Note this hotel changed ownership from the Purple Hotel to the "Premier Inn - London City (Tower Hill)" in July 2008. I stayed here for two nights with my wife and teenage son. My wife and I had a double room, we booked a separate (single) room for my son. I booked through "Roomex.com" quite some time ago and got... more

We booked the hotel through Hotel Direct - we paid £270 for a double room and breakfast for 4 nights (saving some £200 off the Premier Inn website prices). The hotel is a five minute walk from Tower Hill tube station. We had a warm and friendly welcome on arrival and all our questions were answered. Our room was a... more

I couldn't fault the hotel to be honest. 5 mins walk from Tower Hill tube which is handy, rooms are clean and spacious and the staff are very friendly & helpful. Only downside is the breakfast area situated in the basement with no windows. The breakfast is very good with good quality produce used. The scrambled eggs are a bit... more

Was due to stay at the Premier Inn County Hall but was transferred here - much better option. Large clean and modern room, aircon, comfy bed, powerful shower (no bath), good quality decor. Staff were fine. Near enough to Tower Hill station for tube into the centre of town, but immediate area is nothing special (just office blocks). Agree with... more

We had a large, spacious room with all the facilities we needed- including air conditioning, which was such a bonus as during our stay the weather was very hot. I'm disappointed to see that it has now been taken over by Premier Inns, as I fear the price of a stay will contiue... more

Great hotel... Pros: friendly staff, excellent location, very clean, newly refurbished, comfortable clean beds, large airy rooms, huge showers, fairly quiet, good value for money. Cons: No real orange/apple juice for breakfast, a lift that doesn't stop on the 2nd floor, and no iron/trouser press in the room. more

We stayed for 7 nights from June 28. We found the hotel to be clean, spacious even with another bed,and quiet because we had a room at the back beside the church. We never tried breakfast but across the street there is a pub offering breakfast from 2.5 pounds. Also on the way to the Tower Hill tube station there... more

The title says it all; this hotel was excellent! Booked the hotel site unseen based on tripadvisor reviews for a girl’s holiday with a friend. We were staying in London on holiday for 10 nights which is a very long time and got lucky that this hotel was so nice. The rooms are large compared to most European hotels. The... more

I had a pleasant stay here. a little out of central london for my liking, but transport links are very good. the hotel staff were a little 'cold' and not very engaging. but i couldnt fault the hotel accomodation at all. we had a lovely big room, all the basic facilities and we overlooked the railway line but were not... more
