Park in front of property felt shady after sunset. Bed was uncomfortable, took two days for room to cool off so if being green means i sweat in my sleep than i wont stay green again. Breakfast was good. Bar convenient. Busy place with people in an out but rooms small and mattress was subpar. Seemed like new management had taken over and still trying to figure things out. Felt liek i paid too much for what it offers. 2.5 stars at best.

Fantastic Find in the Heart of Aldegate!!

Unique hotel with minimalist, eco-friendly rooms and surroundings. It’s right at the heart of the East of London so walkable to many lively areas with a multitude of options for food, drink, and entertainment (including Brick Lane). The staff are welcoming, warm, and friendly; always eager to assist. I’ll definitely return.

Staff was very friendly and accommodating. AC unit was in the room but not working properly and I went during late August so I was very uncomfortable. Room was super small and could barely walk freely around. Other than that I truly enjoyed my stay. Close to train and can get to many places in London with ease.

Good modern hotel

Nice modern hotel. Free coffee. Close to an underground station, cafes and Tesco Express. Doors lock at 9:00 p.m., but you can still open them with a card. Bar open 24/7. A large bed and a good blanket. The bathroom lacked ventilation and soundproofing. Weird furniture and trash bins.

I enjoyed my experience at the the corner London City. I found it convenient to get to the tube and easy to get around. The hotel felt safe & I like that there was a bar in the lobby to hang out at night if you didn't feel like going out.

Hassle free check in and we were allowed to check in early as our room was ready for us. Excellent coffee machine available on each floor and we stayed in a very quiet and spacious, internal room with no windows. Great location and only a 5 min walk to Aldgate east tube station.

Excellent Location

Loved the location and the room. Easy to access the subway. We enjoyed the nearby Brick Lane. A small thing to comment on was the bathroom door being very hard and loud to open and close. We also could have used one more outlet. That being said, we loved the free drink at the bar if we didn’t have our room cleaned.
