The Spotlight on The Tower

Riverside Views and City Vibes at The Tower Hotel

Modern comfort meets iconic London scenery at The Tower Hotel, perfectly perched between the River Thames and St. Katharine’s Dock. With Tower Bridge as your next-door neighbor and panoramic views of The Shard, this 4-star hotel blends convenience, style, and skyline drama. It’s an ideal base for travelers looking to explore the city by day and dive into its music scene by night.

Why Concert-goers love it

Location is everything—and The Tower delivers. Just an 8-minute walk to Tower Hill Tube Station, you’ll have smooth, late-night access to major venues across London. For a scenic ride home, hop on the Thames Clippers at St. Katharine’s Pier, just 2 minutes away. Soundproofed rooms keep post-show noise at bay, and with a 3:00 PM check-in and 11:00 AM checkout, you’ve got flexibility for pre- and post-concert downtime.

Who this Hotel is great for

Groups of friends heading to a gig together will love the central location and nearby pubs.
Solo travelers chasing a bucket-list show will find it safe and well-connected.
Couples can soak in romantic riverside walks after a night of live music.
Fans wanting quiet after the encore will appreciate the peaceful dockside setting.
Budget-conscious music lovers get great value for a four-star stay in a prime spot.

Food and Drink Options

The on-site restaurant serves up modern fusion cuisine ideal for pre-show dinners or late bites. The bar not only offers an extensive drink menu but also unbeatable views of Tower Bridge—perfect for sharing concert photos and winding down. While 24/7 room service isn’t available, the location makes it easy to find late-night eats nearby, and breakfast is available for those slow, music-filled mornings.

Nightlife Options

While there’s no live music on-site, you’re steps from London’s vibrant nightlife. Walk to riverside pubs, cozy wine bars, or hop on the Tube to buzzing neighborhoods like Shoreditch or Soho. Prefer staying in? The hotel bar offers a more chilled-out vibe with local craft drinks and a front-row seat to the city lights.

What People Say

Guests rave about the incredible views and easy transport access. Reviewers love the friendly staff, clean rooms, and the unique feeling of being tucked between two iconic landmarks. It’s frequently described as a “hidden gem” with a location that’s hard to beat.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that the décor could use a modern refresh, and a few rooms are more compact than expected. However, the views and location more than make up for it.

The Bottom Line

If you want a stylish, well-connected London base with riverside charm and unbeatable post-concert access, The Tower Hotel hits the right note.

Would recommend position of hotel...

Liked: Position. Wonderful view of the bridge and close to Tower of London and River cruises. Restaurant attached to the hotel was lively and food good. Staff in restaurant very attentive.
Disliked: Bar fridge wasn’t operational. Didn’t want the booze but somewhere to keep drinks cool in summer would have been nice. Lifts in the morning were a challenge. Some staff friendlier than others. Cost of breakfast was too high, so opted out of that. Also needs one of those info folders etc in the room to tell you about opening hours of Tower, how to get extra channels on TV etc.

Views striking, hotel clean and...

Liked: The friendly staff and location were the highlights.
Disliked: Listed in the hotel room amenities was air conditioning and a coffee machine, there was neither. Trying to sleep in a room with 26 degree heat being blown at you by the non working air conditioning system was very uncomfortable. When I reported it to the desk they said there was no air con in the hotel so why list it in the room amenities.
