Compact Studio - 2 People

The kitchen has the essentials for simple meals. You’ll have room to store, refrigerate and reheat food. This includes basic tableware and cutlery. Lazy morning? You can prep an easy breakfast here without heading out.

Freshen up for the day — or wind down for a cosy night. This studio has 1 bathroom.

Settle in for a film night with your own TV. The bravest folks can practise their language skills with the local channels.

The interior is refined, with a distinctly “London” edge. Comfort and simplicity lead the way, but vintage and locally upcycled pieces are the details you’ll fall in love with. It’s well-put together without conforming — just like the locals.

You’re surrounded by history, but this apartment knows modern living. Freshly built in 2023, it’s one of Bob’s newest spots. Want to help us write its story?

We’ve designed this property with clever storage, so you can actually unpack. There’s space for your clothes, shoes, books, and the cuddly toy you take everywhere. Make yourself at home.

A big bag won’t ruin your plans to explore the neighbourhood. We work with a trusted local partner who’ll store your bags for free.

No more check-in queues and lost keycards. Check in online before you arrive. Access your room using your phone.

Flying into London and making your way to Bob W Tower Hill Studios? Welcome! London has several airports, so here’s a guide on how to get to us.



A Few Tips Before You Start💡
Check Real-Time Routes: Public transport in London can have delays or changes. We highly recommend using an app like CityMapper for the most accurate, real-time routes and timings on the day you travel.

Taxis vs. Shuttles: A black cab or Uber from distant airports can be very expensive (£100-£200+) and take 1-2+ hours in traffic. For a potentially cheaper option, you can search online for a pre-booked 'London Airport Shuttle Service'.

Bob's Tips for Parking in London 💡
ULEZ is London-Wide! The Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) covers ALL London boroughs. This means most vehicles need to meet specific emission standards to avoid a daily charge. Check your vehicle's status on the Transport for London (TfL) website before you travel. This applies 24/7.

Congestion Charge Zone (CCZ): Bob W Tower Hill Studios is within the Congestion Charge Zone. So, if you're driving there during charging hours, the daily CCZ fee will apply on top of any ULEZ charge and parking costs.

Tube & Bus It? Tower Hill is exceptionally well-connected. It has its own Tube station (Circle & District Lines), Tower Gateway DLR station, Fenchurch Street national rail station nearby, and numerous bus routes. It's often the easiest and quickest way to get here and explore the rest of London.

Details

Step 1: Complete Your Online Check-In
Head to our secure check-in portal here: https://reception.bobw.co/check-in

You can do this any time before arriving, no need to wait for check-in day. This helps us get everything ready for your stay.



Find your booking number
You’ll need this to check in online. It’s usually in your confirmation email from wherever you booked (Airbnb, Booking.com, etc.). Look for terms like:

“Booking/confirmation number”

“Booking ID”

“Reservation number”

Can’t find it? Check your spam folder—emails love to hide there sometimes 😉



Get your door code
Once your check-in is complete, your unique door code will pop up on the evening before check-in day in the Guest Area under "Open Doors". That’s how you’ll access your apartment—no keys needed!



Do I need to add my credit card to the check-in form?
Only if you want to book extras, like breakfast, or if you'll be staying in one of the city tax locations seen here.

If your stay was fully paid via your company or booking site, you can skip this step—just leave the credit card fields empty and close the tab. Easy!



Didn’t get a confirmation email?
Double-check that your email and phone number are correct.

We always send your check-in info by email—and often via SMS or WhatsApp too. Still nothing? Just reach out and we’ll sort it 👍

Please read Bob's house rules carefully. If you break them, you will be charged a fine and/or your booking will be terminated – and no one wants that!
Respect your neighbours. You're sharing the building with other guests and residents. Be aware of your noise levels and keep things tidy. Quiet hours are 10 pm - 8 am daily.
‍
No parties or any events that might disturb other guests. We know, parties are fun, but people need their rest too.
‍
No pets, unless otherwise confirmed in advance by Bob W in writing. Just reach out with questions!
‍
Shoes off inside. Not only does this reduce noise for your neighbours, but it also keeps the apartment clean and in good shape.
‍
No smoking, even on balconies. Please use marked outdoor smoking areas.
‍
No drugs or use of any illegal substances. If we find a reason to believe this is happening during or after your stay, you will be reported to the local authorities and that’d be a major bummer.
‍
No rubbish in the hallways. Please check your apartment for instructions on how to deal with rubbish and recycling.
‍
Respect our cleaners. Although each apartment is thoroughly cleaned after check-out, please pick up after yourself and use common sense when leaving. If you leave a big mess that takes extra time to clean up, you’ll be charged.
‍
Keep to your check-in and check-out times. Your last-minute schedule changes impact our cleaners and other guests.
‍
Report any possible damage you see in the apartment during your stay so Bob can fix it.
‍
You are always fully responsible to pay for damages caused by you, your guests or pets. Any violations of the law or fraudulent activities will result in immediate termination of your booking and will be reported to the local police for further investigation. It’s Bob’s responsibility to make sure all guests are safe and have a good time! Thanks for your understanding and for helping us out with this.
