Top Woolwich Riverside Hotel Reviews

The Tower Hotel, by Thistle

8/10 Good

"Location is excellent, reception and bars lovely but bedrooms now a bit dated, no mini bar or coffee making in room"

Bluedaws Private Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The staff at this place went above and beyond to be friendly and helpful. I wanted to give my kids an old fashioned bed & breakfast experience, and this place didn’t disappoint. Paddington Station very close, lots of food choices nearby. We even discovered St. Mary’s Hospital there, where penicillin was discovered. (There was a small museum there about it too). Only downside was there was only one electrical outlet we could find in the room, and no mirror near it, so drying my hair was a bit tricky, but they were kind enough to let me borrow a hairdryer for our whole stay. The communal bathrooms definitely get busy in the mornings, but they have quite a few. Thank you :)"
