The Corner London City in Tower Hamlets

We had an amazing culinary experience thanks to the marvellous skills of Chef Marian and Camelia. The burger and chicken supreme in mushroom sauce were absolutely delicious.

excellent breakfast with many options. The food on the hotel menu is of very good quality and very tasty. The rooms and the bed are very comfortable. Coffee and tea on all floors. A very pleasant atmosphere in the restaurant where you can have dinner and drinks.

Our trip to London to see friends and a show was not deterred by industrial action, strikes and a complete and utter failure of our government to even discuss pay and other issues. We took the coach instead of the train. It turns out this is the second ‘repurposed’ building to open as a Hotel in London that I’ve stayed in and been in in its previous life. I did some IT training in an office upstairs. Our room for this trip was, unlucky for some, number 013. A ground floor ‘funky’ room with high ceilings and a large street facing window overlooking a church hostel. It being one of the coldest days of the year, the room was cold. Sadly, it remained that way until about the time we got out of bed. The aircon/heater struggled all night. The bed was great. Very comfy and the duvet nice and warm. The bathroom was one of those pod/portacabin looking things, with a sliding door which was more for show than function. The shower was lovely and hot. Towels clean and fresh. Not sure I got the ‘mood lighting’ lamp, made out of repurposed garden hose pipe. The staff we interacted with were polite and helpful, the bar area comfortable to be in. The decor of the room wasn’t worth what they sold it at. We’d get more comfort out of a Premier Inn.
