Limehouse Library Hotel

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.

The Limehouse Library Hotel is a unique, and beautifully appointed London hotel. Although the hotel is quite a bit east of London, Central London is easily accessible on the Uber Boats. The decor of the hotel is unique, and amazing. Our room was clean and quiet, and the buffet breakfast was amazing! The staff were helpful and welcoming.

Room could have done with a bedside light and a proper mirror for getting ready! Room wasn’t ready for check in but didn’t have to wait too long.

Very nice breakfast buffet that had some more interesting foods then most and plenty of it all very fresh. The themed rooms and memorabilia make it not your average dull chain hotel

room was clean nothing like that photo, staff were fabulous

Everything was fantastic.

The breakfast choices were plentiful to cater for everyone. The layout was impressive and the food was delicious, well done!

An amazing and very interesting, quirky hotel. Our room was great for what we needed and it was very clean too. Excellent breakfast with lots of choice. Friendly staff who were very helpful

Very very small bedroom. I have never before stayed in a bedroom without a mirror! Had to request pillowsctwice as insufficient on bed.

Room was good, close to the DLR station

Unique atmosphere, super friendly staff.

Great rooms, great staff and the breakfast was amazing!

Room was clean aside from mould around the shower screen which is easy to fix. Room was very warm and air con didn't seem to work. Quirky decor was fab though, so nostalgic, would definitely stay again.

Clean room

Gorgeous and quirky hotel. Room was huge ( Charles Darwin Room). We stayed as attending the O2 for 1 night. Definitely recommend and would book again.

Staff were very friendly and helpful throughout the stay. The hotel and room was very clean, and great location for the O2

Room was quirky (expected) and clean, but no decaf drinks. Restaurant was adequate but with good service. Breakfast wasn’t worth the £20 we paid in advance and was offered at £15 on check-in which was a more realistic price. A good place to stay in East London and we will probably go back but without ordering breakfast.

Amazing property with super helpful staff, really enjoyed it here for a couple of days and will be back.

great hotel ideal location and great location

We loved this hotel. Its quirky, interesting, clean and the staff are lovely.
