What they say
Also in Condé Nast Traveler.
Inside, the hotel’s jaunty ’60s-esque aesthetic is amusingly tongue-in-cheek. Eccentrically cantilevered red hanging lamp shades and Scandinavian crystal chandeliers team with a red cushioned Eero Aarnio plastic bubble chair...
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
The square outside hosts Bermondsey's historic Friday antiques market, with Bermondsey Street boutiques and London Bridge a short walk away.

Compact bedrooms feature Grohe drench showers and Vi-Spring mattresses, while top-floor loft suites open onto private terraces overlooking London.
