Hotels near Shakespeare＇s Globe in London

Ordinary rooms have no windows and no views. The river view rooms look at the Millennium Bridge and the tate. It is very convenient to go to the South Bank. Go downstairs and directly cross the bridge. Activities in the north need to walk a little bit uphill, the bus station is very close, and the subway station needs to take two more steps. The cafe on the first floor of the hotel is very good. It is suitable for a cup of coffee and a croissant before going out in the morning. You can work downstairs during the day. Overall very recommendable.

I’d never stayed in a holiday inn before and found this hotel on booking.com. I booked to stay here for 2 nights for a weekend in London with my partner. Check in was smooth and quick. The staff were polite, efficient and helpful. Our room was very clean and just what we needed and the bed was very comfortable. The bathroom was nice and spacious and there was shower and hair gel available to use. There was a notice on the bathroom wall which I thought was a nice touch to say there were disposable razors, toothbrushes and shaving foam etc.. available from reception if you had forgotten any toiletries. There were plenty of clean towels in the room, a hair dryer and an ironing board and iron to use if needed. The only slight issue we had was that the TV remote was missing but I am not going to mark the hotel down for that at all because when I reported it to reception it was dealt with swiftly and the maintenance man was at our room within ten minutes with a spare one. It was nice and quiet where we stay we had no disturbance at all. Breakfast was good there was a hot buffet breakfast, with fruit, cereal, croissants, yoghurts and toast available along with orange juice and apple juice with a good range of hot drinks available. Our room was tidied after our first night which surprised me, but I thought it was nice. The bed was made while were out and the towels, tea and coffee were replenished as well as the bin emptied. Checking out was fast and easy. We had a nice stay and it was a great location for us and I would stay at this hotel again when visiting London again.

The Mercure London Bridge hotel exceeded expectations. Our Privilege King bedroom was very comfortable and well appointed. The staff were exceptionally attentive and helpful - nothing seemed too much trouble. The buffet breakfast was superb, very well stocked and of excellent quality. The position of this hotel is very convenient being roughly half way between Waterloo railway station and the Shard. I would highly recommend this hotel.

We had to stay one night in London and chose the London Hilton Bankside because it is a really clean, comfortable and quiet hotel. With gym room and swimming pool which is perfect to relax after a busy day. I would recommend this hotel regarding price for what you got is really good.

I stayed here while I was doing the London Marathon. I'd booked it quite far in advance (the moment I'd got a ballot place), so I got it for about as cheap as I could get it. Overall, I'm reviewing it from the perspective of both a London Marathon entrant and a regular guest. Some thoughts: LOCATION: The location is pretty good; you're a short walk from Southwark Bridge and the City, as well as the Shard, Borough Market, the Globe and London Bridge station on the south side of the river. Indeed, the fact that it was so close to London Bridge station (the trains from there are probably the best way to get to the London Marathon start lines) was essentially the reason I booked this place. All in all, the location cannot be faulted whatsoever. ROOMS: I stayed in one of the standard rooms, and it was fine. Nothing too much to complain about, but nothing too wild to rave about. The bed could have been a bit comfier, and I think the layout could have been slightly improved to have allowed more floorspace (maybe shrink the bathroom a bit and have a combined toilet/shower room?), but I get that this is a budget(ish) hotel in Central London and space is a commodity. DECOR: Themed to movies and musicals! A fun design, and there were some cool touches here and there, but it was a little cheaply done in places, which detracted from the experience. If this is what constitutes a price difference between ibis styles hotel a regular ibis hotel, I'd probably stick with a regular ibis hotel in future. STAFF: Staff seemed fine. Helpful if a bit reserved. BREAKFAST: Rather disappointing if I'm honest, especially from a marathon runner's perspective. The breakfast options are essentially continental, which in principle is fine, especially given that the clientele for this hotel seemed to be largely Continental European more than British. However, it would still have been nice if they'd offered a few uniquely British options, in particular porridge (I had to sneak in an instant porridge pot down to breakfast on marathon day, and saw other runners doing the same). Also, the quality of the stuff on offer generally speaking was a bit hit or miss. Powdery cakes, gloopy jam, a disorganised buffet, and some really odd things on offer (who has hummus and sliced red pepper for breakfast?!?). Another beef I had was the breakfast opening time on marathon day itself. I, as well as many other guests running the marathon, basically had to descend on the breakfast room at opening time (7 am), which was practically as late as we could have gone for decent pre-marathon fuelling for a start time of between 9:30 and 10:30 am. I really think they should have opened breakfast a bit earlier as a one-off. My parents decided to come down as well and stayed at a nearby Premier Inn, which started serving at 5:30 am. While I don't think they needed to go that far, starting breakfast half an hour to an hour earlier (akin to the weekday start times) wouldn't have gone amiss. Given that the

