Dear Judy B., Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback following your recent family stay with us. We are pleased to see that you enjoyed our convenient location, comfortable accommodation, swimming pool and sauna, and that you rated your arrival and check-in experience 100/100. We also greatly appreciate your positive feedback regarding our accommodation, cleanliness, team and check-out experience. At the same time, I would like to sincerely apologise for the aspects of your stay that caused disappointment. Regarding the swimming pool reservations, I completely understand your frustration. We are currently trialling a new approach whereby pool bookings are no longer required, with the aim of making access to the pool more convenient and providing a better and more flexible experience for our guests. We very much hope that this new arrangement will address the concerns you experienced during your stay. I would also like to apologise for the incident involving the floor manager entering your room without knocking. I fully understand why this would have been concerning, particularly as you were inside the room at the time. This is certainly not the experience we wish to provide our guests, and we will ensure your feedback is shared with the relevant management team so that the appropriate procedures and communication are reinforced. Thank you also for highlighting the issue with mould in the shower. We are sorry that this was not identified and addressed before your arrival, and we will raise this with our Housekeeping and Maintenance teams for immediate attention. We have also noted your feedback regarding the Wi-Fi connection and value for money, and these comments will be taken into consideration as we continue to improve our services. We truly appreciate your positive comments as well as your constructive feedback. Your observations are very valuable to us and help us identify areas where we can improve the guest experience.

The hotel is nice and well situated. Be prepared to walk a lot to your destinations. It's right on the cusp of "I should probably just walk this." Only complaint was that the carpet in the room had a lot of stains on it.

The pool reservations were very annoying. Also, it was so odd how the floor manager let herself into our room to check on housekeeping work. We were in the room and she asked us if we were ok instead of explaining why she opened our door and didn't knock. I called the front desk to check your protocol.

Raymond D. Couples - Confirmed reviews ALL

We stayed in quite a few Accor hotels in London and the Novotel Blackfriars clearly stands out. From arrival to departure the very welcoming and highly efficient team really made the difference for us. The Executive premium room with private balcony was amazing with the view on The Shard. Thanks to all the team for making our stay seamless.

Dear Raymond D., Thank you so much for such a wonderful and heartfelt review. We are absolutely delighted to hear that Novotel London Blackfriars stood out among the many Accor hotels you have stayed at in London. It is fantastic to know that our team made such a positive difference throughout your stay, from arrival to departure, and that you enjoyed your Executive Premium room and private balcony with its view of The Shard. Your kind words about our reception, room service, and bar teams mean a great deal to us. We will be sure to share your feedback with the entire team, as recognition like this is incredibly motivating. Thank you once again for choosing to stay with us and for recognising the hard work of our team. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back to Novotel London Blackfriars very soon!

Denise J. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

Hotel is in a good location, near to Southwark tube station. Some staff really pleasant (reception and bar / restaurant staff), some others quite rude. Rooms quite nice. We had issues with ceiling leaking in due to toilet from rooms above us so had to be moved.

Dear Denise J., Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback following your family stay with us. We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed our convenient location, found the room comfortable, and had positive experiences with members of our reception and bar and restaurant teams. We will be happy to share your kind comments with them. We are also glad that you found the booking process through the ALL Accor App easy and that you were satisfied with your arrival and check-out experiences. We are, however, very sorry for the inconvenience caused by the water leak from the room above. We understand how disruptive it must have been to experience this during your stay and subsequently have to move rooms. Please accept our sincere apologies. We are also following up on the matter to help prevent similar incidents in the future. We are disappointed to hear that some interactions with our team did not meet the level of service we aim to provide. Our guests should always feel welcomed and treated with courtesy, and we will address your comments with the relevant team members. Thank you also for pointing out the dust on the glass shelves. While we are pleased that you found the room generally clean, we will reinforce the importance of attention to detail with our housekeeping team. We truly appreciate your constructive feedback and hope that, should you choose to stay with us again, we will have the opportunity to provide you with a smoother and more enjoyable experience.

Sudhakar G. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

We had a mixed experience during our stay. The room itself was clean, comfortable and quite good, so we were happy with that. Unfortunately, the bathroom was the main issue. There was a weird and unpleasant smell and it didn’t feel like the bathroom had been cleaned properly. The bathroom floor especially could have been cleaned much better. We also found the bathroom design quite strange. The window was slightly transparent, which made us feel uncomfortable from a privacy point of view. This is something the hotel should definitely look into. There were no bathmats in the bathroom either. We noticed a sign saying that they could be collected from reception, but honestly, bathmats should be provided in the room as a basic amenity. One positive point was the reception service. Azhar at reception was very polite, and helpful, and we really appreciated his attitude. I had also emailed the hotel before our stay requesting that the room, bedding and bathroom be cleaned properly, as we had noticed some concerns about cleanliness in previous reviews, so we were a little disappointed that the bathroom still had these issues. Overall, the room was good, but the bathroom issues, especially the smell, cleanliness, design and privacy, really brought down our experience. Hopefully, the hotel takes these points seriously and improves them.

Dear Sudhakar G., Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback with us. We are pleased to hear that you found your room clean, comfortable and enjoyable, and that you were happy with the service provided by Azhar at reception. We will certainly share your kind words with him. We are sincerely sorry, however, that the bathroom did not meet your expectations, particularly regarding the unpleasant smell and the cleanliness of the floor. We fully understand your disappointment, especially as you had contacted us before your stay specifically regarding cleanliness. This is certainly not the experience we wanted you to have, and we will follow up with our housekeeping and maintenance teams to ensure these points are properly addressed. Regarding the bathroom design and privacy, we understand your concern. We would like to reassure you that we do have an option to cover the glass wall between the bathroom and bedroom upon request, and our team would be happy to arrange this for guests who prefer additional privacy. With regard to the bathmats, we do provide a small floor towel/mat in the bathroom. The rubber bathmats are available upon request specifically for use inside the shower. We are sorry if this was not clearly communicated during your stay and understand your expectation regarding having the appropriate mat available. We truly appreciate your constructive comments, as they help us identify where we need to improve. Please accept our sincere apologies for the shortcomings you experienced. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back and provide you with the comfortable and pleasant stay you expected. Sincerely, Katie Walsh Guest Service Manager

I appreciate the early 11:00 AM check in, thank you. I would suggest much more attention is presented to cleaning the bathrooms, since the shower in our room (Nr. 519) had mold in the wall to floor area and also the opposite wall had stains from shower gell foam, when previous guests used it.
