Limehouse Library Hotel

Limehouse Library Hotel

8/10 Good
"A very well run and quite quirky hotel (decoratively). Rooms well laid out. Staff very helpful. I also agree, very nice breakfast and good value for London. Showers very powerful and hot, but not a very practical wall fitting (ie: water shot all over the place), easy to remedy I'm sure. Only slight concern was the railway noise. Earplugs may be needed if you're a light sleeper. All in all though, I enjoyed the hotel."

"I checked in online to make it easier and more streamlined but when I got there I had to do it again. What was the point? The hotel is great, looks the part but there is no aircon, the bed was too soft (if your sharing a bed, if your partner moves, you move), pillows were very thin. I think some minor things need to be done to make it a 5/5 but it was clean, staff friendly. Used to pool, clean with some beautiful views."
