Great new addition to this part of town
from Art4All
A worthy addition to the Hilton stable. Very central with underground and main-line rail stations literally yards away, so if you know London, there's little need for taxis to/from the hotel itself. For the first-time visitor to London there's a good choice of tourist attractions close by and you're right on the River Thames walkway. A fresh, new, almost 'boutique style' hotel - not necessarily what one immediately thinks of with Hilton - but more than adequate. Good value packages available from the hotel's own website. Upgraded rooms get access to a small but welcoming Exec lounge. The only negative comment from my visit would be some rather noisy and difficult to adjust air-conditioning but it would appear that this was being addressed. The reception indicated that this was a problem that others had commented on. Once this is fixed then it gets a 5* from me.
Great location, excellent valuet
from wineglobelovers
We migrated from our hotel room on the West side to the East side to take in the Tower of London and St. Paul's cathedral. This hotel is new and is a very good value for London. Our room had a modern feel to it and we had an upgrade because of status with Hilton. Breakfast was included in the cost of the room because of gold status - excellent. Take the river walk for an easy stroll to the Tower of London. There's an excellent pizzeria around the corner from Fuller's.
Modern hotel, great price, good location
from MTM
I stayed at Hilton Tower Bridge during the Christmas period. This is a very modern Hilton property and is located very close to London Bridge railway station and tube (Northern and Jubilee lines). Check in was fast and friendly. As a Diamond card holder, an executive room was offered without prompting. During the period between Christmas and New Year, the executive lounge was closed but all usual perks were available from the main bar without charge. As mentioned in previous reviews, the rooms are modern and very comfortable, staff are polite and very helpful, and the hotel is located close to tourist attractions, the south bank, and decent pubs. There is a very useful M&S Simply Food store a few paces from reception. Prices for staying at Hilton Tower Bridge do seem to range from reasonable to very expensive. I booked via the hotels own website a few days before my stay and paid £113. If this is a glimpse of what we can expect of future new Hilton Hotels, then we all have something to look forward to.
gorgeous
from icklep
Absolutely gorgeous hotel, got a great deal for this hotel at €155 for one night. We had a standard room which had a view of London Bridge. The room was gorgeous, it was big, modern and very clean. There was an ironing board and iron and gorgeous La Source toiletries. Only thing was the shower wasn't great, as in it wasn't very powerful. The bed was AMAZING so good we didn't want to get out of bed the next day. The bed was massive and had a soft and gorgeous duvet and pillows. The mini bar was great, great selection. Their was an ice machine on every floor which was so handy. I had a cocktail in the bar which was lovely. The concierge were brilliant and the staff were lovely. Our check-in and check-out were hassle free and quick. There are loads of shops and restaurants nearby. There was absolutely no noise at night, we slept like babies. Would definately stay in this hotel again it was gorgeous.
Loved the view

Hilton property but not Hilton conform
from PAS70
Chose this hotel for my weekly London stays once it opened a couple of months ago due to its location and vicinity to my office. It's nice and modern but it is also one of those properties where you should expect absolutely nothing as a Hilton Honours Diamond members. I find it rather degrading having to prompt the staff for the benefits one would be entitled to. Not sure whether this is down to lack of staff training, lack of experience owing to the fact that it is a newly opened hotel, or simply a s-o-d it attitude. Also, I don't drink much, but other guests complain that the executive lounge bar closes at 9pm. Hardly any time left then to have a night cap if you arrive late from the office. I'll keep quiet and will take my business bake to the Marriott where membership benefits are far more consistent.
New hotel, just fabulous
from rubberband
Stayed for the weekend in this extremely comfortable hotel. It is very close to Tower Bridge and the London Dungeons. It has only been open about 6 months but the service and accommodation were excellent. The rooms are comtemporary and beds are very comfortable. Beautiful buffet breakfast every morning. The evening dinner wasn't the best, but ok. Every member of staff was extremely helpful and polite. A word of warning about the mini bar. Don't touch anything or move anything unless you are thirsty or hungry because as soon as you do, the computer on reception automatically knows what you have touched and it goes straight on to your bill!! My daughter and I had a good old nosy around and only read the fridge door the very next day. Luckily the receptionist saw the funny side when I explained, and she took it straight off the bill. Would definitely go and stay here again as it was such a lovely place.
A great hotel
from diveteam
We stayed here for a long weekend at the end of October. Being a Hilton Honors VIP Gold Card member we were automatically upgraded to the executive floor, which is always welcome. Being on this floor you have complementary drinks (soft & alchoholic) and snacks in the evening as well as breakfast in the morning. Being a brand new hotel, it only opened a couple of months earlier, the room was imaculate with a very contempory feel and even some modern art on the wall. The colour theming was black and red and the bathroom had a separate bath and shower and modern basin. The lighting in the main room was more than adequate and there was a lot of space in the wardobe. The room had a decent size flat screen tv and we also got robes and slipers. This hotel is in a great location, being just a short walk from both london bridge station and tower bridge. All the staff were very friendly from check-in to check-out. I will definetley be stopping here again
Nice Hotel, Very Expensive
from R1
I stayed for 1 night on a business trip and I agree with the previous writer, it's in an excellent central location close to the tube. Rooms are spotless and very modern. However, I do think the price of £220 approx is a bit excessive for 1 night, bed and breakfast. (can't remember exactly the breakdown for breakfast and room) My company chose and picked up the bill for the hotel, because there is no way I would have paid that price for one night. I've stayed in Hiltons before and they are good hotels, but I do think you can get just as nice other hotels in central London for less money.
What a surprise!!!
from GeorgeCroft
I have to said that I will return to this Hilton near Tower Bridge. The location is great as you are nearby to the London Dungeon, Borough Market and the HMS Belfast. Cool atmosphere, not arty but just Modern and very comfortable. In the bedroom we had a large comfortable armchair. The bar is stylish and staff are professioonal in the art of Cocktail. I had a Rhubarb Daiquiri, a real nectar... The Breakfast was superb as always in Hilton and we walk to the Tate Modern on the Sunday, just 15 minutes walk. I recommand you the walk on the river side as it is very nice. This hotel is just the right one for a London weekend break.
A well managed hotel, with polite friendly staff. Rooms are comfortable and clean. Excellent breakfast. Drinks and food in hotel are a little pricey. However, many places to eat nearby. Hotel is well positioned for strolling along river free of traffic.(We are a couple mid 50's).
