Dorsett City London

We arrived hours before check in and were planning to just drop off our bags, but were happy to be able to check in early and get settled before heading off for the day. Our room was comfortable, and for being on the 8th floor we had a nice view of some of the famous skyscrapers in the area. Room service was excellent after a long night out and breakfast at the restaurant was delicious and reasonably priced.

The tube stop directly next door was closed for weekend maintenance, so we found ourselves having to walk to and from either Liverpool St or East Aldgate. This was not the hotel’s fault but it was a minor inconvenience considering we picked the hotel based on the fact it was next to a station. I imagine if you’re staying here during the week that’s not an issue but weekend trip guests might want to reconsider, especially if you’re like us and had heavy bags. The rooftop bar was a fabulous view but £27 for two drinks was a double take. But that’s London, so.

The locations is great if you need to be in the insurance district. Easy to get around. The roof top bar staff were great and took very good care of us.

The staff at the restaurant were less than pleasant.
