I recently had the pleasure of staying at Buckle Street Studios by Locke and must say it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The moment I entered the hotel, I was captivated by its unique design and attention to detail. The bed in my room deserves a special mention – it was unbelievably comfortable. I found myself reluctant to leave in the morning morning, and I even stayed until the very last minute. The hotel's commitment to providing a cozy and inviting atmosphere truly stood out. One of the aspects I appreciated the most was the incorporation of art into everyday items, such as the beautifully crafted cups by local artists. It added a touch of charm and authenticity to the overall ambiance. Another noteworthy detail was the hotel's support for refugees by offering tea made by them. This thoughtful gesture not only made the stay more meaningful but also contributed to a sense of global awareness. The location of the hotel was perfect, making it easy for me to explore the surrounding area. During my stay, I had the pleasure of interacting with the receptionist, Simona. Her friendly and helpful demeanor added a personal touch to my experience. We had a delightful chat, and to top it off, she graciously offered me coffee from the nearby coffee place, further enhancing the warm and welcoming atmosphere of the hotel. I want to express my gratitude to Simona for going above and beyond to make my stay enjoyable. Her kindness and attentiveness truly made my day better. Overall, my time at this hotel exceeded my expectations, and I would highly recommend it to anyone seeking a delightful and memorable stay.

I arrived after midnight and night time receptionists were a bit less professional than day time receptionists (Simona was great!).

Bed was super comfy and hotel is located in a really good location. I did not run into any troubles

Staff was excellent!!! Interacted with 3 of them and they were all so helpful, attentive and friendly. Place was super cute and cozy and clean. Good restaurants and pubs very close too.

The apartment was incredibly small and tight. Banged my elbow on the wall probably 5 times. Wife did too. When i say small and tight, i mean it. Luggage didn't have anywhere to go, just blocking either front door or bathroom, your choice. Had to move it and/or trip over it a lot. All in all a cute place tho. Just be warned that it is very tight moving around.

I really loved the view, the style, and the facilities. I will surely come back here for my future work trips as it's very easy to do laundry or to work from their dedicated work space. The location is also perfect as it's super well connected but also not too noisy as the very city centre can be.

I was expecting the room to be bigger, to be honest. I'm not sure I'd book the small studio again. Even for 1 traveller can be a bit tight, as there's no dining area for example (there are 2 small sofa tables, but it's quite uncomfortable). The toilet is also split (the toilet bowl is in its own mini room), which has its pros and cons.

Wonderful stay in a very central location, besides Aldgate East. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. Rooms are small(-ish) but that's too be expected from a stay in London :-). The room was very clean, brand new, and had all the necessary facilities. Bathroom was also quite big! Further, the studio also has a gym and great coffee shop located right next to it. To conclude, I would highly recommend this stay!

I didn't mind sharing the room with my co-worker, but do take in mind that if you're not comfortable sharing one bed/small spaces, the room might not be as suitable for you. Besides that, no other notes!

Beatrice checked us in, even though we were a few hours late for check in, the 24 hour reception made it so easy and it went by smoothly. She was so kind and nice and gave us all the information we needed regarding our stay. The place has a lot of facilities like the gym and the laundry room. We made full use of the washer and dryer and also the iron, but it took a long time for the dryer to fully dry our clothes. Maybe we picked out the wrong setting, but overall it was such a lovely and cosy place to stay at even if we wanted to stay in for the night. Neha checked us out and even let us put our things at the reception for a few hours so we could go have lunch bag-free. It was such a delightful experience and I would recommend my family and friends to stay here if they’re ever visiting Central London!

It was a tight squeeze to get into the bed as there was little walk space, but theres nothing bad to say about the place. Bed was extra comfy and we could ask for clean towels anytime.

The modern style of the interior of the rooms were very clean and slate. Everything was clean and minimal which made space of storage in a small apartment. As a solo traveller, the room was a good size. The bathroom was clean, came with towels (including floor mat which is important) and also included shampoo and body wash. The apartments were also furnished with appliances to cook which you’d usually receive in an airbnb so it was good having that access. There is a laundry option and some shared spaces to be used outside of your room. Also the community based lobby area hosts events and displays art work, celebrating the arts which was a really modern twist which I loved. They also store luggage for you which is amazing not having to try to find somewhere else!

For people who are planning to rest indoors all day, the space may feel limited as the bed and the couch are both pushed to the corner of the rooms and the walkway space is just the hallway to the bathroom and kitchen. Personally, i think this is a great space to wind down at the end of the day, but probably not to keep you indoors for the full day.

Staying at London Locke was an absolute delight! The modern and stylish design of the hotel immediately caught our eye, and we were not disappointed upon arrival. The room was spacious, impeccably clean, and equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, always ready to assist with any inquiries or requests we had. The location was perfect, with easy access to public transportation and many attractions within walking distance. We especially enjoyed the vibrant atmosphere of the surrounding neighborhood. Overall, our experience at London Locke exceeded our expectations, and we highly recommend it to anyone visiting London!

The studios were just as expected. We were told how the studios work on arrival, and it was perfect for our needs. We loved the fact that the cleaning is done once a week, as we don't like extra visitors in our room while we're not there. The location was excellent for us, the underground was nearby and it was also within walking distance from our favourite places. The neighbourhood nearby was also amazing to explore. Comby beds and a well-equipped kitchen, everything was well thought out. The room was very well temperature controlled. Good pricing and we found value for money, so would definitely choose again when staying in London.

Very little space to open luggage, but there were ways around it. It was a small studio, so this was expected and didn't bother us. I loved the little comfy corner sofa, so would rather have that than more floor space. There could be soap in the kitchen or a handtowel. The kitchen was equipped well with necessities but I would've loved a bigger bowl or a strainer for cooking. The lighting took a while to figure out but we eventually got there. The lighting could be better on top of the mirrors but again, we visited only 3 nights so it wasn't a deal-breaker.

Second time staying and we loved this place all over again. Love the decor, it was super clean and the actual hotel smelt nice and not just of commercial cleaning products (probably not something a lot of people care about). Staff are super friendly and helpful but special shoutout to Neha at the front desk- so friendly and down to earth <3. Quick tube journey from Aldgate East gets you to wherever you need to go. There’s also a bus stop 2 mins around the corner.

Not a dislike as such but we had to change rooms as the first one was a bit too small and we had no floor space (my bf is also very tall) but would’ve been perfect if it was just a room for one. The change of rooms was super quick and easy though :)
