City Hotel - London

All very nice. Excellent typical English breakfast. Keep this high standard and I will come back.

The hotel is conveniently situated just next to Exit 3 of the Algate East Tube station. I had a very pleasant stay in the City Hotel. The price is also very reasonable. The hot water flask was not so clean though. This is the only one thing I think the hotel can improve on. I like the idea of retaining the towel if it is still clean for use.

The hotel is adequate for short visit to London. It is well connected to the City both by bus and metro.

Very clean and fair hotell. The location could be better and i personally had a little problem with the outside noise. Everything else was perfect.

Just some problem with bathroom towel (less than room guest). The hotel has a great value for money. Ideal for short stay in london

Room size above expectations and fully equipped with all you need, including a fridge. Staff was helpful and polite. Excellent location very close to tube station and Liverpool Street station for easy connections to Stansted airport. I would definitely go back to this hotel.

Thoroughly enjoyed my stay there. We had a quadruple room, which was massive. The room was complete with fridge, plasma tv, clean en-suite bathroom, sofa, fan (useful for the summer heat) etc. There are also spacious lifts for luggage. Very close to Aldgate East tube station, but given there are so many exits for the tube station, we were easily lost in the area. Nevertheless, value for money! Will stay there again.

Albergo comodo per la vicinanza della metro (50 mt) e la professionalità del personale. Camera adeguata dopo richiesta di cambio.

Des voisins de chambre un peu bruillant et un environnement très "glauque" contrebalance une bonne impression générale et l'intéret d'un hôtel très proche de la tour de Londres

On arrival the staff at reception were very welcoming and friendly.we were made to feel at home and the staff were very helpful and provided you with any requests you had.i would defo return to this hotel again.

We had a beautiful stay at the City Hotel. I'll recomend it for your next trip in London. The underground it's very close and if you come from Stanstead airport by train or by bus, Liverpool Street Station is a 5 minutes walk.

Rooms were great. the morning shift was competent, curteous and excellent. the evening/late shift was not as enthusiastic, but i guess that is expected of a late shift crew.

We had two rooms: in one of them there was a beautiful Parquet, but in the other there was an aweful fitted carpet. and in the second one there was a lot of noise caused by the air conditioning machines.

Bruyant le samedi soir à cause des voisins et chambre donnant sur une rue passante!sinon tres bien pour dormir apres avoir visité toute la journée!systeme de bouilloire avec tasse et café+thé très agréable le matin (évite de prendre le petit dej le matin au restaurant)tres bon rapport qualité prix, ménage réalisé tous les jours. A conseiller pour votre visite a londres, juste à coté du métro.

Why do you Brits use perfume in the rooms, after cleaning? If you're not alergic before, you defenitely become after entering a newly cleand UK hotel room.

Excellent hotel - highly recommended. Close to tube and bus stops nearby so easy to get around the city. There was 2 of us and we got a big room with 2 double beds and a view of the Swiss Re building outside. Very good room for the money. We stayed for two nights (Friday and Saturday) and there was some street noise outside from people leaving the bar downstairs until about 3am. The room had double glazed windows though which helped and we did sleep quite well. But for the location and the price the little bit of street noise was not too off putting. I would stay there again though no problems although if you are a light sleeper and are staying during the weekend you might be wise to bring earplugs! We had breakfast in the hotel one morning. It was a small buffet and cost £10 each. Quite pricey really as theres plenty of places doing the same for less money. The staff also kindly kept our bags in a locked room after we checked out as we had an evening flight and didn't want to carry the bags all day. We flew into Stansted - took the Stansted express train to Liverpool St station. Went to the underground and took the pink line to Aldgate East. From there we followed the footpath down past Burger King and KFC and the hotel is on a side street to the left.

Strange part of town.

Really good quality hotel for cheap price;we were given a room that was early renovated and have LCD monitor tv, cable tv, spaciuos bathroom with tube and shower, and internet wireless connection for just 15pounds per week,that's a good price compared to the price you pay for a single day connection card in Italy. This is a real 3 stars hotel, Italian standards. Just a few staps from the Aldgate East underground station, walking distance from Liverpool Street Station, that's great if you arrive from Stansted Airport with Ryanair flights as we did. The hotel is not within the centre precint, but as you might know, in london you can reach all the destination you need with just some minutes travel using the underground.

