Situated just minutes from London Bridge and the city's financial district, this fantastic new development encompasses an internal square the size of Piccadilly Circus.

Rising from the northern tip of the development is a 22-storey landmark tower, specially designed to make its own distinct architectural statement. Designed by award winning architects, this landmark development presents a new vision of contemporary city living. Stylish apartments and penthouses are on offer, many with striking views across London. The site is complimented by landscaped public areas and facilities for cafes, restaurants and shops. Apartment benefits include complimentary broadband, a weekly linen change and Molton Brown toiletries.

The emphasis here is on light and space, with all apartments boasting large picturesque windows, most with floor to ceiling glazing in the living room. This building is a must for corporate and leisure travellers, with high quality serviced accommodation that offers all the comforts and spaciousness of home but with many of the facilities of a hotel. Marlin Apartments specialise in offering a selection of superior quality apartments with a service that is second-to-none; all at an affordable price.

The Marlin was the best accomodation in all departments that my family and i have experienced. The apartment looked as if we were the first customers to use it .It was spotless and the facilities were second to none. The staff on the reception were a credit to the company. they were friendly both to me and my children and were so helpful to helping me when my car broke down .Nothing was to much tr

Very close to the center of London. London Bridge and the Borough Market is right on your doorstep. Very convenient to get around London.

Check out time is at 10.30 which is a bit early. Also you can't check in until 3 o'clock which is slighty crazy.

Excellent rooms, nice apartment.

Suffocatingly hot and no way to turn it down, had to open all the windows. Also a bit musty smell in the hallways.

The location was perfect, the apartment clean and comfortable. I would stay there again, if onlt they were more responsive to my complaints about the internet problem.

Yes, the internet went out of service on Saturday, and despite calls to the concierge, was not fixed for the remaining duration of our stay. VERY VERY VERY inconvenient - I needed it for work.
