Swissotel Howard Hotel
The hotel is located just a short walk from Covent Garden with its theatres, restaurants, night life and shopping, and world-famous London landmarks such as St Paul's Cathedral, the Houses of Parliament, Tate Modern and the London Eye all within easy reach. The nearest underground station (Temple) is just 1 minute's walk away.


Swissotel Howard Hotel
The Swissôtel Howard Hotel is a modern property set in a quiet oasis just off the Thames Embankment. In spite of its somewhat spartan shell, the interior has retained sumptuous 18th century décorative touches, such as friezes, ornate ceilings and pillars. The spacious lobby is a case in point, being handsomely appointed with dark marble floors, a granite reception desk and crystal chandeliers. Overlooking the River Thames or the hotel's Garden Courtyard, the 189 guestrooms enjoy attractive views. The bedrooms are crisply decorated with a brown colour palette, complemented by dark-wood furniture, light wood floors, and lots of suede and leather, as well as splashes of white and red. All are clean and well maintained, as are the en suite bathrooms. The hotel's stylish restaurant, “Jaan”, serves fine cuisine based on modern French cooking and enhanced by delicate and subtle Asian flavours and scents. Its décor is contemporary and elegant, with ceiling-to-floor sliding glass doors overlooking the serene Garden Courtyard, which offers alfresco dining during warmer months. Adjacent to the garden is Temple Bar, the perfect place to enjoy casual conversation and a cigar, complemented by a glass of aged whisky, whilst savouring the traditional and cosy atmosphere. Alternatively, guests can also relax in Mauve, the new, modern and stylish lounge serving afternoon tea and light meals during the day and specially selected wines, champagnes and cocktails during the evening.

Comment
Great hotel, big room, excellent professional service at reception, very helpful staff. Staff offered late check-out facility at weekend without being requested. Right beside the tube station.
Top Tip
Got a river boat from near the hotel to the O2 arena - very convenient for events there, yet still in central london.
