Location is great for the tube, room was clean and spacious enough for 2. Staff were very helpful and welcoming especially Isabella who’s checked us in. Breakfast was good and what you expect from a buffet breakfast. Only small downside is not being able to control the temperature in your own room and having to go to reception as room was quite warm at night.

Everything you need, including iron/ironing board and hairdryer. Clean and compact. The staff were lovely, really helpful. Breakfast was great. For a nice stay in the middle of London at a reasonable price you need look no further. Photo from nearby street view.

Room was a bit smelly with a pretty weird bathroom, like a plastic container, sink pretty clogged. Was cleaned thoroughly every day, so cheers to that. Staff was generally great. Breakfast could use a bit variety but otherwise everything I tried was pretty really good and tasty. Very close to Aldgate tube station, so a big plus.

As far as Ibis hotels goes, this was a good one. The staff were not particularly enthusiastic, all seemed lacklustre…. But the rooms were clean and the bed was comfortable, the shower was a good size. The location is what we were happiest about, as it was within a couple of minutes walk from great pubs and restaurants in Shoreditch. Would definitely stay again!

We made our way here after our other reservation fell through with another hotel and honestly it was a life saver! Faisal and Maddy were such a kind people and helped us immensely by letting us recharge in the lobby and hold our bags while we figured out where to go since they were fully booked. The hotel is very well kept and having a metro stop right around the corner made getting around very convenient

I had a great stay here and I'd go again. The room was immaculate and spacious. The furniture has an element of fun to it. The breakfast was enjoyable. The receptions (Cristian and Mariana I believe?) were friendly and offered to sort out my luggage.
