citizenM Hotel Tower of London
Expert reviews
“Downstairs it looks like a rich hipster’s living room, with well-stocked bookshelves, kooky art, Beefeater knick-knacks and lots of work space. Rooms are compact but well-designed.”

Great
Everything was easy, iPad there to check in, quick and smart, room was clean and shower was good, location was great, beside the tube station on Tower Hill circle line, hotel sky bar was good! Staff very welcoming and checking out through the iPad made it quick and easy. Thanks again, would recommend.

Great location , decent hotel - Ideal for folks who like Tech / apps / gadgets
Easy Check in , safe luggage storage on check in & check out days , staff attitudes. Location for Underground services is perfect.
Air con poor with little effect on room , TV picture breaking up ever 2 mins (all channels) . Massive bed is great , but as it's fixed against wall at one side, means it's not ideal with more than one person to access / leave

Very nice place! Easy to reserve, no need to pay until arrival 👍👍👍
Location is perfect!.
But breakfast wasn’t in our style so we used nearby restaurant

Location is great and the rooms very cozy but New York style small.
We used to live in London and loved playing tourist for a chance. The location of the hotel is amazing! Right outside the tube station and walking distance from Borough Market and other amazing sites.
We would have loved a more personal check in experience, its more of a self check in service. Not sure I like this but seems to be the way things go. However for the price, I still expect a little bit more.

Amazing location, modern room.
The location is great and the room is quite modern.
The room is small (as expected) and the elevators would take a while sometimes.

A modern and innovative approach!
The situation is amazing and the view are breathtaking. The atmosphere is buzzy and heady but at the same time comfortable and relaxed.

Great location
Quirky well kept hotel. In a fantastic location with helpful staff. Great city view looking onto Tower of London, the Shard and Tower Bridge. Interactive aspects of the room such as the lighting and blinds are a nice touch.
Not an issue for us but if you aren't familiar with the citizenM room layouts they are snug and bathrooms are very much in the room.

So central! Would highly recommend. Cocktails 10/10!
The staff were really polite and friendly The hotel was really clean The rooftop bar was lovely and the cocktails were so good
The lifts took a really long time to come to your floor and we weren’t shown where the stairs were located.

Comfortable and convenient good nights sleep
Clean and convenient location. Great facilities including fridge in room. Had a funky futuristic feel and the lights and controls all worked. Loved separate blind and blackout blind. Shower was great. Rooms were quiet. Staff were friendly and very helpful. Liked convenient check in and checkout times and fact there is left luggage facility. Also 24h refreshments availability.
No tea or coffee facilities in privacy of own room for when you first awake. The rooftop bar was not open lunchtime

Location, location, location + splendid breakfast
Location is the most outstanding aspect of CitizenM Tower Bridge. It literally sits atop the Tower Hill tube station. CitizenM's breakfast buffet and coffee bar are outstanding. And the staff who service it are marvelous.
Somewhat disappointed there was no fitness center, especially for a modern-build hotel.

Very good
Perfect Location for the first timer in London,Easy access anywhere..Tourists bus are just around the corner,some mini markets as well,close to some attractions in London,Very nice Breakfast,cool place ,perfect view from my room,as well as the rooftop,.I had a great time
I just miss food that i wanted to order for dinner,out of stocks for 3 nights..One night you miss is fine but 3 nights is not good..

The usual high end stay from Citizen M
I have stayed here before and it's always great. Breakfast price actually had dropped a little which makes sense and it's a great breakfast. Room is good and the rooftop bar is a real gem.
Never seem to get the room with the view of Tower of London but i'll keep trying! The rooms are not for everyone, can lack privacy with the frosted glass bathrooms. Fine for a couple.

Hip, Warm, Comfy in a very desirable location.
Super clean. Has everything needed for a leisure trip. Big lobby with fantastic breakfast and perfect bar with nice menu. Plenty of sitting space. Location is excellent. Next to the tube and Tower!
The rooms are a bit small. But we stayed there for 3 nights and would absolutely go back.

