Town Hall Hotel Apartments

If you have business in the City in London, it's hard to beat this hotel. It is not on the well-traveled path, however, and if you are not comfortable in one of London's largely immigrant communities, it may not be for you. But look beyond that, and you will be treated to a hotel experience that usually comes with a much stiffer price. The kicker is the restaurant, which is absolutely superb. The other end of Bethnal Green Road is already home to pricey bistros and pretty people. With the quality of the staff, the service and the food, you should give the Town Hall a serious look. And if you go, ask them to show you round the original council chambers. This is a quality remodel of a listed historic building.

I stayed at the Town Hall Hotel & Apartments in the Bethnal Green area of London in September 2011. While the surrounding neighborhood is noticeably rundown and low-end, the hotel itself is completely the opposite. This renovated town hall has a very elegant look to it. The 1 bedroom apartment in which I stayed was very up to date and bright. Everything was very comfortable, particularly the huge bathtub. The apartments come with kitchens, complete with stove, oven, dishwasher, microwave, and sink. The spacious bathroom had a very large bathtub with shower, and a washer/dryer combo. The room's come with a safe to protect valuables, and each night we'd return to our cleaned room where truffles were waiting for us. The hotel is about a 5 minute walk to the Bethnal Green underground stop on the Central Line. The nearest major London attraction is St. Paul's Cathedral which is three or four stops away. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The concierge, Pablo, assisted us in making sure a taxi was available at 4:30am to go to the St. Pancras station to take the Eurorail to Paris for the day. At the end of our stay Pablo assisted us in printing out our boarding passes for quick check-in at the airport. They did charge us 75 pounds per day for an extra bed, which I felt was pricey. But overall it was a pleasant experience, and I would stay there again. Through Orbitz the evening rate was a very affordable $150, which is amazing for a place right in London with these sort of amenities. The hotel has a very posh restaurant and bar called Viajante (traveler), as well as more comfortable dining room.

Great, modern room. Convenient to tube. Excellent service. Highly recommend.

L'établissement est récent, moderne, offre une infrastructure digne d'un 5 étoiles. Les chambres sont spacieuses et décorées avec goût. Le room service efficace, personnel de l'hôtel génial. Le seul bémol réside dans le quartier dans lequel l'hôtel est situé, quartier qui est sombre, sale, beaucoup de SDF, etc. Le prix de l'hôtel est un peu plus bas que ses homologues 5 étoiles situés dans des quartiers moins glauques. Si ce facteur n'est pas un problème, on peut profiter d'une prestation très bonne pour un prix acceptable. Station de métro située à environ 10 minutes à pied, compter 25 minutes de métro pour arriver au centre de Londres (Oxford street).

Excellent hotel with very helpful staff and great facilities - trendy East End without being too Shoreditch cool. Location in Bethnal Green won't suit everybody but it's only a few minutes from the Tube.

The hotel was minutes from the train station. When we arrived a nice guy by the name of [...] helped my husband and I. He showed us where to go and how to get there. The room itself was great. It was an apartment fully stocked with dishes, gourmet coffee, milk for tea, even washer and dryer. The decor was nicely done and the bed was very comfortable. The amenities were very nice. The gym is very modern with the latest equiptment and the pool was a nice touch. [...] was the other guy at the reception desk. He too was very helpful. All in all the staff as a whole was friendly . The hotel itself was amazing. We will definitely go back and I highly recommend to everyone.

Gorgeous rooms, very relaxing. Reception staff rather abrasive and breakfast hall far too small to accommodate reasonable number of guests Generally very positive

everything was in order and clean exactly like in the pictures

Nice equipped apartment

I stayed for a weekend after a long trip in one of the Executive Studios. The studio had two levels, loft style, with the bedroom upstairs! It also had a small kitchen unit with every mod con you could desire, including a dishwasher. Dishes, pots, a kettle and even an espresso machine were provided and everything was immaculately clean. The bathroom was spacious with a wonderfully big bathtub, shower and handheld shower head and to my surprise, a washer dryer in a cupboard! There also was a 2 person dining area and the living area had a work desk as well as a couch and a flat screen TV. The bed was very comfortable and a Dream machine with I-pod dock as well as a small wall mounted TV were provided. The staff was extremely friendly and very helpful and any requests were met with a smile. I can only recommend this place and I would definitely stay again. The only disappointment was, that I did not get to eat in their restaurant, Viajante, even though the staff did try to get me in. Their bar, however, more than made up for it!
