We needed an easy, dog-friendly place to crash for 2 nights. Whitechapel is not the most beautiful area but there are tons of restaurants, markets, pubs, parks, etc. You've got the river and bridges to the south, Hackney to the north and Soho to the west so it’s relatively central. Transport options are good and there's Macro Food Centre right across the street for quality produce and groceries. The hotel itself is clean and everything in pretty new condition. Kitchen has a kettle with small coffee/tea set up, fridge has two free water bottles and milk, bathroom has Le Labo toiletries. Water pressure was strong only in the morning. Sadly the bed was small and lumpy with just one thin duvet barely covering it. No extra bedding and super lumpy pillows too. The window only opens a crack so ventilation isn't great. Our thermostat and safe were broken. Both mornings on our way out, we asked the receptionist to send someone up to fix them while we were gone. Both times we came back in the evening and still no one had ever come to fix them nor did any maids ever even tidy the room. The gym is small but clean, open 24 hours and in good condition. Breakfast is a common “continental” spread with pastries, cheese and meat slices. Not worth paying for with so many better options in the area. When we asked about the "free bottle of wine" we were given a tiny single serving bottle lol. Overall it's clean with good location and price. But let down in service and amenities.
