The Citadines Apartments in Islington are great, modern appliances and furniture. The room was also very clean and a lot of space. The Apartments are in a nice location with a lot of shopping options nearby. It’s easy to get into the Centre of London. Our favorite place to stay!

Terrific location, close to The Angel Underground, with good bus service on Upper Street, and not far from Kings Cross/St Pancras for major train connections. …

We stayed in a twin studio in April 2024 for 2 weeks. This was a great option for a longer stay given there is a small kitchen and a (somewhat expensive) laundry on site at the hotel. …

Big and modern rooms but the bed was rock hard and the duvet cover and pillow covers were inside out. Paid c £190 for one night so expect the covers to be at least on right! Never come across this in my life.

The location is fantastic, the staff was great! The manager accomodated our early check in request after a long flight which was incredibly helpful. We loved how quirky and fun the neighbourhood of Islington was, and Central London was just a hop away. Will definitely be back here!
