AMTD Dao by Dorsett Hornsey

The hotel entrance is unclear; there are no signs or anything, and it is very hard to find. The receptionist was very unprofessional. She requested my proof of ID. After showing my UK driving license, she questioned my nationality, said that because I’m not British, I can’t use a UK driving license to prove my identity, and requested my passport. That was the first time since I came to the UK that I couldn’t use a driving license to prove my identity. They asked me to pay a £50 deposit, even though I had already paid the hotel's full fees, and refused to give me a receipt showing I had paid the deposit until I requested written confirmation. The room was clean but very small. The whole experience wasn’t worth the money I paid. I’m very unhappy with the stay and will strongly not recommend people book in.

Good hotel with helpful front desk, great view, nice vibe, air con. Needs a bit time to find the place but overall recommended.

5 star rooms. Spotlessly clean. Needs a sign at the entrance. I would change the colour of the receptionist’s uniforms to a red or black.

We were only here for one night, but had a good stay. Excellent location - 20 mins uber from Kings Cross and a nice walk away from Ally Pally. Lots of cool cafes nearby. The hotel itself is a fascinating multi use building, and it’s cool to see it so beautifully reconditioned. The room was very well equipped - it even had a dishwasher and hob, though we didn’t need these. We would happily come back!

Was hard to find as it’s not the same place as it showed on maps, but the rooms were great especially if you are working away as they have coolers and a hob in the rooms, my door handle was broke when I came back at night so couldn’t enter my room which was annoying but they sorted me another room which was huge ! Only thing I wasn’t happy with was that my other rooms door was fixed and left wide open with all my belongings in the next day , I thought that was very irresponsible but other than that was a good experience

Very lovely & nice rooms. Super clean, warm & quiet.  We will definitely come back.

This was an amazing surprise. The building is exquisite inside and out. An architectural gem a listed building. Will definitely come back. Staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful. A delight from start to finish

Very nice