Beautiful and clean hotel with wonderfully attentive staff. We booked this hotel at the last minute (arrived less than an hour after booking because our previous hotel was not what we would expect it to be,) and we were immediately relieved upon entering the Westin. It smells like a spa, the staff welcomed our tired family with juice, and after checking in, Krishna (the front desk manager at the time) provided our children with teddy bears and passport books for them to collect stamps from staff throughout the hotel. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a more welcoming arrival. The next morning we were attended to by Neal in the hotel restaurant for breakfast, and he was very kind and considerate as well. The location of the hotel is by St. Paul’s Cathedral and plenty of pubs and eateries. We were very happy with the location, cleanliness, and safety of the hotel.

On arrival at the hotel we were greeted at reception and check in was smooth. We then entered our hotel room and it all went downhill. One of the pillows was filthy and we had to ask for it to be changed. After using the toilet we found that it did not flush, we told reception and we were informed this was a common problem. We then went out for the evening to see a show and on arriving back we found that there weren't any curtains in the room just a strip of material on a runner to pull across the window. The material only covered about 2/3 of the window which didn't provide much privacy from the building opposite and let too much light in. Myself and my partner both showered that evening and were almost scolded by the water. We were unable to turn the temperature down low enough. We then discovered that when cleaning our teeth there wasn't any cold water in the tap. Just a drip. We complained again. After a late night we were glad to sleep and not have to get up early. How wrong we were! At 8:15 the following morning we were both still asleep when there was a knock at the door. I woke my boyfriend and told him to go to the door. On opening it there was a woman stood there saying ”check out!” We said not yet and she just kept repeating ”Check out.” We asked what time check out was and she replied that she didn't speck English. We shut the door and checked on our booking which said check out was midday! We were incredibly cross that we had been disturbed and complained yet again when we went down to reception. As an apology we were offered a free breakfast. It was the worst breakfast, Very few cooked items available, most warming dishes were empty, no bread for toast and no pastries. No wonder they gave it away free! All in all a disastrous stay in an awful hotel. We will not be returning.

Very nice Hotel in a good location with good tube access for popular sightseeing attractions. . The hotel was very clean and tidy and the rooms were very nice and spacious too. Breakfast was very good with a good variety to choose from. Would definitely stay here again

The hotel room is small, and two people are enough. The self-check-in on the first floor is very convenient. I have lived here in New York before and I like it. Close to Tate Gallery and Boluo Market. Because the uber is used to go out, the public transportation is not very clear.

Hilton has been a preferred choice of hotel, but it's my first time checking into Doubletree Hilton, and the expectation mustn't be high. I requested a high floor room with a good heater, but I was given a level 3 instead, and the heater control is rather old school. I wasn't given the toiletries when I stepped into the room and when I asked for it, housekeeping just provided me some items but they are unable to give me the toothbrush kit cause I'm staying in a deluxe room which is the lowest tier. Then the towel and the linen has some stench smell like it hasn't been washed properly. Lucky I was there for 2 nights only. The hotel is located close to 2 metro stations, and tower Bridge is within walking distance. Not cheap for the stay but I'm still pleased with the counter stuff being nice. Still give it a 3.5 to 4 for location and service.
