This hotel is wonderful! The location is superb! It is close to the Tower of London and Tower Bridge with a nearby Underground stop. There is a great Indian restaurant a couple doors away called Cafe Spice Namaste, probably the best Indian in London. The hotel is also close to St. Catherine's Docks where there are several nice restaurants and... more

Hi. I booked a family ( 2 adults, 2 small kids) room directly from hotel website as i preferred an option to cancel the reservation if we would have needed to do so. Hotel was recently renovated, room was clean and spacious. Within 5 minutes walking distance from Tower Hill Tube, 2 minutes walk to bus stop (100 takes you... more

Clean, well located, quiet, good food (although service a tad slow) would still highly recommend - great that you can usually always rely on a Premier Inn for consistantly high standards but at a great price. more

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

Our stay at the Purplehotel was fantastic. 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
