Guest Reviews
- Evy (9/5): Clean, modern and comfortable - Clean, modern and comfortable.
- monique (9/5): très agréable - le personnel petit déjeuner trop cher et la douche avec vitre transparente pouvant être vue de la chambre
- Sarah (10/5): -
- Werner (10/5): -
- eric (9/5): Create location for Exploring central &i south east London - Great location - Nice trendy Hotel No tea making facilities in the room
- Camille (10/5): - Super bien situé, silencieux, personnel très sympa
- Henning (1/5): -
- Francesca (10/5): -
- PROCOPE (8/5): - La localisation, le personnel et la décoration. Un bureau un peu petit et le lavabo dans l'entrée/couloir/chambre.
- Eva (10/5): - Guter Ausgangspunkt um London zu entdecken. Freundliches und zuvorkommend Personal. Super Frühstück. War bereits unser 2. Aufenthalt. Wir kommen wieder! Um in die Dusche zu gelangen, musste man die Tür der Toilette offen lassen, weil man nur auf diesem Weg zur Dusche kam und der Platz zu wenig war.
- Christa (10/5): - I really like the design and general vibe of this hotel. It's stylish and comfortable. In particular, I believe that it smells quite nice. Furthermore, the street that it's in is vibrant and cute.
- Anisa (9/5): -
- TanjaAuernhammer (9/5): -
- Tomislav (6/5): Acceptable accomodation for tourist purposes if you do not have light sleep (because of noise). - Location is good for touristic purposes. Breakfast without scrambled eggs, really?
There was a smell coming out of sink/toilette/bathroom whenever I opened water so I had to open window afterwards every time. Technician came but he was of no help. Room 408 is kinda noisy from the street and from inside. However rooms on the other side (without balcony) are at constant screeching noise from the train/railway.
- Tom (10/5): -
- James (10/5): Very friendly and efficient - Location
- Kathleen (10/5): - Great location with pedestrian friendly streets to small restaurants and bars. Still within close walk to trains, bridges and river views. Comfy beds and adequate space for short stay. May want larger room for longer stays with more space to unpack and hang clothes. Noise could be an issue as bars are near, was not for us.
- Jasna (10/5): -
- Chris (9/5): Could have done with room tea facilities and a small. I recognise that there is are such facilities on each floor but th - Convenient to Waterloo station.
Clean, compact and comfortable Nothing
- allen (10/5): Fun vibe and warm welcoming staff highlight this excellent boutique hotel - Ruby Lucy is a delightful boutique hotel, Located on a vibrant pedestrian-priority street lined with restaurants, bars and shops, the hotel offers a fun and upbeat vibe in an ultra modern setting. Despite the quiet street feel, the Ruby is also but a few minutes walk of Waterloo Station. People actually live in this area and the feel of the neighborhood is warm. Nearby is a small neighborhood park across from the Old Vic where people lounged sunning on the grass. We arrived early for check-in to drop our bags and were welcomed by Marcelo with a big smile. Actually the friendly staff is a big part of what makes this place special. In only a three day stay we felt like we knew everyone. They treated us as if we were their favorite house guests. Kudos to Melody, Emily, Su (creator of wonderful cocktails), Aki, Marcelo and Gustavo. A fun surprise was the guitar amp and speaker that invited us to plug in and enjoy either our own music or to tune in to Ruby Radio (yes they have their own playlist on Spotify). There are even two guitars available for use by guests should they be so inclined. Our room was a tad tight. An oversized and wonderfully plush bed was the standout but space to put things and get around in the room was extremely limited. The limited size of the room was offset by a nice balcony overlooking the vibrant street scene.

- Rob (10/5): Absolute aanrader voor een trip naar Londen - Echt een gezellig hotel in een ontzettend leuke wijk die supercentraal ligt, met ruime kamers Kan ik niet bedenken

