4/5
Great little hotel rooms, the bed retracts partway to make more room, doubles as an inclined long-chair style bed. Very small, but if you're just sleeping there that's fine, and I actually quite liked that. Biggest gripe is there wasn't anywhere convenient to hang the hand towel by the sink. Being allowed to check in early (for 20quid) was really nice to, since our flight landed at 6am and nothing is really open till 10am.

The hotel is nice and cool, in a great location. The breakfast setting is almost the same every day, but that didn't bother us. You can always make a different combination. The rooms are extremely clean.  …

Perfect stay, the rooms were very clean and functional - we booked a bunk bed room for three nights without breakfast as there are plenty of coffee shops and breakfast cafes nearby! I see a lot of comments about intimacy and how the bathroom and toilet are almost sheer: it is not true, you see the person’s body and shadow but it’s not sheer and there’s plenty of intimacy.So everything was perfect! Location wise as well!

I stayed at this hotel in three room types, always booked the most basic room. Not once did they mention the room has no windows, photos are deceiving and showed a window. …

The noise from the air con is constant and like a bus idling next to the room which is never leaving. The blue light from the wall mirror is so bright and can't be turned off that we needed to stack stuff to try and block it out. Eye mask and ear plugs needed if you want to be able to sleep.

While not in the most convenient or most interesting of locations, Yotel London City is a fine hotel with a good atmosphere and kind staff.I would, however, warn that their mattresses are incredibly firm. They caused quite a bit of discomfort for me over our stay.The bar and common areas on the ground floor are nice places to work and to chat, something other hotels at a similar price point may be lacking.The best part of this hotel is its undeniable value. If you book far enough in advance, you will get a fine stay in Central-ish London.

I liked my stay at Yotel London City. The room was small but comfortable and efficiently designed. The bed was great and the TV had Chromecast integrated.||However, there is little privacy, so I recommend it only for solo travelers or couples. The toilet and shower are behind a « frosted glass » only.

Clean modern hotel. Priced well. Walkable to Soho. Small room but that is to be expected. No seating area but bed folds partially like hospital bed, allowing you to sit up to watch television..Shower very nice with rain shower head. Near to a Tesco express, and a nandos . Across street from brewery/pub.

A simple hotel, but delivered to expectations. Rooms were somewhat small, but good room solutions that made them very practical. Pleasant service, and we enjoyed ourselves in the area. Recommended for short stays
