wine
the room felt so super clean. it really was like a wonderful hotel rather than just some hotel. we was very kindly given treats and a bottle of wine to celebrate our anniversary, , made me blush. little things down to having makeup wipes and toothbrush in the bedroom felt tender.
i paid for a room, that stated 'king bed' however it was only a single. i was so sad about this. i wanted to sleep with my head on his shoulder.

a romantic city escape

tube station friendly staff attentive staff
I adored the location next to the tube station. It made exploring effortless. the staff were consistently friendly. i particularly loved the amazing view we got once upgraded. i must also add that all staff were very attentive to our needs.
The hotel bar needed more higher seats outside. This would greatly enhance the experience, and a gluten free ale on the drinks menu would have been a plus.
Service

reception desk staff were polite and helpful, ensuring a smooth check-in process. cleaning service was excellent, maintaining the room impeccably throughout my stay. the digital setting for the do not disturb function was a convenient and welcome feature, removing the need for a physical sign.

the hotel is right next to the aldgate tube station, providing effortless access to the city. proximity to tower bridge offers opportunities for sightseeing. the lifts operated efficiently, ensuring minimal waiting times. the hotel is in a very quiet area, especially noticeable during the evening hours.
Location

the hotel's location is superb, with the entrance to the underground station a mere 20 meters from the hotel doors. exploring the city on foot proved good, especially with the striking architectural blend of skyscrapers alongside historical buildings. it offered convenience and beauty.
