Limehouse Library Hotel Reviews

Very clean and well maintained hotel. Turkish style decoration. Spacious room. Good value for money.

good to stay

The service was extremely bad. I wrote two names when booking the hotel, but when I arrived at the hotel front desk in the afternoon, I only found one guest's name. I tried to fix it for a long time, but the attitude was very bad. There was no minimum respect and trust. I had to call Ctrip to confirm. Fortunately, Ctrip is a 24-hour service, otherwise I would not be able to get in.

Beautiful hotel, unique, very clean and pleasant. With oriental flair, family atmosphere. All the staff are very friendly, accommodating, thank you very much! The massage is organized in no time, trained physiotherapist - very, very good! Each room has a historical story and was decorated based on this theme. The standard is very high! Everything is of superb quality; from the cotton swabs to the bathrobe, everything is top class! In the room there is a coffee machine and kettle with good tea and tasty coffee. I have never experienced anything so clean, everything is perfectly clean!! The surroundings are nothing special, but the bus station is about 3m from the hotel and buses run every 2-3 minutes, so it's not a problem at all. We really, absolutely enjoyed it! We preferred to enjoy the evenings walking to London in the foyer with tea, chess and in the reading corner of the hotel. The hotel is something special, there are antiques and valuable souvenirs from all over the world everywhere. The terrace on the 1st floor with a bar, a green oasis as a winter garden and an open garden is particularly beautiful. Unfortunately I didn't eat anything, but they offer a combination of Turkish and English cuisine. So, I was thrilled, a special experience!!

This hotel is very good. It was remodeled from a library. The equipment is new, clean, Turkish-style, and cost-effective. It is much cheaper than those in the urban area. The waiters are also nice and have a good chat! The room has a lot of styles, the decoration is good, and a lot of wood is used. It is said that it was imported from Turkey.

The room is clean, but the single room is a bit small. But the bedding is relatively comfortable and the breakfast is great! The layout of the public areas is very unique! I will choose here again next time I go~

Attentive service, warm environment and good environment

Different from your mainstream hotel. Beautifully decorated, a library, each room has a different literary theme. Ours was Virginia Woolf. Amazing bar and communal area.

At initial checkin, I couldn’t find my ID. The gentleman at the reception was very patient with me. He even offered us an upgrade, with a choice of two different rooms. The hotel was very unique, quirky with each room decorated differently. The rooms were comfortable and clean and the hotel was very quiet, apart from the sounds from the DLR trains. They didn’t bother us though. We have already booked this hotel when we come back to London in September.

My 2.5 year-old and I visited this relatively new, cosy and delightfully quirky hotel last night as part of a weekly respite allowance we currently receive from a noisy development near us in South London. I mention this as we are Londoners, so know the area we stayed in well and were excited to try this new venue. Some previous reviewers have mentioned the decor of knick-knacks and toys as somehow 'odd' or 'creepy' though myself and my daughter found them fascinating and delightful - she was even kindly allowed to ride on a wooden rocking horse in the reception, play with some of the plastic dolls adorning the tables and leave her own 'deposit' of two coloured blocks behind the receiption to be returned to her (along with a chocolate coin) on our departure. The hotel seemed very quiet in the communal areas and we didn't see any other guests for the entirety of our stay, though this suited us well as peace and quiet is exactly what we are looking for. I hope that this hotel decides to ramp up its liveliness in its bar, terrace and event spaces as I would happily visit as a londoner for lunch or an evening out, although it doesn't seem like much is currently happening in these spaces/it is unclear how much they are utilised. I also appreciated the team kindly upgrading our twin room to a larger one free of charge to fit the toddler cot, a kind consideration that made our stay more pleasurable. Based on this stay, I'd stay again.

This property was so cute and so cozy. The staff were so sweet and attentive and very helpful. Would definitely stay here again.

Quirky hotel.Rooms were great , every one individually themed towards an author. Hate to have to do the dusting ! Very friendly staff. Just a really great place to stay . Perfect location for our break. O2 and Canary Wharf very easy to get to.

The staff at the Limehouse were top notch. Helped us with our luggage to our room in the old building, showed us around to the sauna area, and helped us order food for delivery at their sister restaurant, which was delicious. Room was beautiful too, the decorations around the common areas were so cute. For transportation into the central area, it was very convenient. There’s a bus stop right outside that took you downtown, and if you walk about 8 minutes you can catch the DLR to Tower Gateway or Bank which has connections to many Tube lines.

I liked the quirkiness of the place, with all the different ornaments placed around the hotel, and the stunning entrance hallway 👍
