Independent, The City of London hotels

"Excellent location. One night there was a lot of beeping from the street. "

"Beautiful hotel with great amenities. We enjoyed our stay and highly recommend anyone to come stay here. If we ever come back to London we would consider coming back to stay at sea containers again. "

Some staff seemed indifferent to inquiries about issues but most...

"Staff were exceptional and food was excellent."
