Ofir, Israel

Really modern vibe. Lively, comfortable, and clean. Great breakfast. Lattes to die for! Will def come back.

Linda, United States of America

We loved the personal touches, like being able to change the lighting. There was a great selection of films and music to listen to. Excellent location in zone 1 at an affordable price. The staff were very friendly, always available if needed. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here

Sasha, United Kingdom

Perfect location on the South Bank; very easy to get there from Heathrow and walking distance or short tube journey to the top London attractions. This is our third stay at a Citizen M and we’ll be back. It’s modern and quirky, has friendly and helpful staff, great food options for breakfast and other meal times and a comfortable king-size bed. All rooms are the same so you know what you are getting once you’ve stayed at CitizenM for the first time.

Deborah, Canada

Stayed here several times. Like all CitizenM's an extremely comfortable bed and room that provides all one needs for a short stay. Very helpful staff, especially thanks to Daria. Good breakfast in the morning. Top notch.

No tea/coffee facilities.Lights, technology , temperature operated by iPad , not everything worked.Blinds were slow and didn't work by the wall switch, many tv channels didn't work, had to fumble around in the dark for the iPad to put on lights to visit bathroom in the middle of the night, just a nuisance.Room felt claustrophobic as we couldn't open the blinds as everyone could have seen inside your room from the corridor outside/rooms opposite.No room service, lack of decent 24 hour menu in canteen.No headboard on bed, had to ask for extra pillow.Staff member dealing with query rather unpersonable.Bar staff couldn't speak very good English, misunderstood our order .
The room was clean.

“Liked the innovative approach and the friendly staff; better if they were knowledgable too!”
- • Leisure trip

For a hotel based on technology it is important to have it working and to have staff who are able to work it. Over a 3 hour period on Friday evening, we reported the failure of the TV to have the channels we wanted (ITV, BBC Parliament, Sky) three times and it gradually became apparent that there was a streaming problem. But the staff were slow to admit this and indicated they would get it sorted out - which they didn't. There was a ridiculous nonsense at breakfast the next morning: on check-in we asked for one breakfast only and because the automated system couldn't cope with this, the receptionist promised to input this manually. The next morning this was not apparent to the breakfast people at the cheaper rate. I paid cash. On check-out I was asked to pay again. Fortunately I had the cash receipt. Hopeless and very irritating. Also at breakfast I asked the staff for marmalade but they didn't know if any of the pots contained marmalade or not. Just shoulder-shrugging. Why not label the pots - couldn't be easier, surely. Bad start to the day which has resulted in a less than positive review.
