Staff was extremely helpful and very friendly. The property is about 4 miles away from the center of London which is a quick Uber or taxi ride away. One drawback to the property is that located behind the hotel is a cement production facility with cement trucks coming in and out during the daytime. It wasn't that big of an issue because they closed down every night, but it is just not a very pleasant view to open your window up to. Nonetheless, we would definitely stay there again

Staff was really nice, the room was clean and comfy, no complaints there. However, the breakfast was just awful. The scrambled eggs tasted like water, the hashbrowns tasted stale and were very chewy and hard at the same time. They had vegan sausages available, however they looked very undercooked, so i wasnt brave enough to try them.

On arrival we were given the key to a room that was already occupied. This was quickly rectified We ate dinner at the hotel but the wrong meal was delivered. This was quickly rectified The fire alarm went off for a short time early in the morning. The room was comfortable and the breakfast was good. The staff were friendly, efficient and apologetic! I have stayed at the hotel previously without any issues, after this stay I am not sure I would stay again.

The hairdryer in our room did not work. At breakfast, it was chaos, so many people. People were taking many pastries/food out of the restaurant so there were none left for other guests. The restaurant was short staffed, tables left uncleared, food ran out and took a while to be replaced.

Great room, great AC. Unfortunately hotel right next to Cement Factory which starts incessant thudding noise at 4:00am which even the triple glazing can’t keep out. “Hot” English breakfast was cold. Coffee was DIY hot water and Nescafé (only decaf too). What hotel doesn’t have a whizzy coffee machine at breakfast these days? Cannot recommend.

Breakfast is disorganized. They were constantly running out of coffee in the machine and food on the buffet. Eggs tasted like powdered eggs - not good at all. Best part of hotel is its proximity to Limehouse station + walking distance from the river. Staff are very courteous.
