The hotel's location is pretty good, with plenty of bus stops within a five-minute walk to any attraction. Waterloo underground station is also about a three to five-minute walk away, making transportation very convenient. Breakfast is standard Western fare – decent, with sausages, fruit, and bread. Best to eat your fill to save on lunch. The Hampton by Hilton brand in the UK seems to be a very basic type; other than an electric kettle, they don't provide anything else, like bottled water, slippers, or dental kits. It feels like it only offers a place to sleep. If the price exceeds £150, you might want to seriously compare and consider other options.

The Hampton by Hilton London Waterloo is conveniently located near Waterloo Station, which also has a subway station. It's about a 15-minute walk to the London Eye, making it very accessible to major attractions. There's a bus stop right across the street that goes to the British Museum and Trafalgar Square. I found the breakfast to be just okay; British food generally isn't to my taste.

We had a pleasant stay at Hampton by Hilton London Waterloo. The location was very convenient, especially for getting around London. Waterloo Station is within walking distance, making it easy to take the Underground and trains to different parts of the city. There are also plenty of restaurants and shops nearby. Our room was clean, comfortable and well maintained. The bed was comfortable. We also appreciated the complimentary breakfast, which was convenient before heading out for a day of sightseeing.

The room was ridiculously tiny, and to top it off, there was no fridge – which is strange for London, even given the weather. The air conditioning was practically useless. The furniture was old and worn, with cracks all over the table and walls. The bathroom step was too high, and the shower water pressure was really weak. They even charged a hefty deposit just to check in. The most outrageous thing was that checkout is at 11 AM, but they started banging on the door at 10:30 sharp to rush us out, and even cut the power to force us to leave. The front desk staff were unfriendly throughout, and seemed particularly hostile towards Chinese guests.

Response from Property: Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. I’m very sorry that your stay did not meet your expectations, and I appreciate you bringing these concerns to our attention.I’m pleased that you have highlighted the issues, as several of the points you mention require our attention. I’m particularly sorry about the condition of the room and the concerns regarding the air conditioning, furniture, bathroom facilities and shower pressure. We will share this feedback with our relevant teams so these areas can be reviewed.Regarding the £30 deposit, this is a standard pre-authorisation for potential incidental charges and is clearly stated on the registration card that guests sign at check-in. The amount is not a charge for the stay and is released after departure, subject to the usual processing times of the card issuer.I am also very sorry to hear about your experience around departure. Our standard check-out time is 11:00am, and guests should not feel pressured to leave before this time. We will review the circumstances surrounding the knocking on your door and the concerns you have raised about the power.Finally, I am particularly concerned by your comments regarding the way you felt you were treated as Chinese guests. We take any suggestion of discrimination or unequal treatment extremely seriously, and this is certainly not the experience we want any of our guests to have. I will ensure your feedback is shared with the appropriate team for review.I sincerely apologise that your stay fell short in so many areas, and thank you again for bringing these matters to our attention.Kind Regards,Umisha VarsaniFront Office Manager

Stayed for 6 days straight. Big Ben and the London Eye were within walking distance, and the subway and train stations were just a few minutes away on foot. It was super convenient to get to the National Gallery and see musicals in the West End. The breakfast every morning was so filling, it practically saved us lunch! 😝😝

The hotel's location is superb. It's a 10-minute walk to Big Ben, 20 minutes to Buckingham Palace, 25 minutes to the National Gallery, and 22 minutes to Borough Market. The train station is just 5 minutes away, and there are several bus routes nearby.

The room was clean and had a large sofa, which could accommodate three people. The breakfast was plentiful. There's a small supermarket and restaurants nearby. The bus stop is right downstairs, making it very convenient for getting around. Highly recommended!

We checked in around 4.30pm, after arriving by train at Warerloo station. The reception staff were all ready to greet my party of 3. We had called before we booked to ask for a city view room looking at the london eye, we were told this room was available and so we booked. We were given our key card and told the room was on the 3rd floor, which instantly caught my attention, and to no suprise the view from our window was looking at the hospital across the road, which although has some great vintage ambulances outside, it wasnt the view we asked or paid for. We didn't report anything or ask for a room change as we needed to leave for our booked dinner to get to the theatre on time. We then strolled in around 1am and thought there was no point in complaining at that hour. The room was great, lots of space, super comfortable beds and pillows - it's actually the best night sleep I've had in a hotel in a really long time - it even beats the marvel hotel in disney Paris. The weather in London was very hot and humid and yet the hotel and the room was just perfect, we didn't have to change the temperature at all. The linen and towels were clean and really soft - the bed was like air! The hallways and walkways were really calm subtle. The breakfast was really good and fresh, there wasn't a large amount of food available but at least something for everyone. I had waffles and syrup with fruit flavoured water which was all fabulous and a great start for us before heading back on the 7am train. We would definitely stay again if we were in the area.

The air conditioning was broken the whole time. I called the front desk multiple times, and they sent up two fans, but it didn't help with ventilation. Once the sofa bed was pulled out, there was hardly any space for luggage. The advantage is its proximity to the River Thames.
