Excellent hotel for visiting the east side of the City of London. Close to Underground station for travel around London. Good value, except in busy time, when a bit pricey like all London hotels. Good selection for breakfast. Close to a busy crossroad, so can be noisy, if you like windows open. Otherwise fine with air con on. I stay... More

A great hotel ideally situated in London's East end. We were greeted by friendly staff who were efficient and professional at all times. On the day we arrived we asked to change rooms to accomodate family who at the last minute decided to join us and this was accomplished with no fuss or bother. Rooms are somewhat basic but clean...

Stayed for a weekend in June. Room was clean and quiet and the bed was very comfortable. The location was perfect for us, 10 minutes from Fenchurch Street, right around the corner from Aldgate East and a short walk from Brick Lane and Spitalfields market. The only downside was that the room was very warm but we were told that... More

Stayed in room #610 for three nights (June 8 to 11). The room was reasonably clean, but not in perfect shape (long black hair stuck to the bathroom wall, remained there for whole stay). The bed was comfortable, but not great (hard cushion, no daybed covers). Staff mostly polite and helpful. Tiny TV with few channels, screen not in 16:9... More

The hotel looks relatively new and is in excellent condition. The rooms were spotless and very well cared for. On arrival the reception staff were very friendly and helpful - we asked for a quieter room at the back and got one. The front of the hotel is on a busy road. Breakfast was good and plentiful. The hotel is... More

The location of this hotel is perfect, just 30 seconds from Aldgate East tube station. The standard of the room was what you'd expect from a budget hotel, but that's what you pay for and it's clean so there's no complaints there. However, on the rare occasion you get a bit of sun (which we did!) you expect the air-con... More
