Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers spacious and gorgeously decorated rooms, although the price is a bit on the higher side. The service is top-notch, with extremely friendly and helpful staff always ready to assist. The location is vibrant and alive, perfect for exploring Brick Lane and Columbia Road. The dining experience is good but could be more exciting, especially for the hotel's caliber. Overall, a pleasant stay with great amenities.
The hotel is in a vibrant location, close to great dining options and within walking distance of trendy bars. The rooms felt like waiting areas rather than cozy living spaces and had a toilet flushing issue into the main breakfast room. The staff provided exceptional service, ensuring every need was met with enthusiasm. The dining experience was decent, but it could have been more exciting considering the hotel's caliber. The location offers a mix of fun, vibrancy, and accessibility but can feel congested at times.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. Although there were some noise issues from a nearby nightclub/bar that stopped after 2 pm, my Dalston King room had a partial view of the city due to the roof terrace. The location in trendy Hoxton-Shoreditch was convenient for exploring the area, but the overall value for money wasn't fully justified.
