MOTEL ONE LONDON-TOWER HILL

The Motel One, just north of the river, is newer and buzzy enough to satisfy the trendiest of travelers. It goes heavy on smart design. Your healthy and organic breakfast is served in chivalrous fashion in front of a historic backdrop and eaten on specially-made benches with Chesterfield-style upholstery. Cosy box-spring beds ensure a sovereign sleep, crowning your stay in this Design Hotel. Best of all, it means there’s an affordable-ish hotel within easy reach of the Tower of London and makes a great base from which to explore on foot. Only a short stroll away is Tower Bridge; stroll along the Thames from here to reach the heart of tourists’ London, with all the sights essential to your visit, including St. Paul’s Cathedral, the London Eye and Buckingham Palace.
