A place of calm in the bustle of the East End. Nothing fancy but sensibly priced and close to DLR. Breakfast good, bed comfortable and shower great.

We had a great 4 night stay at The Royal Foundation of St. Katharine. The public facing spaces are lovely, comfortable and nice places to spend time. The sitting areas are welcoming, the courtyard is peaceful, and the breakfast was a great way to start the day. The Yurt Cafe was a great addition to our stay. Perfect place to grab a bite to eat after a busy day, sit outside, and end enjoy the outdoors. We encountered two of the priests during our stay and they were very friendly and welcoming. We would certainly recommend this property to others looking for a spot out of the normal busy scene with a relaxing atmosphere.

Booked a 1 night stay at this hotel but my appointment in London was poatponed to the following day. The hotel didnt have any available rooms for the following day and despite being contacted directly by an Expedia representative would not even consider a refund for the room. I wont be booking this place next time I am in London.

A lot of value for money
Very Nice hotel, good location, Nice staff. The neighbourhood felt safe. Absolutely worth the money. The breakfast was very good. It has a late check in - but since we could store our Luggage at the hotel in a safe room it was okay. The Rooms were always Nice and clean. Properly the cleanest hotel in london i have tried.
