Unique, quirky boutique hotel in East End London. A bit off the beaten path and not in the fanciest neighbourhood, but it's safe and friendly and the Limehouse DLR station is a short walk away which quickly connects you to the heart of the city. The hotel restaurant is excellent, or you can walk down along the canals to some fantastic restaurants by the Thames, or enjoy a pint in one of the many local pubs. If you are looking for something a little different in London, I would highly recommend.
