hub by Premier Inn London Spitalfields, Brick Lane Hotel

Great location, clean and modern. Great breakfast; excellent staff. The only minus side is room is rectangular - may not be able to swing a big suitcase under the bed if needed.

Pros Not too bad a location, can get a little uncomfortable at night for solo travellers while heading back as there are few people loitering around. Smart rooms, control panel control the lights and the signs for the door. Compact room but it's cosy for one. Cons (scary encounter) Someone rang my doorbell and tried to force open the room door in the middle of the night. Luckily i locked it from the inside and door couldn't be opened. It happened twice within the same night. There was no room phone so i had to call the hotel from my own mobile, and feeling puzzled, 2 staff came up to my room to clarify. They then told me a drunk 'guest' was 'assisted' to come up the hotel rooms, but she had actually went to the wrong hotel. Weird explanation, because firstly, a room key is needed to access the lift. Secondly, if the person who assisted the drunk guest is a hotel staff who owns a master key since he's able to access the lift, he should've verify her identity prior to allowing the guest up the rooms premises. Its a safety concern. What if I did not lock the room door from the inside? The drunk guest could have just barged in and i as a female, was staying alone. Lastly, there was no kettle, only 2 bottles of water.

Great location for Spitalfields Market / Brick Lane. Staff are always friendly and helpful. Well equipped bar/restaurant. Room has all you need when you're spending most of your time out sightseeing, with good connections to tubes/river taxi etc. Overall great value option for central London.

Friendly, welcoming, helpful staff. Great location. Comfortable and quiet room. Complimentary tea and coffee very much appreciated. Close to tube station and easy access to Central London. Always stay here (when the price is right!) when visiting London.
