The Hoxton, Shoreditch

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!

very good room very helpful reception good food liked luggage storage

Nice.

such a great place to stay and explore. i love walking in to the space and being greeted by a team of happy people. how cool is that just in itself... not too formal at all, laid back and full of energy and warmth and information and suggestions if you want it. we were there three nights and every night we came back we were greeted and helped by the men at the door, or the people at the desk... best service and graciousness from beginning to end. will definitely recommend. we almost stayed at Nobu around the corner because i like that hotel atmosphere generally but the hoxton was perfect for the area and bringing my 18 year old son and showing him London for the first time. also, it was great for him to see the child out work area at different times during the day and be packed and everyone be in different modes of work solo or with someone or hang out and chat. would love a space like this in the east bay / bay area, california...

The welcome was excellent, the bar lively but the rooms quiet and comfortable

Good atmosphere, beautiful rooms/venue, good food, super service, we really enjoyed our trip in London!
