Bermondsey Square Hotel - A Bespoke Hotel

Nice hotel, well located, great staff. Breakfast was very good, next step up from Holiday Inn Express, which for the price I wasn’t expecting much at all. Free water, biscuits, fridge and desk in a very spacious (for London) room. Nicely decorated bathroom and bar dining room. Only down sides were windows not opening only temp control so room felt “stuffy,” lack of sufficient lighting in the room and bedroom walls looked quite dirty in places. The last one is a bit strange as rooms were clean and tidy and appears to be have been/is being decorated recently and as mentioned, the bathroom was lovely. Staff were all great and helpful. After staying at a number of hotels in London this one rates very highly on value for money.

When I booked this hotel I was a little suspicious how can you get a 4* hotel with breakfast in this area in December for such a great price…it must be something wrong. But it wasn’t, everything was excellent! Of course I can’t compare this hotel to some premium hotel chains cause that wouldn’t be fair, but for the price you pay, you get really the best room, breakfast, comfortable bed, daily housekeeping, great view (the Shard), own bathroom, ect. It really contributed to overall London experience, we loved it!

The beds

The hotel is conveniently located about 2.5 km from central London. There are several bus routes within easy walking distance, and a tube station 15 min walk away. A small supermarket is located opposite the hotel (closed for renovation in Feb 2025) and multiple cafes and restaurants nearby. A laundromat situated 300 meters away. Approximately 1.1 km from the Bermonsey markets. Reasonable breakfast and rooms serviced daily. Very clean. Individual heating control in the room, so you can choose to turn on or off as desired.Iron and ironing board in room. Fridge and tea / coffee making facilities.

The location of the hotel is great, you can walk to Tower Bridge and get around the rest of the city with ease as the hotel is close to bus stops of major routes. The small square below is pleasant (there is an antique market on Thursdays) and there is a supermarket across the street (useful). Also near the hotel are small restaurants, pubs, and several clubs. Very good room cleanliness.
