H10 in London Waterloo - Exquisite
We stayed at the H10 in London Waterloo and what can I say; the hotel was exquisite. We were offered complimentary Cava upon arrival, whilst we were checked in by Mahmoud, a lovely gentleman. We were quite early and had only hoped to drop our bags off, but he kindly advised our room was ready. The room was quite basic compared to what you COULD have in London, but basic in terms of twin beds, desk, and a view that wasn't unpleasant. The windows were double or triple glazed so street noise did not permeate a lot, despite there being an ambulance station down the road! The was an amply stocked fridge mini bar, with prices just above what you'd pay in a local shop. The storage with hangers was good enough for our two night stay, although if you were staying for longer and had more luggage you may have to ask for more. The bathroom was a beautiful walk in shower with enough water pressure and flow to rival a waterfall, that being said, only having a static panel next to the shower, and no panel that could be closed, made for a very wet bath mat: Think a sliding door would be a good addition here. Also the actual door to the bathroom was glass on a runner, which made a hell of a noise in the middle of the night rumbling along it's track to close; it didn't shut completely, leaving a centimetre gap, but if you are sharing a room with someone, it is assumed that you are more than just passing acquaintances! 🤭 Breakfast was amazing; a buffet of full English or Continental, or a combination of both, as I saw some American guests enjoying; had not thought of having lettuce with bacon and egg! Due to our sightseeing, pub and cocktail bar hopping and a theatre trip, we ate out most of the time except on the last night, when we ate at the Sky Bar. What can I say about the Sky Bar? Wow! Apart from the amazing views across London, where you can see everything from the London Eye and BT Tower right across to the Walkie Talkie, the Shard, Tower 42 (NatWest tower) the Gherkin and a number of others that I cannot remember the names. Watching the sunset is awesome and you can take some lovely photographs: When it gets cooler you are brought blankets which are lovely and soft, and the same as on your beds, should you visit in the cooler months. The cocktails and food are a little pricey, but you only live once; the Spanish omelette is a lovely one to try, along with the Cava Royal. Finally, the staff in the Sky Bar; Hailey, Alejandro and MD, to name a few are most welcoming and very attentive, noticing when you are getting chilly, to seeing your glass or plate empty, or even to take a photograph of you, because we all know how awful a selfie can turn out. My friend paid for the trip which was around £150 per night, but I can honestly say it was the best value hotel I have stayed in for a while, especially in London! I would definitely recommend giving H10 London Waterloo a try! 👍❤️
