Apex City Of London Hotel

Nice Hotel With Great Location

Hotel located in a great location for a short stay or for sightseeing. Common areas were very clean and had recently been refurbished. Limited extra amenities & sterile appearance. Staff reserved ( typical for British ), but helpful. Breakfast available, but vastly over-priced. Room size was adequate and very clean. Handicap-accessible. Few nearby restaurants. Reasonable access to public transportation, but obtaining tickets and passes was an adventure. Overall, we were pleased and would recommend this hotel to others.

Great for Business Trips

Everything about this hotel is great with exception of one thing: during the night the HVAC turns off so unless you manually turn it on the room will become a bit stifling. The service is excellent and the location is superb (next to everything but not overrun by tourists). The rooms are clean and well appointed.

Great small boutique hotel

This is a very nice hotel with nice comfy rooms and very friendly staff. Rooms are reasonably large. There isn't much room to stretch out, but there's a nice sofa, coffee table and work station. Bathroom is great, with both a shower cabin and tub. Nice bathroom amenities as well. Wi-fi was not working for me (they were fixing it), but there was ethernet connection in the room, so I was fine. This time around, I was in London on business, but I would definitely stay at Apex for a vacation holiday. It was close to the business center and some tourist spots (which I couldn't visit, thanks to my schedule). Recommended, and I would go back if I have an opportunity.

nice hotel near tower of london

the room i got was a budget room. meaning its in the basement. no window. so if you like to get back and sleep and watch a little tv, then budget is good. it was fine for us. we would get up leave all day and come back sightseeing and get ready for bed. the only benefit of a window is to look at what the weather is outside to prepare according. over all the hotel was great. nice gym. flat screen tv in the room. free wi-fi, very modern, bathroom had everything you needed. quiet. and close to the tube.

Great Room- Needs some improvements

Overall, the hotel was beautiful and modern and our room was great. However, the bed was not that comfortable (you could feel the coils when you were laying down) and the despite their advertising a "pillow menu", when I asked for an alternative to the down pillow I had in the room, I was told the only other pillow they could find was the sofa pillow wrapped in a pillow case. (Which was not an improvement). The room service options were limited and pricey. However, despite a 2pm check in time, we were given our room keys when we arrived at 10am.

Great Location

This hotel is in a great location very close to the Tower Hill Tube Station. We were very happy with the room, especially with the size of the bed-king size.

Excellent Choice

This is an excellent small hotel and a great value.

Nice surprise in the City!

Found the Apex to be a great little boutique hotel in the City. Friendly staff, great room, clean and quiet. Better than expected!

Great Location / Comfortable / Awesome Shower

Great location next to the Tower of London. We were able to take the tube (Tower Hill)or just a short 400m walk to take the Thames Clipper boat to Westminster on the River Thames. Room was super clean and comfortable with unexpected extras: 1. Great bathroom and huge shower with huge bottles of spa products - shampoo, conditioner, body wash, lotion - that smelled great; 2. Even a speaker in the bathroom, so bring CDs and you can listen to either the TV or CDs/DVDs while you freshen up; 3. Probably 50 DVD titles to watch if you are bored (ie bad weather, can't sleep, etc.) for free 4. Very comfortable bed and super clean everywhere 5. Almost a loft like feel with no hint of any cheap hotel furniture anywhere Across the street is a big pub serving breakfast at reasonable prices with a huge menu. There are also grocery stores a 5 minute walk away where you can get pop, etc. and avoid paying a fortune in the tourist areas. This place is a sure thing; I won't stay anywhere else when I am in London.
