Mondrian London Shoreditch

I had the pleasure to stay at the Mondrian for my birthday a couple of days ago and I have to say, our experience has been nothing short of exceptional. The Mondrian staff, and I'd like to especially mention the lovely Heiko here, really goes the extra mile! When we arrived, we were greeted warmly and got a surprise upgrade to our room, which was simply amazing. Thank you again, Heiko, for your lovely hospitality and warmth! The rooms' interior is very luxurious with bespoke artwork and dark wooden floors. Let's say you definitely feel special in that space. I'd like to highlight the hotel's very own steam showers, which has been a true blessing. I've tried many luxury hotels in London but have never come across one that has steam showers. If you like doing a favour to your health and skin, use this feature. :) At midnight, two lovely staff members came to our room and brought a bottle of wine and a beautifully written birthday card to congratulate me in person. They were so lovely and I can't thank them enough for making me feel so special as a guest, that's exactly how it should be. Thank you again for going the extra mile! I can also recommend the hotel's breakfast, which gives you bright and lovely views the morning after your stay as the cafe is at the rooftop of the hotel. Plus, the food and coffee was very delicious, I can recommend the Açai bowl here. :) Another big plus: Situated in what might be the coolest area of London, Shoreditch, the Mondrian is fantastically close to the area's best restaurants, entertainment hubs and public transport options. Just a short 3-minute walk away is the famous Brick Lane, and the surrounding streets are filled with quirky shops where you will find wonderful art, decoration or fashion pieces that you won't find anywhere else. To conclude: This hotel hits the 11 out of 10 and the Mondrian has just made it to the top of my favourite hotels in London. Thank you again!

Amazing hotel! The rooms were very spacious, with two seperate double beds and plenty of space to move around. The beds and pillows were one of the most comfortable we experienced on our European holiday. The bathroom was also very functional, with a large basin, heated floors and large shower. The hotel staff were very helpful, giving recommendations for things to do and places to eat. The hotels rooftop is also a nice place to wind down at the end of the day. Location wise, the hotel is walking distance to a few underground stations and markets. Plenty of pubs and restaurants are also nearby.

Absolutely nothing!

Excellent location near wonderful restaurants, bars and pubs. 5-10 minute walks to different subway and bus stops. The room was small, but to be expected in London. The bed was exceptionally soft with great linens. The steam shower was a nice touch and welcomed after a day exploring the damp city. The restaurants in the hotel were great and the service excellent.

The thermostat automatically turned down when you left the room and it took some time to warm up again. We would immediately jump under the duvet until we could warm ourselves.

We stayed one night for our wedding anniversary and were treated to an upgrade on arrival (room 222 for our 2nd anniversary, maybe intentional?!) a bottle of bubbles and some chocolates, which we really appreciated. The bed was super comfy and we enjoyed the steam shower. The rooftop pool was great.

There wasn’t much, but our breakfast experience could have been improved. We were offered a lovely outside table near the pool but then had to go back inside to find someone to serve us as we had waited so long. The breakfast itself was good but thought it odd to have no brown sauce available for the full English (a very small issue!) That part of the roof terrace should probably be non smoking whilst people are eating out there (there are other areas) as a couple came out and sat down at the seat next to us for a smoke which wasn’t pleasant blowing over us whilst we were eating our breakfast. The waiter said nothing, just brought an ashtray.

The bed was SO COMFY!! The sheets were so soft and the size of the bed was great. We also really loved the steam shower! The location was so handy for everything and everywhere we wanted to go. We had a fantastic weekend. The staff was great and drinks at the rooftop bar/restaurant were a great way to spend the first afternoon.

Breakfast wasn’t included in the rate I had booked but there are loads of cafes nearby so we had fun exploring the area instead. There was no separate door to the toilet, just the bathroom as a whole, so there wasn’t as much privacy as I’d have liked.

stylish decor, friendly staff and great location. Everybody but one member of staff were amazing and so helpful. loved our room especially the steam shower! beds really comfortable and could not hear any noises fro m the busy street

the bar staff were a little rude in Christians. we ordered champagne but they had no champagne flutes and when I asked for some flutes the girl working said no we don’t have any what’s your problem a glass is a glass. I was totally shocked by her comment. we were celebrating so I didn’t want to let it bother me and just left it but I was really disappointed in how rude she was.

Very friendly and helpful staff, reception were excellent on check in and especially at check out. We checked out at 06:25, the lady at reception had a black cab waiting for us and the check out completed with a print out for us when we arrived down. We had food and drink in BiBos tapas bar, the staff there were brilliant, in particular the manager, she was fantastic, always with a big smile, nothing was a problem creating a great fun and relaxed atmosphere. I'm sorry I can't recall her name. The food in the Tapas bar was good. The room wasn't big, but big enough. The design, quality and layout was very good. The shower was powerful enough, with a steamroom function. The room had a coffee maker, kettle, iron and hairdryer. The king size bed was extremely comfortable with good quality duvet and pillows.

On Monday night the bar in the lobby area had closed earlier than advertised when we arrived down for a drink. The staff in the Tapas bar stayed open, longer than they were supposed to, in order to accommodate the two of us and three other people. I couldn't figure out the pool on the top deck. You have to go through the restaurant to get into it... the restaurant/bar up there seems vaguely autonomous to the rest of the hotel.

stunning hotel, great roof top pool and bar area, rooms were lovely

rooms on the small side

Loved the room, the location and the bar and restaurant. The bed was massive and the room and bathroom was immaculate and nice. This aspect met my expectations for a 5 star and we found ourselves preferring to drink, eat and relax in the hotel instead of venturing out a couple of times. Breakfast in Laurels on the Roof was exquisite. Every single member of staff was sound and pleasant. Particularly the bar staff in Christine's on the ground floor who were a delight.

The pool area was not as advertised on all the images including from official Mondrian Shoreditch accounts, there was a (hopefully only semi-permanent) structure built on the poolside so that instead of lounging space where there are photos of people sitting on the pool edge, or photos of bubbly at the poolside there was instead indoor restaurant looking tables? You cannot have only drinks on the top floor, it is only dinner (other than breakfast). Weird. We never ended up trying to use the pool because it seemed awkward to commit to going up there in your bathrobe and walk through a restaurant.

Loved this hotel and front desk staff were fantastic. Great location close to restaurants, underground etc. Great in room dining menu and food tasted very good.

On two occasions I had housekeeping enter the room even though the “do not disturb” sign was hung. Also asked for extra coat hangers to be taken to my room but they never turned up. Rooftop pool is meant ti be accessible for hotel guests at all times but once I was turned away by a rude staff member because I didn’t intend to eat at the restaurant.
