Novotel London Bridge

Was welcomed by friendly staff, did not take long to get checked in, room was ready very clean and tidy. Did not eat in the hotel but did have a drink and the service was good there too. Breakfast was included with the room rate and found to be very nice.

I've been looking forward to leaving this review as I wanted to say how lovely our stay at The Novotel London Bridge was. From check in (by such a sweet lady who made sure I had been given the room I requested) to the management (my safe stopped opening and they came immediately with a smile), the breakfast staff (always a very cheery good morning even when very busy, the very smiley bar staff and the fantastic housekeeping staff who kept the room clean and refreshed our water and supplies every day. I must admit that the hotel was a lot nicer than I was expecting, I've stayed in lots of London Hotels and they become tired quickly as there is such a huge turnover and the staff become robotic and rude but not here. The public spaces were clean and stylish and very comfortable. There was one thing that struck me that should definitely be addressed at the next refit though, please put a wall around the bathroom! I was sharing with my teenage daughter and my friend was also sharing with her daughter and a shower that you can see into is not great for the body conscious. Thank goodness I wasn't sharing with my friend. We both decided that it must have been designed by a man because no woman would think this layout was a good idea. Also, why is the sink in the bedroom and not within the toilet area? Late night trips to the loo meant either waking the person close to the sink or not washing hands, which I find a bit gross, (but again a reason we thought it might be a male design thing- sorry if that's going to upset some men). Perhaps the layout is meant more for the solo business traveller and if so it works very well, the shower was huge and very refreshing and the toiletries provided were gorgeous, maybe it was the swim in the serpentine or the London Water but I'm putting my fabulous hair whilst away down to the conditioner and shampoo! We also tried out the gym which, although small, was perfect for a few days. So all in all a brilliant stay in London, the hotel was so convenient for the tube and walks along the embankment, thanks Novotel London Bridge, we would definitely consider returning.

I recently stayed with my wife and two kids for eight nights and had a wonderful experience. Novotel provided free desserts and a card to celebrate our anniversary. Accommodations were new, well appointed and tastefully decorated. All staff members that we encountered were pleasant and hardworking. Breakfast was delicious and consistent. Extremely close walk to Borough Market and London Bridge Tube station. Would definitely stay again!

We loved our stay at this hotel, the staff was very nice, good food and nice welcome drinks , our girls liked the stay very much, comparing with our last Novotel hotels in France we enjoyed more - more attentive personnel and bigger room, clean

We love to stay in this hotel. The friendly staff and great breakfast makes the best start of the day. Cool bar and an ok restaurant for a late dinner is also good. We like to stay “outside “ of the city centre and the area is a good place to explore the real London. This is our second stay at this hotel, we’ll be back.
