Hoxton Hotel London: Reasonably priced Hotel near Old Street
Satisfaction:
By leeludalas on July 14, 2007
Nice modern hotel in Old Street/Liverpool Street area. Room was 79 pounds/night. Wide flat screen TV, clean, bathroom had walk in shower. No mini bar but the front desks sells sodas, champagne, etc.
Nice location close to Tube- modern appearance and very comfortable.
Finding a room in London is expensive. For some strange reason we found a great offer for this 4 star hotel and although it was the New Year’s Eve we payed 90 euros per night when these days even some hostels with shared bathroom were asking the same money!
The room and the bathroom were clean, big enough, the twin bed was very comfortable and the room had some great colors. There was free wi-fi connection all over the hotel and satellite TV in the room. You can prepare and drink your coffee at the room where they give you for free some different tastes of coffee! The safety box is small but very helpful.
The lobby was nice two, with two fireplaces that were very useful for some relaxing moments. There is also a nice restaurant inside called GRILLE that serves also people that aint customers of the hotel. I checked the menu where I saw normal prices but we never managed to eat there. The staff was very polite and helpful and another small but helpful surprise was that the checkout time was at 12 o’clock.
Every morning they bring you the breakfast at your door (!) and that includes one fruit, one yogurt and one orange juice. When they clean the room they put one milk (for the coffee) at your fridge!
Directions: It is located at CITY, not far from the center. Take the tube to OLD STREET station, get out from exit 3 and walk along the main road for 3’. You’ll see the hotel at your right.
