Really lovely staff, they let me check in slightly early which is extremely kind. The two ladies working in the bar/reception area were super warm and friendly. It was slightly noisy outside, so if you need silence when you sleep it might not be the place for you but it suited me fine! I would definitely come back

One night stay for Theatre trip

We enjoyed our one night stay at The Buxton. It was close to Spitalfields Market which we enjoyed visiting and it was an easy tube ride to the West End for the theatre. It was a good last minute find for a reasonable price in central London and the breakfast was excellent.

The location is great. The hotel is in an old building and it has a lot of charme. The rooms are nice and comfy, even though a little small. As the building is old, there is no elevator. Service is very good and accommodating. We liked the breakfast very much and their coffee machine is excellent. They even had alternative milk (oat). We'd definitely come back.

Lovely place

Loved our stay here. Perfect location. Everyone working there was so nice and the service was great. The breakfast in the morning was delicious and a great start to the day. The room was small as expected but it was all we needed and at a great price and the roof garden was a lovely place to have a little sit for a bit. We were telling some friends about it and discovered they'd stayed there recently too and had the same thoughts!!

Gloria

Disliked: Staff & service
Misleading advertising that the property was pet friendly. That is why I booked this hotel. Upon arriving I was told NO, only the restaurant was. I tried to explain that it was on their website and on Expedia and that I relied on that, but they kept arguing that that was not the case. I don’t think that they know what they are talking about. Very disappointing to say the least. False advertising can be taken to court.