- Sari (10/5): - Siisti ja rauhallinen
- Martin (10/5): - Top Lage, außergewöhnlich nettes Personal, Klasse Frühstück
- Michael (9/5): Lovely friendly staff in a lovely boutique style hotel, hopefully IHG keeps it as it is as that’s the appeal of the plac - It’s our go to place when we visit London.
The rooms are clean and ideal for our needs, the cosy bar and seating area is spot on for a couple of quiet night caps before retiring to bed for the night. The fact I always book a year in advance and when I tried to book for next year it is currently not available to do so.
- Kelly (10/5): Excellent and fabulous service -
- Klaus (8/5): -
- Eleanor (9/5): Ruby hotels are cool but prices are now too high - Proximity to
Waterloo. Staff. Surroundings. Pretty decor Price has increased and it’s now too expensive
- Tarryn (9/5): -
- Caroline (10/5): My new favourite central London hotel - Welcoming staff, very clean, quiet at night, comfy beds, 24/7 bar and close to the station. Easy self check in. Free drink at the bar. Very good value for money. If there was one thing missing it was a bottle of water in the room but the bar was open so I could get one. Really good hotel, I would highly recommend. Sloping tables at breakfast made it tricky to balance my plate - I’m couldn’t think of anything else
- mw91 (10/5): -
- Astrid (8/5): Sehr schönes Hotel in perfekter Lage für einen London-Trip - Fantastisch gelegen, supernettes Personal, schöne Zimmer, richtig gutes Frühstück. Barbetrieb mit etwas eingeschränkter Getränkeauswahl
- L.R. (8/5): -
- Lira (10/5): -
- Pirmin (10/5): Tolles und nettes Personal und eine grandiose Lage um die Stadt zu erkunden - Das Personal war sehr nett und immer hilfreich. Das Hotel liegt sehr gut um sehr schnell in London herum zu kommen und die Stadt zu erkunden.
- Dina (7/5): Es war ein schöner Aufenthalt, den ich gerne wiederholen würde. Danke! - Die Lage war erstklassig, das Frühstück gut und das Personal erstklassig. Freue mich auf eine Wiederholung! Dass im Zimmer kein Schrank war und dass am Vormittag plötzlich kein Wasser aus der Leitung kam…
- Birgitta (8/5): Great for a short stay on the occasion of the London Marathon. - Lovely, quirky interior, excellent location
- Miguel (10/5): - Location and the guys at the cafe/bar
- Emma (10/5): -
- Erwin (8/5): Wij hebben genoten en komen nog een keer terug - De ligging in Lower Marsh, achter Waterloo Station is perfect voor een citytrip. De hotelkamer is oké, maar het personeel is zeer behulpzaam en aardig, dat maakt echt het verschil.
- Dario (10/5): Perfekte Location - man ist schnell in der Stadt, super Betten - Das Team !! Ein super super gutes, junges, nettes Team !! Wir kommen wieder !
- Tim (10/5): -
- Tim (9/5): Modernes Hotel in zentraler Lage - Sehr zentrale Lage, freundliche Mitarbeiter
- lauren (10/5): Brilliant stay , would definitely come back to this hotel. Thanks for making my 30th birthday weekend a trip to remember - Room was spotless & staff were really friendly. Brilliant location also. Would definitely stay here again. There was nothing we didn’t like.
- Marie-Eve (9/5): à recommander! - Emplacement, confort et le personnel incroyablement chaleureux Le manque d’intimité de la douche

La propreté Rien
- Federica (9/5): -
- Rene (8/5): Overall, it was a good stay. - The location was convenient. Room could have used space saving storage (under bed or under table).
- helena (1/5): No es correspón en cap cas el preu amb el que et trobes , molt car per lo que ès l hotel , no el recomaria - Únicament la localització Les habitacions , soroll de trens , soroll d un aparell que hi ha de ventilació a l’habitació i que no para … habitacions molt molt senzilles
- Sami (9/5): -
- Tom (9/5): - Mooi modern hotel met leuke vibes en ruime kamers. Personeel heel erg vriendelijk

- Heiko (9/5): -
- Julia (10/5): Best Hotel in Waterloo - Everything was above and beyond what was expected loved it so much staying here again very soon There is nothing I didnt like about the hotel
- Lauren (10/5): Great location and hotel overall! - Great atmosphere, small but great breakfast, nice/friendly staff, rooms small but well appointed. Location was fantastic! The room darkening curtains didn’t fully reach the wall so the AM light came in. It’s across the street from a bar that was hopping at night which required me to wear ear plugs. Without them I would have been bothered as I’m an extremely light sleeper. Although it didn’t phase my daughter.
- Samantha (8/5): Great price, providing exactly what we needed - Fabulous location just around the corner from Waterloo. Staff were friendly and helpful. Great price for what we needed. Was a little noisy in the morning, I think this is because our room was next to staff storage cupboards, possibly cleaning.

- Sara (10/5): -
- Camille (9/5): Schönes Hotel, tolle Lage - Sehr freundliches Personal, sauberes Zimmer. Frühstück sehr gut, auch wenn es aus Platzgründen etwas beschränkt war.
Sehr gute Lage.
Die Handtücher sind riesig und flauschig. Die meisten Frühstückstische sind für 2 Personen sehr bzw. zu klein.

