Charming little hotel

We loved the eccentric details in all the antiques and collectibles at Limehouse library hotel. Also we loved that the canary warf was a short walk away. However it did take some navigating to get around as London is so big and spread out. The location is quite a ways away from all the tourist spots. The uber ferry was wonderful to use and very scenic as well. Regarding the room, it was lovely and very comfortable.

Below expectations

The pictures on google and those on Instagram are very different to the reality. I can only describe it as going back in time in to your nannas attic. The whole place is full of trinkets, bizzare ornaments, china dolls, random kids toys. It was a conplete senses oberload and not in a good way! The breakfast wasnt great either, very limited and not a great variety.

The hotel itself was beautiful. The staff was friendly and kind, also helpful with questions about the area and honest about things like keeping your cell phone and purse close to you in certain areas. It is a five minute wallk to the closest tube, and if you are not in a rush, its a 10 minute walk to the ferry which is fun to take when you can.

Good and bad!

Overall our stay was good. Check in was pretty awful and took over 45 minutes, they asked us to have a seat twice but weren’t taking in to account who had arrived first, meaning we waited a lot longer than people who had just arrived. They walk you to your room, this meant additional waiting time and should be an optional feature as was not necessary for us. The hotel itself is great, very vibrant and lots to see. However we were disappointed with how bland our room was in comparison. There was very little reference to its namesake and the few props that were on the table were removed whilst we were out. The breakfast was very good, the bar is overpriced (£4 for a can of coke). The service lets this hotel down as the building itself is gorgeous.

A great find

I originally booked the Limehouse Library because it is close to Troxy and it looked nice. It exceeded my expectations, this quirky, well-curated, concept hotel in a gem. Lovely roof terrace, cosy bar and lots of little spaces to explore. The spa is an added bonus especially as I had the sauna to myself. I will definitely return

A beautifully decorated hotel, the staff were friendly and helpful also and the restaurant was well decorated and served nice food. A main draw back was the shower in my room. The temperature of the hot water was too hot and I ended up getting burnt :( .I would not stay here again due to this reason.

Everything was fine although there was some sort of noisy air conditioning unit outside my room on the mezzanine level - couldn't actually see out the window so I'm not sure what it is. Did wake me up a bit. Lovely hotel apart from that.