Nice clean room on 5th floor. We really got value for the money. The surrounding may look a bit shabby but there were lots of nice Indian restaurants just round the corner. We have only got one negative thing to say.The breakfast is too expensive - on the other hand you may eat elsewhere.

We stayed in London for five days. Our general opinion about the City hotel was very good, especially if you consider value for money and also the position of the hotel, which is very close to the city centre and very-very close to the tube-station (Aldgate east). The room we had was in the second floor and so despite the noisy first impresion we had during our check-in process, due to the bar that is in the ground floor, the room was very quite, with view in the front road. Additionally the room could be considered to be 'huge' if it is compared to other rooms I stayed in 'Bed and Breafast hotels' in London in the past.

Only 10 min walk from Liverpool Street Station

Over all the hotel was very nice, BUT: I stayed in a newly refurbished room in the 6th floor. The room was rather nice. But it had one big drawback that spoiled the whole stay: Every time somebody on the floor turned the faucet on, this made a LOUD noice - which woke me up every morning at about 5 a.m.! Therefore: As long as they did not fix this problem - don't stay there, if you want to get some sleep!

Coming to Liverpool Street Station late at night, this was a perfect location. 15 minutes to walk and there was this nice hotel. Couldn't be much better.

We've been in London for travel. Location of the hotel is quite goos. Very large romm (for London), enough clean and tranquile. For London good report price /quality

We had only a problem. the room of the first night at the first floor was over a pub. We didn't sleep!!! All the rooms at the first floor during the weekend are not quite for the pub, the music and the drunk people around.... the others nights we changed the room and stayed very well. We suggest this hotel, but remember, if you want to sleep, don't reserve rooms at the first floor!! However The hotel is central, wonderful, clean, kindly.

L'hotel si trova nella zona est di londra, al limite della zona 1 della metro, ma con la metro a londra arrivi davvero ovunque, inoltre l'aereoporto di stansted è collegato alla stazione di liverpool street che è nelle vicinanze...una fermata di metro o 15' a piedi. nelle vicinanze ci sono uno starbucks, un burgerking, kfc, un piccolo drug store e diversi ristorantini di cucina indo-pakistana quindi mangiare davvero non è un problema. la stanza dove abbiamo soggiornato era molto ampia, anche il bagno molto grande e la pulizia buona; solo le lenzuola sono state risistemate ma non cambiate nei due giorni che abbiamo dormito. l'accoglienza è stata ottima, ci hanno anche permesso di lasciare i bagagli gratis dopo il nostro check out. davvero ottimissimo rapporto qualità prezzo se confrontato con altri alberghi che allo stesso prezzo, portavano su venere un giudizio peggiore. ci siamo fidati di ciò che veniva riportato da Venere e ci siamo trovati benissimo! COnsigliato!

The hotel was nice with nice staff. We stayed in Triplle rooms and had to ask for extra towels each day, because the rooms were equiped with 2 towels only. The breakfast restaurant was located in a bar room, which did not offer comfortable table and chairs for breakfast - and with long delivery time for the pretty expensive breakfast. But except for this the stay was ok - and pleasant.

Bien situé, juste au début de brick lane (une rue connue pour ces restaurants indiens), le city hotel offre de grandes chambres confortables à des prix très compétitifs pour Londres. Nous avons beaucoup aimé le grand frigo. Certainement un hotel où nous pourrions revenir.

Noisy surroundings.

A localização do hotel é boa, o atendimento da recepção foi satisfatório o quarto não era grande mas atendeu bem as espectativas. Hotel moderno, gostei e in dicaria a outras pessoas

The nearest underground is aldgate east, not aldgate as the map show.

Really a great place! We stayed there for five nights and we had really a good time! Clean and new rooms! Price ok...Yoy should have money on your credit card when you book the room, and you have to pay when you arrive in the hotel...Rooms are free not before 14 pm, so try not to arrive too early!

