10 Best Cheap Hotels in London, According to Hotels.com | Travel + Leisure

"This sleek retreat, planted right in the middle of London's bustling Financial District, appeals to business and leisure travelers alike. A stone's throw from London's storied attractions, like the Tower of London, and a short walk from the galleries and boutiques in trendy Shoreditch, Dorsett City London boasts over 250 bright and airy rooms and suites. The hotel's understated Asian influences come to life at Shikumen, a contemporary Chinese restaurant that specializes in dim sum and Peking duck, and at Jin Bo Law, the 14th-floor sky bar overlooking London." - Macy Sirmans Macy Sirmans Macy Sirmans is a New York-based freelance storyteller and marketing director for Condé Nast.

I stayed here on a work trip and I really have to say was a fantastic experience. The hotel is beautiful and the staff so welcoming. The rooms spacious and clean and warm. The food in the hotel was really nice and such a great variety. The hardest part was choosing what to eat. Food was also quick which I liked as we were hungry from travelling. Restraunt is also 24 hours which I think although I didn't need it is really handy to have if you are travelling late. Would definitely recommend and hope to be back again soon. 5 stars

4.5/5 Great hotel, just a few nitpicks: The rooms are not big enough to accommodate two single beds unless you are close friends and weren't configured as such when we arrived, the included breakfast menu is limited but my omelettes were good, and the shower door opens outwards so the floor is always soaked after a shower with barely any space to put stuff on the vanity. Otherwise, great staff, comfortable beds and steps away from Aldgate station. Wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

Arrived to check in with a slightly chaotic reception. Several police officers present and a family with buggy u able to enter as key not available for non revolving door. Room comfortable and hotel clean and pleasant. Shower door leaked in both rooms. Plentiful numbers of staff but didn't feel the same welcome I had in a similar standard hotel nearby.

The room was lovely and clean, with a great view. Apart from the rooms, we felt it was lacking. There was no lounge. The club on the top floor is run separately from the hotel, so you have to book a table in advance to get in, the doormen were a bit snobby and impolite. The music is so loud you can hear it from the ground floor. But the rooms seemed to be sound isolated. Point is, on the weekend you’ll find a long row of people in the lobby trying to get into a club. The hotel restaurant’s food (vq) was absolutely terrible. Like, really really really terrible. Really disappointing.

I spent 2 nights in the hotel. The water in the bathroom was cold. The drain of the shower was blocked so using the shower created flooding (see picture). On the first night I reported the issue to desk staff but they did not fix the issue so also the second night there was cold water and a flooded shower. In addition 1 out of 3 elevators were out of order so long queues in front of the elevators. Staff on site poorly skilled, the breakfast was below average. Overall experience was disappointing and so the hotel was definitely not worth the room rate.

Professional and friendly stuff. The room was very clean. If you are lucky to get a room on a higher floor then the view will be amazing. They offer 24h menu with a really good price. I can only complain that they provided only one toothbrush and not enough toothpaste(I booked room for two). Location is also great. The tube station is literally 10 meters from the hotel. The bus station is also close. The price for the room was also very competitive. Definitely recommend this hotel.

This was the nicest hotel I’ve ever stayed in. It was clean, had friendly employees, and the room was very modern and stylish. There was a floor-length window that looked over central London. The shower was tiled, with a glass door. The hotel furnished all of your toiletries, except for deodorant. They even included a raid and a toothbrush!! You can’t go wrong staying here. We walked to the Tower of London in about five minutes. It’s a great location for anything you want to do. Aldgate tube station is directly next door.

It was a great service. Happy I stayed there I was pretty central and was able to get around quiet quickly. This hotel is located right next to “Aldgate” and 10 min walk from Liverpool station! You are about 15 min walk from Shortditch. This hotel has a really good rooftop bar, drinks excellent. The breakfast restaurant needs a makeover but the service nice and polite.
