Hotel of the week

This five-star boutique hotel down a cobbled street in the heart of The City is just moments from the banks of the Thames and Southwark Bridge.

The Tower of London, attractions of the South Bank and two historic markets, Leadenhall and Borough, are all nearby.

My stylish superior room had luxurious touches such as the velvet headboard, statement armchair and plush fabrics, and came with plenty of pampering products in the bathroom.

With complimentary soft drinks, hot drinks and snacks, a library of films to choose from and an extremely comfortable king size bed, my room provided the perfect escape from busy London life.

There’s a rooftop restaurant, Asian tapas eatery and cocktail bar to choose from, all gorgeously decorated and offering fabulous London views.

Amazing dishes available to choose from include Bao buns,
