The Hoxton, Shoreditch

The room was comfortable and clean and the location is great for the Shoreditch and Old Street areas. Also the ground floor lobby seemed very convenient for anyone who needs to work there on their laptop. Some details made the stay less comfortable than it could have easily been. There was no electricity plug in the bathroom, and no mini fridge, so no water in the room—had to go downstairs to get it. Additionally, during the late night we received two calls from the reception, probably by mistake, which woke us up.

Great weekend stay in a cosy double which had everything we needed and good optional extras. Great location too. Would recommend for an East London stay.

Good spot for work - the cafe downstairs is a go to for a morning work session. Also convenient to a lot of go to spots. Well designed.

We stayed at the Hoxton in a room for two with a full bed and liked it very much. The location is fabulous, as there are convenience stores, quick eats and a metro station just nearby. Shoreditch is tons of fun for a traveler who wants good nightlife, though it wouldn’t be the best fit for a family or for a traveler who wants a more mellow experience. As you enter, there is a large cafe/restaurant seating area in the lobby, which is remnant of the coffee shop in the TV show “Friends”. Same vibe! There’s good service for the cafe/restaurant, and all charges can simply be added to your room bill. The folks at the friend desk were very nice and helpful. After check in, you can take one of two elevators up to your room. The elevators were very quick- we never waiting for than a minute and we were there on a weekend! The room it self was exactly what we wanted. Clean, tidy and cozy. There wasn’t a ton of excess space, but that was perfect as we didn’t want to pay for a big, lavish room. All of the furniture seemed new, and the TV was hooked up so we could surf the channels when we had a moment. There was also a modern radio appliance, which had a USB that could let you charge devices. There was also a refrigerator and a safe for valuables. Additionally, they included a nifty map of London, which really came in handy for a first time visitor like myself. The bathroom’s fixtures all seemed new- everything was clean, and the shower was strong and spacious. There were plenty of towels as well and a great mirror with excellent lighting for getting ready. The only thing I wished was that there was an electrical outlet in the bathroom, but I didn’t find one. We didn’t have much of a view but that was okay- the curtains were strong and totally kept the light out in the mornings (which was great because we had some long nights.) All in all, I loved staying here- this is a perfect location for somebody staying in Shoreditch who wants a nice, clean, but well priced place to stay. I will absolutely stay here again when in Shoreditch!
