The Whitechapel

Pleasantly surprised by space in premier single room - just like the picture! The wet room bathroom and sink in the main hotel room didn't bother me as travelling alone, may be an issue if more than one person staying. Whilst expensive it is very good value in context of London hotel prices and what you get for it, cheaper than nearby Holiday Inns etc.. and a bit different. There's a Costa right across the road which was handy and only a 5 minute walk to the Whitechapel tube station. As I needed to be near the Brick Lane area this was ideal, only a 10-15 minute walk to where I needed to be. The area is not very touristy, and I can understand a little daunting but as a female travelling alone I was comfortable so long as you stick to the main, well lit roads which are usually fairly busy. Bed was decent enough and all in all very clean. I didn't have dinner or breakfast there but the restaurant seemed to be busy often which is a good sign. The air-con kept the room nice and cool during a warm spell in London.

A small thing but the lift chimes on each floor - when in a room right across from the lift this means there is frequent chiming throughout the night as people come and go. The area in general is quite noisy but this is to be expected in a busy, London area.

Clean rooms, modern and simple

The bright new building, helpful staff, good location for public transport. Air-conditioned room. Good WiFi.

Room a bit on small side. But not bad, this is not a complaint!

All staff friendly and helpful, room just as needed
