"Every detail here leans into its hip persona, from the Tracey Emin neon artwork over the desk spelling out “I Fell In Love Here” to in‑room mini Smeg fridges and record players. Even the tiny Pod Rooms, lined with three-wall padded headboards and fitted with Marshall amps, manage to feel cool rather than cramped. Social life centers on Sophie’s, the rooftop bar that’s almost always packed, and the lively lobby bar, which also hosts live entertainment. The energy is relentless and fun, making it a great option if you’re joining the party—but anyone prioritizing a peaceful night’s sleep should probably look elsewhere." - Ciara McQuillan, Matt Charlton
