8/10 Very good

Nice hotel with very helpful staff.
leonard, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great Stay
Stayed as we were attending a show at the Troxy, a 4 minute walk away. Conveniently close to Limehouse station. The room was great with an extremely comfortable bed. No noise at night is a bonus. Breakfast was buffet style with plenty to choose from. The staff were excellent and happy to give directions. Even raising an eye when we informed them the street signposts are spelt wrong (they have Cath(E)rine). Would highly recommend.

A special, tranquil place in the heart of London
A very special place in the heart of London, which offers retreats, as well as accommodation for general tourists. It is well-decorated, clean, comfortable and so tranquil, it was hard to believe we were in such a busy area. The courtyard garden was lovely, the staff were so welcoming, the breakfast was good, and having a car park on site was a bonus, and unusual for central London. Do not be put off by the rather drab approach to the carpark, inside all is fine and secure. Limehouse station is only a couple of minutes' walk away, very handy for getting around London, but you don't hear it. We will definitely return.
