Room was very clean, quiet but quite compact for a superior room. Mugs in the room and at breakfast would be better than the very small tea cups. Breakfast had a good selection, would have liked some granola or muesli. Overall a quirky place to stay, would stay again.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at the Limehouse Library Hotel. The atmosphere was charming, the staff were incredibly welcoming, and everything felt thoughtfully curated. Staying in the Charles Darwin room was a real highlight such a unique and memorable experience. The room was beautifully designed, very comfortable, and full of character. It made the whole visit feel extra special. Overall, it was a fantastic stay and we would happily return. Highly recommended!

Nice quirky hotel with a difference. Good location. Very clean and everything was provided. Had some nice bar areas, it's just a shame they were such a rip off or we would have used them more. Fine I expect to pay £8 a pint in a london hotel bar but £2 service charge just to pour 2 pints is ridiculous. No wonder they were empty!!!

Overall great first visit to the hotel. The staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel theme was fun and quirky. There were so many little hidden gems I did not have time to explore. My room was just right. Clean, spacious and had the amenities I needed. Again, the theme of each room was a nice touch. I will stay here again on my next visit.

Qwerky hotel, and the rooms are nicely decorated. However, I was unfortunate enough to have the DLR running every minute or so, less than 10m from my bed. This totally rules out sleeping except between about 1am and 5am. And just a note on the spa. Telling guests that they had to book spa treatments at least 24 hours before arrival AFTER they have arrived kind of rules that out as well. Maybe mention it in the pre-arival email. Speaking of which - you might also consider the tone of this email. Threatening guests with forfeiting their entire credit card block if they, “act against our policies” (whatever they are) is perhaps not the most welcoming thing you can do. What exactly does this mean? Checking out 5 minutes late? Not leaving the bed made up?? Probably won’t stay here again.

A really quirky hotel which was enjoyable to stay in. It was like being in a living library. The staff were very attentive and seemed genuinely pleased that I was there as a guest. The room was clean and interesting, but a little cramped. Being a man of a certain age, I need the bathroom during the night and there was very little space to get out of the bed easily whilst semi conscious 😂 the location was handy next to the DLR but a little far out of town.
