Top South Bank Hotel Reviews

Burn Hall Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were friendly and very helpful. Breakfast on both mornings was amazing, I liked how you could still order add ons such as poached eggs or porridge, we'd probably go just for the breakfast. Our room was spotless, and the hotel itself was also. I think the only thing for us was, the rooms could have a tiny bit more security as it's still a hotel which had normal lock and keys on each door"

White Hart Hotel & Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Firstly, a real bonus to have parking on site! We arrived early so parked up and went into the attached restaurant, The Fat Badger to make a reservation for an evening meal. The menu looked very inviting and the staff were so friendly in the bar area. Just a querky place with great decor. The toilets were very clean, no complaints at all. Our room was Circus themed, with a four poster bed, which was a lovely surprise. The room was clean and beautifully arranged. The bed was comfy and the bathroom clean and the shower was spot on. The Hotel is really central to everywhere. The evening meal was lovely with the staff being very friendly. We have no complaints at all and would definitely stay here again."
