“A great short stay option”
+My husband and I come to London each year for a shopping trip, and Rockwell East is now our favourite base. This was our second stay and it was just as good as the first! The accommodation is local to both Aldgate and Tower Bridge Tube stations. Our one-bedroom apartment was spotless, with a comfy bed, snug bedding, great temperature control and a well-equipped kitchen for when we wanted to self-cater. The bathroom had fluffy towels, bathrobes and basic but nice toiletries , everything we needed. A lovely perk this year was the free breakfast: a small but tasty buffet with cooked options, pastries, hams, cheese, fruit juice, tea and coffee. Special thanks to Nas at reception, who recognised us from last year and made us feel genuinely welcome. Rockwell East is clean, comfortable, well-located and great value. Highly recommend!

+The room was awesome with everything we needed to cook at night and do some washing. The bathroom was clean, the bed very comfortable. There was a good range of cooked and cold breakfast options. The young lady providing service at the breakfast area was hard working and very accommodating to any requests. She was busy working all the time at restocking food, drinks and crockery/cutlery. The area was very convenient location to all the sites. We were able to walk by foot, tube or bus depending on what we were visiting.
+No breakfast was served.
+This was a great location and was close to multiple train stations to get me everywhere I needed to go. The apartment was large and amazing value compared to all the other shoe box hotels on offer. The staff here were amazing and extra helpful to everything I needed. I would definitely stay here again and recommend to all my friends coming to London.

+The room was very nice and spacious. Very quiet perfect for a nice sleep after a long day. The staff were nice, friendly and helpful. One nice access is how easy is tk access rhe building once you are checkin. The breakfast was really good and fresh and the breakfast lady was really kind. One of the best stays for this area of london.
+It was excellent location and comfortable room. Only thing that there is no housekeeper available for 24 hours.
“London calling”
+Good location, good sized room, clean and convenient
“Short London stay”
+Amazing location, chose for proximity to London city airport and Shoreditch, only negative is the check in and out times but room was bright and spacious - had bath robes that felt like a nice touch
+Amazing cost benefit, well located, the studio was perfect. Just the toilet was weird because it looks like an hospital bathroom.
“Comfortable stay”
+The room was comfortable, modern, bright, quiet and clean, and had everything we needed. Bed was very comfortable. We asked for non-feather pillows/duvet which were provided. Bad points: Only one towel was provided for the shower which wasn’t ideal: I’m sure they’d have given us another if we’d asked but we didn’t have time, so just shared one. There was some chipped/scruffy paint above the worktop which was a shame as it’d be very easy to tidy this up. Also, the housekeeping knocked on the door just before 10am which I thought was a bit much. We were just about to leave anyway. No non-dairy milk was available for drinks.