Great hotel staff would definitely stay again
All the staff were wonderful, over and above: so helpful, friendly and kind. I would particularly like to mention the two men who greeted us and sorted our room and stay, Ash and Ni Laryea, they went over and above and were so lovely, kind and efficient to myself and my daughter. The hotel is really quirky and interesting. great location. Really great value for London.
it was all great

Fabulous
Check in is very quick on the tablet. Since there are a lot of tablets there is no waiting time and you can Scan your roomcard by yourself. The Bed was big and you can control everything over an ipad. Feels very modern and its more fun than just a "normal" room.
25 July 2025
Will definitely be back!
View was amazing and location too!
It’s a shame the roof terrace is so “basic”.
24 July 2025
Exceptional
My room had a view of the Tower of London; it was amazing to look out of the window at this site both day and night. The location was great; a minutes walk to Tower Hill tube station and lots of pubs in the area. The breakfast was a feast and a great way to start the day. The staff were friendly and helpful. The room, on each floor, for ironing was much needed for clothes wrinkled from being in a suitcase . The bar on the 7th floor was a great place to start or end a night on the town.
It was a very busy hotel, but there were only two operational elevators. There was a "priority" elevator that did not seem to be available to people and an elevator that was not working.
24 July 2025
Overall, a reasonably comfortable stay but overpriced.
The hotel was in an excellent location next to the Tower Hill underground station and a short walk to the Tower of London and Tower Bridge. The bed was very comfortable. The 7th floor bar at the hotel had a magnificent view and the staff were courteous and friendly. Breakfast was good with a smallish but good quality selection of food.
The room was very cramped with minimal space for our luggage but we did expect this from reviews of previous guests. The seal on the door to our bathroom was coming undone. The room was hot despite the air conditioning being set at 20 deg C. Shower curtain to enclose a shower are a bit dated. I think some things could do with an upgrade.
23 July 2025
Good, but seems like they’re still working out the quirks?
Location was fantastic. The space was great, with everything I needed, including a tiny fridge, and the bed was spacious.
Sheets were not totally clean, tech didn’t always function as advertised. Some staff members were a little snotty. Value-wise, could’ve done better, I think, in retrospect.
22 July 2025
staff friendly and really took care of our every need would definitely stay again
i really enjoyed my stay the members of staff could not do enough for you every i asked was never a problem and they were so polite and friendly the members of staff made my stay so enjoyable and ate a credit to your company
kettle in room would have been nice but wasn’t a problem
22 July 2025
Came for a couple nights and will be coming back to a citizenM again
Amazing location and surrounded by whatever you would want, right near the circle line so you can go anywhere in London
I don’t really have any dislikes other than prices of food in the hotel which drove us to eat out every time but I guess that’s a case by case thing
22 July 2025
Beautiful Hotel, Great location and amazing staff
The great location and modern facilities in the hotel
The menu was limited, adding a lil more variety would really help
21 July 2025
Fab clean room with the best view 🥰
The view from the room was awesome!!! It was compact but clean and everything we needed!
A kettle would have been nice!

Modern, buzzy hotel perfectly situated in London.
It is next door to Tower Bridge station and therefore the Tower of London. It is very modern and busy. Checking in was easy. My room, or pod, was well designed and comfortable for one person. I wouldn’t want to share it. The staff were very helpful and charming. The roof top bar had excellent views and again the staff were friendly and the service quick. The hotel app was useful.
My door was very hard to open and I had to get help as I thought my card wasn’t working. It needed oiling. Awful selection of tv stations.

Great second visit.
This is our second stay at this hotel, two years after our first and it was just as good as last time. A nice, clean room with a lovely view of the Tower of London and everything you'd expect from Citizen M.
There wasn't anything we didn't like.

Loved our stay. The iPad control of the room lighting, tv and blinds was awesome
Location was fantastic, offering great views of the Tower of London. Very easy to get around with the tube being directly next to the station. Automatic check-in and check-out was very easy!
Lifts were a bit slow but nothing too serious to complain about.
