 Whilst we paid for a river view the room looked into an adjacent building site with the river at an oblique angle Fortunately it was the weekend and there were no workers on site otherwise they could have looked straight into our bedroom The free bottle of Prosecco and chocolates partly compensated for this The hotel is being extended and is surrounded by building sites 
 Despite being south of the river it is possible to walk into Westminster or Vauxhall we like walking and access the tube network
