I had a very pleasant stay in the most remarkable hotel. This is a really special one and I'll gladly stay here again. Quiet and relaxing atmosphere and so much to look at and take in. All those details.. I'm impressed. …

- Rooms are too small to even fit two beds in them.- Toilets are outragesly dirty and therefore unuseable.- Temperatures are way to high and rooms get too warm to stay in them (windows are unable to be opened cmpletely and way too small to refresh the air in any room).- Door handles brake apart upon touching them and the wallplugs are either without electricity or break off the walls entirely.Overall just awful.

Stayed here for one night when we went to the O2 arena. Only 5 minutes walk from the DLR. Easy to get to the O2 on tube and DLR from here. …

A little oasis on the Commercial Road, this hotel was a delightful surprise. Pleasing decor quite different from the usual hotel, with a fascinating collection of objet d’art, pretty rugs, comfy beds. Staff are friendly and helpful. I wanted to move in and live there!

absolutely AMAZING place to stay, i’m definitely not lying right now. beds was so silent and didn’t feel like a torture rack made for the romans in BC (before christ). it was so private there (had a random family under me effin bunk bed). The food compares to HMP handsworth prison (the nicest hotel in Italy) Thank you guys will (NOT) be coming back soon! ❤️

Awful hotel, stupidly overpriced. Rooms are very small, my room was simply a mattress on the floor!!!!! Avoid this place 100%. ||They put a £1 service charge on drinks so a pint of lager cost £9.||Staff are friendly but overall it’s one of the worst hotels I’ve ever stayed in.

A fantastic experience in a quirky, fun environment!||The spa was very enjoyable and the rooftop bar charming.||We liked the themed bedrooms and the customer service was second to none.||I would thoroughly recommend the hotel to anyone looking for first class customer service at a reasonable price.

The Limehouse Library Hotel is located on a very busy street with a lot of traffic, but you don't notice that in the building itself because it is apparently very well soundproofed. …
