Breakfast and staff where great, the choice of food at breakfast was great and really fresh. The hotel is defiantly quirky and almost homely feel.

This is a beautiful hotel, with incredibly kind and helpful staff (who went out of their way to look after and interact with our young daughter). The rooms are beautiful, clean, and the breakfast was absolutely amazing. This is a very special hotel with wonderful staff.

What a lovely place this is. The hotel is just lovely. Really clean and well cared for. The staff were great. No parking so we had to park an Uber ride away but not a huge problem once we found the parking garage. Our room was tiny! A bit too small and very hot. It took us ages to get the aircon to work. We couldn’t have the windows open because the aircon units were directly below the window and very noisy. However, we eventually got it working. The room was very clean and the bed was really comfortable, And, the shower was amazing. 😻 Something, not sure what, the kettle we think set off the smoke alarm but we managed to sort it out. A member of staff came directly she heard it but there was nothing she could have done. All in all a very comfortable stay. We’d deffo stay again just not in the same room. Very easy for Canary Wharf and eXcel.

Limehouse Library is an oasis of calm and beauty on Commercial Road. I love it! Lovely themed rooms from George Orwell to mary Seacole and a library and bar which are beautiful places to relax. I am a regular.

We had such a lovely stay at the Limehouse Library Hotel. It is one of the most unique and beautiful hotels we have stayed in. The decor is incredible, full of books, art, antiques, and so many unusual touches that make it feel really special. The whole place has a cosy, elegant, and charming atmosphere. What we loved most was the character of the hotel. It feels thoughtful, creative, and welcoming, with so much attention to detail. It is the kind of place where you notice something new every time you look around. It made our stay feel much more memorable than a standard hotel experience. Our room, designed in the version of Homer, although clean and lovely, these old bones struggled to get up. The room was very clean and tidy. Every nich was cared for. We came away thinking what a hidden treasure it is, and we would definitely stay again. The bottle of wine and letter for our anniversary, was so kind. Not even expected (25 years married). Quite honestly, we loved this place. Hopefully we will be able to afford to come next year.

The room was nice but really warm, the Aircon would only make it hotter. The blinds in the room had slats missing so there was little privacy to the outside world and they didn't bloke any light out. The seal around the shower tray and grout had seen better days. Finally, it took 10 minutes to get served at the bar by a surly member of staff who then took it upon himself to charge me 15% service charge for a bottle of water and a can of coke. Nob. We didn't spend any more money in the hotel after that

Quirky hotel full of paintings and various interesting items. Plenty of choice at breakfast and very attentive staff. Not an area of London that we have stayed in before but it is close to the Limehouse DLR station for getting into central London and there are pubs and places to eat in walking distance.

We only stayed for one night and came by train and on foot. Efficient check in. Great ambiance, room was very good, clean and well designed. Comfortable bed. Went to Canary Wharf for food - lovely walk in (20 minutes).

I accidentally booked the wrong date for my stay — I intended to book for tomorrow, but mistakenly selected today because I made the booking late at night around 11:30pm. I fully understand that the reservation was non-refundable, and I was not asking for a refund, only a one-day date change. I spent over 3 hours communicating with customer service until 2:30am, but the only option offered was to pay an additional £210, bringing the total to £353 for one night without breakfast, which is more than double my original booking. Considering this was just a small, understandable mistake made late at night, this felt extremely unreasonable and showed a lack of flexibility or customer care. I hope management will review this situation and consider a more customer-friendly approach

What a special hotel. Wonderful quirky fun, staff lovely. Charming and unusual. Turkish flavorings but with a big kind universal vision of the world, each room dedicated to another great thinker or artist or teacher. Little doodads everywhere, paintings - not your everyday London hotel. We left feeling very happy and well rested! Good restaurant. Sweet and memorable.

We have wanted to stay here before and we’re pleased we were able to get a reservation at short notice, you are welcomed straight away and left to admire the vast collection of all types of items, and when we were in our room the stimulation of your senses continued! A very enjoyable stay and I’m sure it won’t be our last when we are that side of London!

The decor is DIFFERENT but such a charming place. Very rare to get somewhere so interesting in London. Staff were a delight. Gym could do with some TLC!

We booked to stay at the Limehouse Library for the day after our wedding. We were off to Paris and wanted a nice stop-over before heading off on the Eurostar. Limehouse Library looked great, quirky and something a bit special for the night after our wedding. I had, unbeknownst to my husband, ordered and paid for the Wedding Package (£35) as a surprise for when we arrived. When we arrived and entered the room, I was immediately disappointed. The banner in the room didn't read 'Just Married' as expected, but instead said 'Happy Anniversary'. The banner itself was cheap and tacky, not at all like the banner advertised on the package photo which looked more premium. There were balloons and rose petals, but no prosecco and no chocolate covered strawberries. It felt cheap and thoughtless and greatly disappointing. When we spoke to the staff the next day, it felt like the blame was on us for not raising it immediately with them. It would defeat the point to have them come in a remake the room, and we also had to rush straight out to a dinner reservation so couldn't raise it straight away. They did also mention they couldn't guarantee 'fresh items' - I'm not sure what they meant by this as I'd specifically paid for this package with prosecco and strawberries. The hotel itself was nice, clean, quirky, although the rooms were a bit smaller than I imagined. It was the failure to deliver the wedding package that really let us down and ruined our stay.
