The property and facilities were lovely. Everything was close by including transport, groceries and other amenities. However I probably would not stay in this suburb again with my young family as the area was not very safe and I felt uncomfortable walking around. It smelled like weed everywhere in that suburb.

We liked our stay at the hotel. The morning and afternoon staff were friendly. I do wish however that it would have been possible to get clean towels in the early evening. There was residual noise from the other patrons on the floor, which was somewhat annoying at night time. The room was clean which was good. I do wish there would have been a way to contact the front desk as there was no phone for that in the room. There are a lot of restaurants near by which is nice.

Absolutely beautiful hotel with fantastic amenities! Our room was so lovely with a super comfy bed & nice sized bathroom. Loved being able to use the gym & laundry facilities while we stayed here. The restaurant inside the hotel was also amazing with their own micro brewery located inside the lower floor of the hotel. The staff was super helpful & accommodating. It was really easy to catch a bus or take the tube into central London from this area too. We really enjoyed our stay here & would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a cool spot to stay while in London! :)

I ended up having to extend my stay due to work, assuming that I had to switch rooms. I went to the front desk and they were fully clued up on my stayover details and just issued me a new key card in minutes without any drama. Hilton, Hyatt has nothing on this. I'm really glad I chose this place, it's awesome! x

I'm so pleased I stumbled on this gem. Cliche as it sounds, Locke is *truly* a home away from home. I was blown away by the cleanliness, amenities and service. I had to store luggage early in the morning to head to work and they accepted it without question. I had to get a parcel delivered, it arrived and I collected it without a hitch. The gym / washing machines / communal spaces are brilliant. Wifi speeds are a dream. The only thing I'd say is the bathrooms, though gorgeously designed, should be much larger - the shower especially. The room having a full set of cutlery, utensils and plates, fridge/freezer and microwave oven saved me a world of hassle. You can bus your way quite easily to central ldn. Only feedback is staff should maybe remind guests that there's a back stairway to the gym / laundry room to avoid them taking the main lifts where the public bar / restaurant faces. 10 / 10 recommend - the staff are lovely too. If you see a good deal, grab it.

Cute spot just a bus ride from Spurs Stadium
Great spot if you're looking to explore North London. Close to Spurs Stadium. Right on High Street. Even went for a run up the road and found a charming, peaceful cemetery. The bar downstairs is top notch. Would stay again.

The dryers in the laundry did not all work. The floor in the shower of room 317 had not been constructed well so that water pooled away from the drain and threatened to flow onto the bathroom floor if the shower door was opened before water was swept to the drain,

Nice but noise made sleep impossible
Room was good (except all the echoey flat surfaces and high concrete ceiling), nice bedding, comfy. Cleanliness was good. But the noise. Oh my god. If you stay here DO NOT stay on lower ground floor. Every noise on the whole floor funnels into you room. The corridors and room shapes are almost designed to make this happen. Slept terribly!

Hi Sam! Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us! I am happy to see you enjoyed the apartment, especially the comfy bed. I appreciate the honesty regarding the noise in the lower ground floor. I am really sorry the transit in the corridors had an effect on your sleep, we will make sure to remind our Housekeeping team the importance of keeping the soundproof doors closed. If you ever would like to come and visit us again, please reach out to reception and we will be more than happy to advise about the other available categories. - Andrea and Kingsland Team

Such a great stay for our first time in England. This Locke location worked for our stay. Close to bus and train stations to get in and out of the city. Cafe and restaurant on premises plus laundry, gym, and rooftop bar made it perfect for our stay. The staff was excellent and helpful in navigating us around the city to explore food and shopping. Can’t wait to stay at another Locke Property soon.
