Hotel La Tour

By the Top3Hotels editorial team. Based on Booking.com guest scores and reviews, location data and reference prices. We did not stay at this hotel. Updated 2026-10-24.

Hotel La Tour is worth booking if you want a central 4-star base in Milton Keynes with a gym, restaurant, family rooms and a wide breakfast menu. On the reference dates it was the dearest of our three picks, though, so it only makes sense if those extras matter to you and you budget for parking and drinks.

We may earn a commission if you book. It never changes our pick.

Who it suits and who should skip it

Families and business travellers who want facilities under one roof are the best match. The property lists a gym, a restaurant, family rooms, free Wi-Fi and air conditioning. Breakfast options are broad on paper: continental, full English or Irish, vegetarian, vegan, halal, gluten-free, buffet and breakfast to go.

Price-sensitive travellers should look again. Our Budget and Luxury picks in the city were both cheaper on the reference dates, and guests say food, drinks and parking fees are high here. If you only need a bed near the centre, you can spend less.

Location and getting around

The address is 400 Marlborough Gate. Guests rate the location 9.3 out of 10 and mention the shopping centre, theatre, restaurants and Campbell Park being close by. By straight-line estimate, the Grand Union Canal is about 1.2 km away, roughly 15 minutes on foot.

The bigger sights are far. Bletchley Park is about 5.3 km, around 66 minutes on foot, and Stony Stratford is about 7.2 km, around 90 minutes. For both, plan on public transport or a taxi.

What guests say

With 8,534 reviews averaging 8.6, this is the most reviewed of our three picks in Milton Keynes. Guests praise the central setting and a friendly, helpful and polite team that gives a warm welcome.

The recurring complaint is about extras. Room rates are seen as reasonable, but food, drinks and parking fees are described as high. That changes the real cost of a stay, especially if you drive or plan to eat in the hotel.

Price and how it compares with our other Milton Keynes picks

The reference price seen for a 2-night stay in November 2026 (10 to 12 Nov, 2 adults, one room) was €201.96 a night, about €404 for two nights. That is above the €190.59 median of the hotels we compared. It is a reference price, not a live quote, so check today's price for your dates.

DoubleTree By Hilton Milton Keynes, our Budget pick, was about €148.17 a night with the same 8.6 score. Moxy Milton Keynes, our Luxury pick, was about €162.03 a night and scores 8.8. On these dates La Tour cost more than both. What it adds over them, from our data, is the restaurant, family rooms and the long breakfast list; whether that is worth around €40 to €54 a night is your call.

Why it made our top 3

We compared 7 eligible hotels in Milton Keynes. The Best Value slot balances guest score, number of reviews and price, so it is not meant to be the cheapest. La Tour sat joint 2 of 7 on score and has by far the deepest review record, which weighed heavily.

Prices move, and on other dates the gap with our other picks may be smaller or larger. Check all three before deciding.

Before you book

Ask for the parking price and check whether breakfast is included, since our data lists breakfast types but not inclusion. Confirm the cancellation terms.

Room size, noise and renovation condition have not been assessed. If you need a family room, confirm it is available for your dates.
