Travelodge London Central Aldgate East

It was a great experience！Anirudn was really helpful. I was looking for Somewhere to store my luggage before my check in and he was really helpful And warmly offered me help. But some rooms might be too close to the railway, so future guests could try to avoid those rooms.

Nice Little Bar, as the room was a bit hot it was nice to come down for a beer! thank you Karim you’re a great guy, thank you for your service I’ll be back as always.

The staff are lovely but this hotel backup needs a full refurb. Filthy carpet, broken wood, lift that is exceptionally noisy.

The travel lodge is on a dodgy street we did not feel safe walking back at 10pm at night. There is a 24/7 car wash next door to the travel lodge and there is constant noise all night from that with motor bikes and taxis wizzing up and down the street. IT is a narrow street so the sound echos and is very loud. The employees of the car wash are shouting and singing in the middle of the night and disturb your sleep. I did complain to travel lodge and ask how it is allowed when business in St Katherine’s dock like the restaurants have to shut at 10:30pm or 11pm. The local council need to shut the car wash down at that time of night as well so residents and hotel visitors can get some sleep. There is no air conditioning and it was 34 degrees when we were there so it was sweltering in the room, they did give us a fan but it did not help to be fair. There are trains passing close by so you also get the noise from those from about 5:30am to midnight. The staff were lovely and did their best and were always smiling and helpful but not a lot they could do about the noise. The room is a standard travel lodge room.

The hotel is in a great location with friendly staff and clean rooms. I've stayed there twice - the first time I was in a room on the street-facing side of the building and had a nice stay. This time I was in a room on the train-facing side of the building. The trains go past, just meters from my window, every 10-15 mintues from 5am to midnight and were so loud you couldn't sleep or hear the telly. Earplugs resolved the issue but then I didn't hear my alarm clock!
