Comfortable but over designed.

We didn't love the shower and toilet area. It was all frosted glass. So you could see through it for the most part. But it was comfortable otherwise.

For the price, the location, cleanliness and service was great. However the only light source was the window through the bathroom which you would draw the blinds as it’s a public facing window. So the room was constantly very dark and insufficiently lit. There was also an issue with the shower door seal so a massive puddle would form in the bathroom and flow towards the bedroom after every shower (room 111). We would stay here again but request for a higher floor.

Mediocre

It was ok. Relatively clean and tidy, but irritating things like lighting and TV did not work, making the evening here less relaxing. Especially given the tiny room size, which was literally the length of the bed.

Overall a very clean and well designed space, however the only downside was the bathroom. The pictures didn’t show the bathroom properly and it was very much in the middle of the room and not much ventilation into the shower/WC. Other than that, very good value for money.

We stayed here for 3 nights and had a great experience. We even got 5% off when we skipped the housekeeping service which could be availed on any of the food items or drinks. The only negative that could be easily serviced is providing water refill stations at every floor. Currently they have it only at the lobby. The room don't provide water bottle so would be great if you could provide water bottles as a basic which could then be refilled by the guests themselves. Thank you for making our experience in London great!

Ok- no frills

I love Yotels, and this one was fine- good location, just what I needed, BUT I couldn’t get the temperature quite right- usually either too hot or too cold. And I only needed the room cleaned once during my stay, but they didn’t change the sheets (??) and the floor was dirty.

I rarely leave negative reviews, but our stay at YOTEL London City was extremely disappointing and nothing like what was advertised.     1.    Misleading room size & pictures – Our room was described as 118 sq ft, but in reality, it was closer to 90 sq ft with only about 30 sq ft of walking space. Photos online (via Expedia) made it look far larger and more open.     2.    Awful view – Every morning we woke up to a view of a brick wall, unlike the brighter, more open views shown online.     3.    Poor room placement – Both of our rooms were placed in the back tower with no natural light or decent view.     4.    Inconvenient bed setup – The bed has to be folded upright during the day to make any walking space.     5.    Zero luggage space – Nowhere to comfortably store suitcases without blocking pathways.     6.    Design flaw at sink – If one person uses the sink, the walking space around the bed is completely blocked.     7.    Shower disaster – Every time we showered, the bathroom flooded and water poured into the room. We were constantly stepping in puddles of soap and water, turning our “hotel room” into a slippery, unsafe swimming pool.     8.    Air conditioning failure – The AC is programmed to shut off automatically. We woke up sweating in the middle of the night multiple times and couldn’t fall back asleep, leading to sleep deprivation and completely ruining the trip’s comfort.
Sink: if one person does happen to be at the sink, then the other person wont be able to get access to that wide of the room or the bathroom.
The view from my room is a brick wall.
No place to store or temp place luggage
Bed must be reclined upward for us to be able to walk around the bed to the bathroom and not hit the tv box on the wall.