It looked as though they were in renovation, but it appeared as if they had been renovating it for quite some time. If you're looking for a place to sleep thats close to the metro, its good, but the room itself was a bit dirty, the toilet only flushed when it wanted to, and the employees didn't speak clear english, for a english speaking country. For the price we paid, we expected a bit cleaner place, but we only paid 50 pounds, which is the cheapest we found on venere.com

In East London, very close to Aldsgate tube. WE never had an issue going anywhere. TV was broken for 2 days but was looked at until it was fixed! Room was a 2 bedroom suite with fridge. Yes, the hotel is located on and next to BrickLane which is a 'partying street' at night but that just added to the fun! I will be staying there again.

The hotel was being refurbished, so the public areas were a bit below standards. It is still very close to the business center. Quality/price is OK, but do not expect too much.

Very cheapest and clean hotel. it's very goog to stay here. I think i'll return again. don' ask for a taxi to reception

Very nice place & nice staff! excellent bar/night club just next to the hotel where we have our breakfast in the morning :) and a lot of French tourists inside! If you're going there, I think you won't be disappointed ;)

Even at secon floor hotel rooms are located just above the hotel disco bar that is by the lobby, couldn't sleep till late in the night also because of people shoutting outside the bar, none by the hotel went outside to ask those people to stop. Very incompetent staff and please note it's a four star hotel !!! ask to change me 20 euros in pound because I had an emergency and without debit/credit card... the man at the reception could not!!...like a crime !!!!!! do not go there.. the worst place in London !!!!

Very noisy, you have to ask for a room on the 5th floor, but still noisy (very noisy Indian music in a house opposite of the hotel) Disco in the hotel ground floor noisy disco guests coming or leaving.

Hotel situated 5 min from metro station Algate west, 10-15 min from Tower bridge and Tower of London or Elisabeth's docks. Price does not include breakfast (+£6.50/person). Quadruple room booked ($115 ) but we got a spacious room for 5 with bathroom, fridge and tea/coffee facilities. Very hot in August 2007 and surroundings very noisy with window opened

Comppared to the last hotel we had stayed in in London, I was very pleased with the City Hotel. The room was clean and comfortable. the rate at the weekend was actually lower than I had expected to pay!The area is currently undergoing some re-development, particularly around the Aldgate East tube station but the hotel is very convenient for the tube and for getting around. We only stayed one night as we were attending a concert but I would be happy to book into the hotel again if visiting London for longer.

No mention that the restaurant is closed on Sundays. Wasn't notified that the windows would be surrounded by scaffolding. Room was quite spacious but very dim. Area was very unpleasant.

The room was very nice and a good size. We were very impressed. Only problem was that it lacked air conditioning and the room was quite stuffy. It was close to the metro, but needed to catch 2 different lines to get to centre of london. Ideal for business.

I have stayed in this hotel for about three weeks and suggest it to any one who wants to get a totally acceptable service for a good price. Room service is available every day and is really good. Underground and bus station are very near and there are many restaurants, bars and internet cafe near by. Personnel are very respinsible and helpful and the rooms and hotel is just like you see in pictures.

Stayed in a double room. Which was very nice indeed with two single beds and one double. Just one compliant for one of the parties that was with us, their room was a lot smaller than mine and was quite hot.

A disco/bar was playing very loud music after midnight. I believe it was indeed the hotels own bar.

Nice and clean rooms. Breakfast was fine. The hotel surroundings might not be totally safe. One BIG problem: Fridays and Saturdays the bar underneath, which is part of the hotel, is so LOUD you can't sleep!Very very NOISY!

Lovely hotel and very clean.......just the noise of a night club underneath kept me awake some of the night. Can understand why it was cheap now!!

Noisy disco music saturday night until 4 am Sunday

In english: Our room was a little suite: little entrance, bedroom, bath and a big living room with kitchen. Very delightful! The Hotel surroundings was no very good, especially in the evening... ugly faces... but english ladies seems don't care about it and walking round the neighbourhood. Anyway I'd return to this hotel. ******************************************** In Italiano: La nostra stanza era enorme, una mini suite! Ampio soggiorno e cucina incluse! Il quartiere dove si trova l'hotel non è molto entusiasmante, soprattutto la sera. Brutte facce... ma le ragazze inglesi sembrano non curarsene e girano tranquille anche da sole.

