Unique hotel with quaint look but tired with paint chips and dirty ceiling, cracked tiles and dirty corners in shower. Conveniently located close to Uber Boats & DLR. Bed was very comfy. Staff however were apathetic when responding to requests and seemed like they were put off with any request. Took over 8hrs to get our room cleaned, needed to ask twice for towels.

Great little hotel with quirky character

We booked them hotel last minute and was delighted how lovely the hotel was. It was situated a 4 min walk from the tube station in a nice area. Very bubbly and quirky hotel with lovely staff. We had a problem with the air con to which we had to move rooms to a cooler one and the room was smaller but it was ok for me and my son.

Nice hotel with quirky rooms and public areas but let down disappointing service. Arrived at 2.20 and was told “Your room isn’t ready, check in is at 3.” Fair enough but I felt like I’d done something wrong for arriving 40 minutes early. Judging by the other people grumbling in the bar I wasn’t the only one who felt like this. On our second day we got back at 6.45 to find that the room hadn’t been made up. I went to tell reception, no apology and was told that the rooms were cleaned between 2pm and 8pm but she would let housekeeping know. Went back after 15 minutes as there was still no sign, still no apology. I’ve never stayed in a hotel where you don’t get your room cleaned until 8pm! When we checked out we didn’t get thanked or asked if we’d had a nice stay. This is the second time I’ve stayed here and I won’t be going back

Very welcoming

We stayed two nights on leisure trip. Very clean with friendly staff. The room air on was very welcome during the heat wave. We will most likely stay again.

Super quirky hotel, love the multiple nods to its previous incarnation as a public library. Comfy beds, interesting rooms (each inspired by an author). Friendly and helpful staff and excellent breakfast. Sadly didn’t get to try the spa, bar or rooftop bar - hopefully next time!

We stayed at the Limehouse Library Hotel for a week and everything was always clean and the staff was very kind and friendly. I highly recommend staying at this beautiful hotel. The hotel was very uniquely decorated, with beautiful plants, art, and rugs. It was very quiet, we never heard another guest or anything from outside. The room was spacious, with lots of storage. The bed was very comfortable and the shower was good as well. We chose the option of having breakfast included and it did not disappoint. Homemade bread every morning with delicious eggs, sausage, feta, avocado and fruit. The best breakfast I’ve ever had at a hotel. We also ate dinner there one evening and that was also delicious. While it isn’t in the heart of London, I believe its location made for a very quiet stay, which we appreciated. It was located a 7 minute walk from the Limehouse station and a train leaves every few minutes for Bank station, where you can connect with the underground to any part of London. Its location did not add very much additional travel to our day.

The breakfast was excellent. It was a great location to explore parts of London we had not been to before and this could all be done on foot. Also easy access to Mile End Parkrun on the Saturday morning.
