Islington Inn

I love the cozy atmosphere in the old building and the helpful reception staff. It is a very friendly place.

Some of the amenities are a little worse for wear.

I stay here every time I go to the football the staff are very friendly it’s in a great location and really good value for money

The staff were lovely, and upgraded my room for free without me even asking which was a very pleasant surprise. The location was also very convenient

There maybe needed to be more lighting options as my room felt quite dingy. I plugged the lamp in on the other side of the room for a bit more consistent light

Staff really accommodating, friendly happy and willing to help

The location is excellent with a bus stop for buses from Islington and central London just opposite an a stop for buses into town a short distance to the left. Bus tickets are easy to manage now as they accept payment by card. There's no underground stop by the hotel - it's about 10-15 minutes away from Angel on the Northern Line but a couple of bus routes go pas the hotel, include the 73 which runs down to Oxford St. Essex Road is gentrifying and there is no shortage of cafes and shop close to the hotel. I could reach my room on the second floor which having to go upstairs. There is a platform lift available, a bit slow and ponderous but it gets you there (you just have to remember to keep the button pressed until you've arrived at your floor, When I was there (even on a Friday evening), the place was calm and quiet (don't be put off by the "Inn" in the name, it's no a pub as I initially thought (I was prepared for a noisy evening but it's calm). It's one of the few hotels in Islington where the price of a night's stay is closer to 100 than 200 pounds. I had a small single room but it was big enough for me and very clean. They don't serve breakfast at the hotel but there are plenty of places to choose from along the Essex Rd I'll probably stay there again next time I'm in the area

O There was nothing that i had any issues with,

Felt safe, easy to check in and comfortable

I enjoy very much the cosy and homely atmosphere that you get from these older houses. It's in a good place, not snack dab in the hustle and bustle but not too far away from shopping, food, and entertainment, such as the amazing Garage club. I would stay here to get a taste of real London, away from tourists and manufactured image.

My main grief with hotels is usually water pressure but this time the pressure was fine though the water was a bit too hot. Maybe it's a matter of tweaking but I didn't bother this time as I was only staying the one night.

Despite being dated interior, it was exceptionally clean. I travel for work and usually stay in big chains like Travelodge or Premier Inn. However this time I booked Islington Inn and I have never come across to hotel as clean as Islington Inn. And they do clean rooms all the time, even during this pandemic. With a big smile welcoming staff. 10/10.

Hotel has dated and tired interior. Walls not exactly sound proof so on a weekend can get noisy.

Staff was always friendly. Night clerk saved the day when I discovered I had left my phone charger at the office and set me up with a loaner. WiFi was good enough for zoom calls. Bed was super comfy. Kettle in the room meant I could make my own aeropress coffee.

I read a lot of negative reviews of this place. I don't think the reviewers had much experience of London hotels in this price range. This was clean, safe, friendly, and we'll situated. The room was not much bigger than the bed, but I don't expect much more for this price in this location. I will happily stay here again.

Spotless, comfy, quiet and central
