    Very good

  • Engine customer Apr 2025

    breakfast wasn't available at all due to chefs illness. Also, the advertised terrace was closed, the promoted "welcome drink" didn't materialise any of the facilities advertised would have been acceptable the lack of all of them was just not fair given the cost

  • Engine customer Apr 2025

    Clean and staff were really friendly Noise from the bar music and the cleaner cleaning the stairs at 7:15am

  • Engine customer Mar 2025

    The rooms were quirky and comfortable but also very clean. The staff are especially nice. Only improvement would be for them to serve breakfast on site. At the moment they have a kitchen and dining room but you have to walk down the street to another place for your breakfast.

  • Engine customer Mar 2025

    Every staff member was helpful, friendly, personable and efficient. The value for money was outstanding and set them apart from competitors. The price of the room included a free round of drinks, breakfast and 10 % off food and drink throughout the stay, this really made it stand out, was an unexpected bonus and would definitely make us stay again. The venue itself was buzzing, cute, and perfect for a city break. The rooms are slightly different to what they look like in the pics. A little more basic, but not off putting. If you were a larger person staying in the room we were in, they may struggle in the en-suite and shower. We were fine but it would be tight!

    Great location, vibrant area within 5 minutes of old Spitalfields market with lot's of food and drink stalls. Had a Sunday lunch in the Culpepper, nice food but a little on the pricey side for wine choices. Agree with the other review about toilet seat - easily sorted with a catch to stop it from falling down. Bijou bathroom but good hot shower. Breakfast was nice in the sister pub The Buxton but they didn't have any sausages for the full English which was disappointing, awaiting delivery.

  • Engine customer Mar 2025

    Great place and the pub offers drink on arrival. The breakfast was great too! Nice space, looks a bit better in the pictures but overall great value for the money! Comfy bed A bit noisy as pub downstairs goes on until 00:00. But if you have no issues with sleep, it’s doable. Light sleepers probably would want to avoid.

  • Engine customer Mar 2025

    Easy check-in, friendly staff and quiet room. Welcome drink is a nice touch. The location is great, and the room was perfect for 1 person (might be too small for 2 people). Breakfast was ok, but you have to go to a sister hotel that is located 200m. It's completely fine, but it's worth mentioning.

    A great nights stay in the perfect location Nothing

    Good

  • Engine customer Feb 2025

    Great location, nice breakfast at the Buxton, friendly staff at both hotels The bathroom was tiny, so tiny that the loo seat didn’t sit up and had to rest on your back whilst you peed! The air con from the kitchen below was quite noisy and the room was so hot, even with the radiator turned down that we slept with the window open meaning we heard a lot of street noise even though staff had kindly placed us in a quieter room

    Very good

  • Engine customer Feb 2025

    The location, it was clean, nice staff, cosy bar downstairs If I would have to name one thing, that breakfast was somewhere else and that quite some things of the breakfast menu were not available. However the quality of the breakfast served was still very good.

  • Engine customer Feb 2025

    At least the radiator heating worked well. Located on a noisy street with lots of traffic. The room was on the third floor. The two floors below are bar and dinner. You go through the bar, then stair up through the kitchen and then go to the room. All smell and noise form the kitchen and the bar go to the room in addition to the heavy traffic on the street. I was for 4 nights. On two of them I asked to have dinner with them and they refused: First day "Sorry, we are fully booked", Second try "Sorry, we have a large party". And you have no space for one person? Not a big deal, there are other good options in the area, but is not good. Very limited furniture in the room. The furniture is pretty old. All the feeling is of a not supported and not taking care about the property. The breakfast is in another bar 150 meters away. You choose from a menu from 4-5 options. All of them are eggs in different variations.

    The hotel was a nightmare. After the pub closed, I was locked out with no clear instructions on re-entry. A code was sent via email, but this unusual system wasn’t explained at check-in or posted onsite. There should be signs in the room, inside and outside the hotel stating what needs to be done. I was left cold and stranded. I demand a full refund for this poorly managed experience.

  • Engine customer Jan 2025

    I loved this accommodation, just up my street. Clean and fun rooms with all facilities that required. The food was delicious! Although the room and bathroom were great, the lavatory was a disaster! There is a ledge above the loo that makes the loo seat not open flush to the wall. When using the loo the seat rests on your back. Fine. Stand up and you cannot logistically do your business and stop the seat from closing. It just makes the whole lavatory experience more complicated than it needs to be.
