An amazing property that is a hidden secret nestled in the East End. It truly is like walking into another era. I really didn’t want to post anything as I wanted this property to remain unknown from the rest of the world. The staff is exceptional with wonderful facilities, such as the restaurant with beautiful food and decor. This property is completely unique and demands a clientele who will respect this. The only negative it is not very conveniently placed in terms of transportation.

Not Usually One for Negative Reviews Stayed here after a cancelled flight. Lovely building, but the service didn’t reflect it. When I questioned the £100 deposit (more than at top hotels I’ve stayed in), the staff’s response was flippant — “in case of damages” — said loudly in front of guests. It was the tone, not the policy. Room was basic, but fair given what I booked. Just no warmth or welcome. Felt like the staff saw themselves as the bougie guests, and I was the one being judged. Hospitality starts with humility.

The entrance lobby is totally unique. Was looking forward to a "themed" room only to discover it was themed with a character which I don't approve of, so surrounded by reminders during my stay. Not given option to change. Bed was comfortable, shower ok (strange fixed narrow head, so not easy to negotiate if you didn’t want to wash your hair. Room not particularly large, considering it was supposed to be a "deluxe". I didn’t have breakfast, so can't comment on that. Not somewhere I would stay again, I'm sorry to say, as it didn’t meet expectations.

This is such a cute little place close to transport. I didn’t want to be in the city center, but close enough to see everything. The breakfast was the best! Get room toward the front of you don’t lie the ambient noise of the train. The rooftop garden was gorgeous. I’d stay here again for sure

Curious but clean

Lovely cost-effective hotel near City/Canary Wharf. Slightly bizarre public areas full of stuffed toys, prams, garden ornaments etc which is a bit off-putting.

The Limehouse Library is a beautiful hotel, a lot of care and love went into the amazing design. Staff also amazing, very helpful and pleasant. And a truly great hotel breakfast. The location is not necessarily convenient for everyone but in fact the Docklands Light Rail taking you quickly to Bank station is a short walk away. If this were in Central London I shudder to think what it would cost. So, great hotel, tremendous value.

Charming little hotel

We loved the eccentric details in all the antiques and collectibles at Limehouse library hotel. Also we loved that the canary warf was a short walk away. However it did take some navigating to get around as London is so big and spread out. The location is quite a ways away from all the tourist spots. The uber ferry was wonderful to use and very scenic as well. Regarding the room, it was lovely and very comfortable.
