Apex City Of London Hotel

Apex City Of London Hotel Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to the Apex City Of London Hotel on Seething Lane, you immediately get that “I’m in the real London” feeling — not the touristy bits, but where actual business happens. This four-star property sits right in the financial district, and honestly, the location couldn’t be better if you want to feel like you’re part of the city’s pulse. The building itself has this sleek, modern look that fits perfectly among the glass towers and historic churches that define this part of London.

The Heart of the City

You know what’s brilliant about staying here? You’re literally surrounded by some of London’s most iconic spots, but without the crowds of tourists stumbling around with maps. The Tower of London is practically next door — I mean, you can walk there in about three minutes. Tower Bridge? Same thing. But here’s the insider bit: you’re also steps away from some fantastic pubs that city workers actually frequent, like the ones tucked away on the narrow medieval streets that somehow survived the Blitz and modern development.

The Room Experience

I’ve got to say, they weren’t kidding about the beds here — they really are exceptionally comfortable, which matters more than you’d think after a long day of walking around London’s cobblestones. The room I stayed in had this clean, contemporary design with floor-to-ceiling windows that actually open (a rarity in modern hotels). The views vary depending on which side you’re on, but even if you don’t get the Tower Bridge vista, you’ll still see interesting bits of the city’s architectural mix — medieval churches squeezed between gleaming office towers.

Morning Fuel

Breakfast here is actually quite impressive, especially if you have dietary restrictions. They do a proper full English, obviously, but what surprised me was how well they handle the vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options — not just as afterthoughts, but as proper meals. The restaurant space feels bright and energetic in the morning, with big windows letting in natural light. It’s the kind of breakfast that sets you up properly for a day of exploring, whether you’re heading to Borough Market or tackling the museums.

Why Guests Love It

The location score of 9.5 really tells the story here — couples especially seem to love how central everything feels without being in the middle of the Oxford Street chaos. You can walk to the Thames in two minutes, catch the Tube at Tower Hill or Monument stations easily, and there’s something quite romantic about wandering these historic streets in the evening when the office crowds have gone home. The staff genuinely seem to know the area well too, so they can point you toward the good stuff that’s not in every guidebook.
