Montcalm Brewery, London City

Good size room. Friendly staff. Complimentary water around hotel.

Location was super, in between 3 metro stations, all within 10 minutes walk. Rather quiet district at night, people don't yell at the street, that's great. Even when the hotel was hosting a party in the inner yard Friday night, you couldn't hear any noise in the room. Welcoming, very polite personnel, fancy lobby. I'd say, the folks took extra effort with room cleaning, which was not necessarily what we, as guests, wanted, but the effort to make the bed on daily basis was remarkable. Air conditioning was operating well. All necessary accessories were in place: cups, kettle, slippers, hair dryer, plenty of sockets, there was even an ironing board and safe. Comfy large bed.

I booked the Wow suite for the weekend, to celebrate my husbands birthday in London. The name certainly is apt. It's what you say when you enter the suite ! It was beautiful. WOW. Bathroom was a surprise. Beautiful too. Huge bath with spa type shower over it. I didn't realise there was a glass wall separating it from the bedroom, however there is an electric blind for privacy ;-). Staff had put balloons on the bed and there was bubbles and sweet treats waiting too. A lovely touch. Bed was super comfy and environment was pretty quiet. Every member of staff we encountered were super friendly. There was a good choice at breakfast. We didn't have any other meals there as we spent most of the time in central Central London. Hotel was a few minutes walk from Moorgate. Easy to find. We've stayed before, 7yrs ago on our last visit to London and the standards haven't slipped, however we just had a double room then. That was beautiful back then, hence me re-booking and snapping up the Wow suite when I saw it available. If you're celebrating a special occasion book this room. You won't be disappointed.

This hotel is a gem! Incredibly attentive staff, very professional, and felt like you were receiving 5 star treatment all the time. The hotel itself is gorgeous, and the rooms are nice, and very comfortable! The location is very convenient (not the most charming neighborhood itself, it is more of the financial district from my understanding, but absolutely perfect in terms of walking distance to everything you need (20 minutes walk to Shoreditch and Islington, easy walk to the Thames and other touristic sights etc. - I picked it specifically because the location was so convenient for me). The hotel has a unique charm to it, which is what I was looking for, and seemed to be tough to find in this price range (most other hotels I saw in this price range were quite cookie cutter and boring, or too modern feeling, lacking charm). Definitely recommend staying here! I would absolutely come back when I return to London.

The room was beautiful and exceptionally comfortable with a lovely touch of a little bottle of Fizz for my 60th BD. The porter who showed me to my room was a fabulous chap. The hotel certainly is interesting with all its different wings. I wonder if all the rooms are as wonderful as mine was. I loved being able to open the windows even if only slightly and being granted a late check out was fantastic as I was there to be by myself and relax and that is exactly what I was able to do. The bed was so cosy and very hard to leave. The staff in the restaurant were excellent at a very busy breakfast.
