“James at the front desk was super friendly and helpful! A great welcome to the hotel. We chose a room overlooking the trains which my kid loved and kept them entertained. Bed was huge and the room was spotless. It was compact but well thought out so there was space for everything. Great location - a short walk to Liverpool street, Spitalfields etc. Close to Sainburys Local & Tesco Express.”

“Super CitizenM Shoreditch! My wife and I were having a fabulous time in Central London and wanted to extend our stay, so having stayed previously at the 3 London CitizenM hotels we decided to treat ourselves and stay an extra night! The room and vibe were perfect as we had previously experienced. It was noticeable that in the room, TV content had been significantly reduced, simply the ability to watch a film was disappointing, but not a deal breaker! Staff are always so kind and engaging, plus the ambience of a CitizenM hotel is certainly something to experience!”

“Good hotel. For London, fairly good value for the price. Rooms are modern and comfortable. Not a ton of room, but they make efficient use of space. Also love the shower! Perfect water pressure and space . That color changing nightlight was also a nice touch. Only two major critiques. The iPad that controls lights, media, and temperature didn't work 100%, especially for temperature. Think the software froze and it got stuck at a higher temperature. Not unpleasant, but not ideal. Also, the hotel has three elevators but one was offline at the time for modernization. Stayed for the May Bank Holiday and a second elevator broke early that Saturday morning (and got stuck inside it for a while) and it took until late Sunday to fix it. Meant there was only one working elevator for a pretty sizeable hotel. Not the worst, but situation could've been better.”

“I can’t say enough great things about this hotel. The rooms are incredibly well thought out and everything just works and while they are compact they are smartly designed so they don’t feel cramped at all. The bed was very comfortable. The shower was amazing, with a large rectangular rain shower head, good water pressure and good water temperature (which has been an issue at some hotels I’ve stayed at recently). The iPad that allows you to control the room works flawlessly and has a lot of cool lighting features. The blinds are very effective at blocking out the sun so it’s easy to sleep in. The staff were friendly at check in and at the bar, which is a very pleasant space. The location is very good and a pretty easy walk to Liverpool street station if you want to get into another part of the city easily. Parking at the nearby EuroPark was 32 pounds for 24 hours.”

“Decent location, decent room, the iPad was a bit finicky to control the tv. Comfy mattress, slept pretty well, quiet too. Check-in was ok, my room number didn’t display during self check in, so had to get help from someone. Check-out was super easy. Mostly stayed there because of the Marriott loyalty program ans the price was fine. Oh and cool views (level 7)”

“Absolutely fantastic stay from start to finish. I called ahead to let the hotel know I’d be arriving very late (around 1am). When I arrived they had me on the list and were fully expecting me. It was such a reassuring and professional touch after a long journey. The hotel itself was spotless and every member of staff I encountered was friendly, welcoming and genuinely helpful. The rooms are a great size, very comfortable, modern and well equipped. I particularly loved the iPad system that controls everything in the room, a really nice feature that adds to the overall experience. Breakfast was fantastic with a great selection of food and having the restaurant open 24/7 is incredibly convenient, especially for business travellers or those arriving at unusual hours. I’ve been travelling to London for business for many years and have stayed in a variety of hotels, but after this experience I won’t stay anywhere else. A special mention goes to a lovely lady working behind the bar, who I believe may have been called Ola. After a 17 hour day, her kindness, warm smile and friendly conversation genuinely lifted my spirits. She was an absolute credit to the hotel and made an already excellent stay even more memorable. Wonderful place to stay. Highly recommended.”
