"We booked to stay at the Limehouse Library for the day after our wedding. We were off to Paris and wanted a nice stop-over before heading off on the Eurostar. Limehouse Library looked great, quirky and something a bit special for the night after our wedding. I had, unbeknownst to my husband, ordered and paid for the Wedding Package (£35) as a surprise for when we arrived. When we arrived and entered the room, I was immediately disappointed. The banner in the room didn't read 'Just Married' as expected, but instead said 'Happy Anniversary'. The banner itself was cheap and tacky, not at all like the banner advertised on the package photo which looked more premium. There were balloons and rose petals, but no prosecco and no chocolate covered strawberries. It felt cheap and thoughtless and greatly disappointing. When we spoke to the staff the next day, it felt like the blame was on us for not raising it immediately with them. It would defeat the point to have them come in a remake the room, and we also had to rush straight out to a dinner reservation so couldn't raise it straight away. They did also mention they couldn't guarantee 'fresh items' - I'm not sure what they meant by this as I'd specifically paid for this package with prosecco and strawberries. The hotel itself was nice, clean, quirky, although the rooms were a bit smaller than I imagined. It was the failure to deliver the wedding package that really let us down and ruined our stay. "

"Okay so this place is expensive so you would think it will be upmarket - its not. The ONLY thing you are paying for is the location of tower bridge. The building looks like a concrete tower block of old run down flats and the rooms are dark dingy, old fashioned and tired. Most rooms are facing out the back so no actual view of the bridge. The shower doesnt get hot, there is mould in every crack. If you go for the usual double room, dont take any form as suitcase as there is physically no where to put them! They will be in your only narrow walk-space for all your trip. We also got randomly evacuated for hours AND there are horrendously loud building works going on currently that they dont warn you about until check in. Im sad I paid the amount I did for a dark dated room, should have gone premier inn. "

"Really great stay."

"Staff were polite friendly and professional. I was disappointed there were no bathrobes. For a five star hotel also disappointed that they use those small cartons of milk, I would have expected a bottle or carton in the fridge. Drinks expensive."

"The staff was amazingly kind and friendly. Very convenient to the tube- Bethnal Green. I will return!"

"The location is great! You can get the cable car right to the property which is brilliant. The view of the water was my favourite part especially sitting by the window for breakfast,which was a fantastic buffet. The room was very small and so was the shower,and theres no tv but i didnt mind this. My only problem was lack of fresh air in the room as the window doesnt open at all."

"Parking was safe but very tight spots, breakfast was average 🤔not the best "

"Staff were above and beyond their responsibilities especially on reception. Bavna deserves special mention. Food in the dining room was superb and we loved the self serve in reception. Everything was clean and welcoming, thank you for making our stay a very happy visit. "

"It was okay."