- Tanya (7/5): It was good - Location The bedroom
- Sam (9/5): -
- Wilssens (10/5): - Bar en optreden
Hele nette kamer Niets
- Fiona (10/5): - The facilities on the corridor, tea/coffee, ironing board... Room was a little too warm , and for some reason on last morning the air con wouldn't turn down .
Could be a better seal on bathroom door to give more privacy 💩😊
- Sandro (9/5): Excellent stay for business trip -
- Jamie (5/5): Nice staff, but I won't be staying there again. - The staff in general were good. They just seamed to be hampered by management not being there. I liked the free access teas and coffees on the landing. To say that there is a restaurant on site is pushing the reality a bit. They have a very small fixed menu, which I suspect was based on frozen ready meals. They were missing ingredients for various cocktails, basic stuff. The breakfast was really not to my liking, if you like a small selection alternative types of breakfast, this is for you, wasn't for me. Not being able to get an invoice printed on site, even after I paid, was a stress. All business trips and expenses in my company have to be supported by correct invoicing, but being emailed one at 12 o'clock the following day after check-out was not appreciated, as at that time I was already in a different country. In my opinion, this isn't a 4 star property, but a very good 3 star. Feels like it's trying to be a Citizen M, but noth really there.
- Simon (9/5): Quirky venue, very handy position -
- hannah (10/5): I would definaty stay again but not opt for breakfast - So quirky and different The breakfast was very odd, the price is extremely high for what you got.
- Nicholas (7/5): -
- Christian (8/5): -
- Jesse (10/5): -
- Maria (8/5): Recomiendo Hotel por su ubicación cerca de metro y calle muy chula. - Hotel muy bien situado, personal muy amable. Buena ubicación. Desayuno le añadiría algo mas de opción. Pero en general todo perfecto y hotel estupendo.
- Simon (10/5): Brilliant boutique hotel, excellent value for money - Location was great just around the corner from Waterloo station. Staff were all amazing and very welcoming. Room was clean and the bed very comfortable. The attention to detail was way beyond expectations. Very cosy. Could not get the Bluetooth to work on the speaker in the room, some instructions would have been good. Hey, but let's face it as problems go, it is negligible. I used my phone instead. It did not deter from a brilliant stay.
- Sjoerd (8/5): Fantastic stay, highly recommended - Very nice location Could have been a bit cleaner
- Katharina (9/5): Super Lage, jederzeit wieder - Das interkontinentale Frühstück war top! Guter Kaffee, die Auswahl war vielfältig und sehr freundliches Personal.
Die Lage vom Hotel ist ausgezeichnet, ruhig und doch zentral. Man erreicht die Sehenswürdigkeiten gut zu Fuß. Die Straße bietet ein vielfältiges kulinarisches Angebot.
Das Hotel Personal war sehr freundlich, hilfsbereit und zuvorkommend.
Die Kaffeestationen auf den Etagen ist gut ausgestattet und man kann sich jederzeit etwas nehmen.
Das Bett war sehr bequem. Leider kann man die Fenster zum lüften nicht öffnen.
Die integrierte Toilette und Dusche aus Glas ist nicht jedermanns Sache, da Privatsphäre fehlt.
In unserem Zimmer wäre noch Platz für eine kleine Sitzecke gewesen, so hatte man nur das Bett als Sitzmöglichkeit.
Stauraum gibt es wenig, man lebt aus dem Koffer.
- GILLIAN (10/5): - The staff were exceptional. So welcoming and and nothing was a problem. The overall 'feel' in the hotel was really lovely.
The rooms were perfect - big, comfortable bed, a Marshall Stanmore BT for connecting to Spotify, soundproof rooms, amazing shower. The toilet area being housed in a glass cubicle - fine if solo traveller but not ideal if sharing the room.

- Aruni (9/5): -
- Moises (1/5): Me han estafado y me han cobrado el doble por la misma reserva y nadie se quiere hacer cargo de la devolución de una hab -
- Denise (10/5): I would definitely stay here again. - Despite the fact that Booking caused me several inconveniences and I arrived at the hotel with my reservation not properly registered and without the payment having been transferred — even though I had already paid — the hotel staff handled the situation wonderfully.
Melanie at the reception was absolutely incredible, and the entire team was extremely attentive, kind, and professional. They made a stressful situation much easier and treated me with great care.
The hotel is very well located, clean, and cozy. Although there is no microwave available, this was not really an issue during my stay.
Overall, the hotel fully met my expectations. The real highlight is definitely the reception team, who were truly outstanding. Everything fine.
