Islington Inn

Cheap. Convenient. Bluemoon

Hotellet virker MEGET brugt. Slidt. Gammeldags og bare slidt.

Absolutely stank of smoke and bad plumbing. We went to politely ask to change rooms and let them know about the smoke and he seemed annoyed and told us the smell was coming from the street. This wasn’t true as the street was empty and there were cigarette butts on the window sill. We weren’t able to change rooms. Mentioned it again in the morning to a different man at the desk and he just glared at us, no apology or offer of a refund / partial refund. The staff were really rude right from the start, apart from the cleaner who we passed in the hall - she was very smiley and friendly. We then tried to get a refund through Expedia but they couldn’t get through to the hotel to authorise it. I think this is the first time I have ever left a bad review.

Comfortable, clean room and very tidy bathroom. Perfect for overnight or short stay in the area

did the job for a couple of nights sleep at a reasonable price

Room itself was clean and adequate but was unable to adjust radiator and tv remote was worn making the tv difficult to use. Corridors and stair carpets were shabby and needed replacing

First impressions, the building looks nice outside and reception area is pleasant. Check in was super simple, i got my key straight away with no fuss. The receptionist was very polite and well dressed. Unfortunately, the positives end there. The room was as i expected for the price, basic with a double bed and tea tray. Really old fashioned and in dire need of an update but fresh sheets and a reasonabley comfy bed. However, as soon as i let myself in to the room i was hit with the strongest smell of cigarettes. Totally overpowering and inescapable. I left the window wide open for a few hours but was afraid it might attract an intruder given it led right on to a busy street. I had a prior commitment to make so i was unable to change hotels and had to go out. When i checked out and got home the next day i had to wash every item i had with me as it reeked of cigarette smoke, i could even smell it on myself. So gross. This place is fine is you have low expectations and just need a place to put your head down for the night. I cant fault the staff or the location but....

Friendly, helpful staff.

It was close to central London, price was good and ideal for an over night stay.

Friendly, extremely handy for me. Nothing fancy, small room well situated. Would definitely stay again

The room was absolutely not as advertised on Hotels.com, much smaller, much less well appointed. Photos were lies. No sockets near the bed, which was quite an achievement in such a miniscule space. Old tired decor, old tired mattress. Bathroom main light didn't work, felt bad having to wake the night staff to get buzzed in as there is no unaided access even with a key. Tiny room, old paint, old mattress, guilt, everything smelling of strange cleaning products: much more like visiting grandparents than staying in a hotel that cost money.

Nice old building that was clean

Overall everything okay. Good for a short stay.

If the room had been clean and didn't smell of old cigarette smoke then it would of been okay enough to stay for the full duration I paid for but it wasn't Upon entering the room I was greeted with the smell of damp and old cigarette smoke, when I looked around the room I found blood stains on the dial of the radiator, the wallpaper was falling off the wall and there was damp and mold around the shower in the bathroom. I also found stains all over the floor, the TV remote did not work and I could hear every sound coming from both rooms next to mine and in the corridor The only saving grace was the blackout curtains which allowed me to catch up on some sleep after not being able to all night

Friendly staff, clean environment, 24hr reception. Basic rooms. Wifi, t.v. tea & coffee. Etc. Very good location. Room only no ither facilities at this hotel. Daily house keeping. Fresh towels and bedding.

This is a good price for a very well situated accomodation. Very small room, but has all you need. Good shower. Very thin walls, could hear person next door on his phone, and the person he was speaking to, room was very hot. Cleaner was bashing about with a hoover at 8.45 am outside in corridor and in room next door. Seemed a bit unnecessary given check out at 11 and check in at 12. Would stay again as location good for me. Does the job. Do t expect luxury, but it doesn’t offer it.

Bruyant et lit pas confortable

I booked for one night, I rang to let them know what time I'd be arriving to check it was ok. I was told the desk was manned 247. When I arrived no one was there and no one was answering the phone either. It was late, I was exhausted and all I needed was somewhere safe to rest. I was stood outside for 20ish mins, football fans were waiting to get in too. I was the only woman, on my own, on the street not knowing. There was no sign with information as to where he had gone. (He had gone to the shops). The room was fine enough.

Rooms are small and bathrooms are smaller but if you just need somewhere to put your head down for the night, this will do quite nicely. I used it twice this summer when going to concerts and it did the job perfectly.

Syv dage på Islington Inn er OK, når man kun skal sove der. Der er rent, men det er nedslidt! TV'et var svært at benytte og hang lidt usikkert på væggen. Forbedringer: sengelampe/natbord til hver seng ville være dejligt, en enkelt stol også... Knage til ophæng af håndklæder i badeværele og knage bag dør til ophæng af fx overtøj ville være nyttigt. 24 timers betjening, venlig, men meget tavs.....