I had a very good stay. I certainly recommend this hotel for a short stay in London since it offers a very good service for a low rate (London standards! :-) ). The fact that it's located so near Aldgate East tube station is a plus because you can get anywhere without walking a great deal. Tower Bridge, Tower of London, St. Paul's Cathedral, British Museum are quite near. If i go back, i will stay here again for sure... if i can get the same rates! :-D

When you arrive at this hotel, you have to pay for the days you are staying in, but anyway, it was a very great deal! the price was good for London and the bedroom was very cleaned and spacious. the only not so good thing in all that was the neighborhood that it seemed a little bit dangerous, but, as we arrived early in the night at the hotel, that was not a problem. and also there was an underground station very very close, about 2 min walking. Very, very good!!!

Good value for money. LOUD Rock club downstairs until 04:30 Saturday / Sunday. Good business overnight. Better internet options should be available e.g. buy 1 hour a day for £2 with facility to log and off until used.

Excellent value for money

For a 3-star hotel, and for the price paid (£85/night for 2), this is a very good choice. For London standards, you can do much worse, and much more expensive. The room was actually surprisingly large and clean. The hotel is very well-kept, even though it is a very old building. It is situated right at the end of Brick Lane, with a great choice of restaurants and lively bars and clubs nearby. And it is next to the City, and relatively well-connected to anywhere in London. Only complaint: the extremely thin walls, and the noisy neigbours who did not let us sleep until 2:30. Overall, recommended for a (relatively) cheap visit to London.

Clean rooms, very close to tube stations and other facilities, but very very loud at night: besides street sirens and alarms, the pub/bar downstairs (which belongs to the Hotel) would play loud music till the early morning.

Le stanze sono spaziose e pulite, anche se non nuovissime. La colazione a buffet è abbondante. La stazione della metropolitana è ha cento metri dall'albergo. Il prezzo è caro, ma nella media degli alberghi di Londra.

Nos hemos llevado una agradable sorpresa. Una habitación con cocina incluida!!! Qué pasada. Desayuno muy guapo en un local anexo muy bonito. Desde luego ha sido lo mejor de nuestro viaje.

Decent hotel, but very noisy! You can easily hear what goes on in other rooms and from the public areas.

Vey noisy at night (Friday and Saturday) but otherwise very good value. Close to Algate East underground.

.

Very good!! Also with a nice night bar to get a drink before going to bed...

Il quartiere non è un granchè e di notte fa un po' paura, le camere son buone, la colazione non è english ma continental anche se abbondante e a buffet, la reception efficente ma frettolosa e non molto disponibile soprattutto con la lingua (mal comune dei londinesi)

The location is not correctly shown on your website and needs to be corrected. There is a great bar attached to the hotel and if you love curries you have a huge choice available to you as the hotel is near the famous brick lane. However, I have scored the services very low purely because the quality of the buffet breakfast is very disappointing for a hotel of this type and this price. The actual breakfast food itself is of inferior quality, clearly very cheap and there never seems to be any variation to what is on offer, though the staff are polite and friendly. If they could do something about the feedbackl the overall stay would be much better value for money and the scores closer to excellent. To my knowledge there are no separate public area offering the usual services e.g. with tv screens would be good for anyone wishing to watch live football without going to a pub), somewhere to work outside of room etc. Also, the number of satelite channels available in the room tv was very restricted. A bit of a disappointment for a room at this price. Finally, venere.com are excellent in that they are quick and efficient and respond back if tehre is a complication with a hotel or on any feedback...unlike many other web based businesses!

Worth the money, discount for online orders via venere.com, perfect service from venere!

It was not clear, if the price you quotet was already charged off from you because I"d to give you my VISA number. After some discussions with the hotel staff, we learned that we had to pay the Hotel directly.This should have been mentioned from you.
