196 Bishopsgate  

location was ideal for a girls weekend away

the apartment was nothing like it was in the photos. We were under the impression that the 2 bed apartment was luxury and had a balcony, none of this was there. The luxury part should not be on the website and the floors felt like they needed a good wash. The shower was rubbish and hardly had any power. If it was supposed to be luxury I would have thought that it would have had two toilets as well.

The feel of the room (505) was superb. Nice balcony, kitchonette....it felt like an apartment instead of a hotel room. Great location. Very helpful staff (Renata, I believe)....I would stay again

Excellent facilities, the apartments have everything you could need and if you compare to a hotel, absolutely fab. Well kitted out kitchen, lovely bathroom and bedrooms. I was there for one evening only and didn't want to do a shop for one night so was delighted to find 6 teabags in the room, just perfect.

The only downsides I could find were I couldn't find a hairdryer - there may have been one as there was everything else you'd ever need but as I say, couldn't find one; lastly the doors are all swing shut and quite heavy and I'm going back in June with my husband and little one and I'm a little worried that she'll get her fingers caught in the doors.

This was our third stay with you. We always enjoy staying at 196 Bishopsgate, and we have always found everything about the serviced apartments to be excellent. We thank you for your first-class care and attention, and we look forward to staying with you soon again.

Have stayed here many times. So convenient with the tube station so close.

Lage (Nähe Undergound), quiet, good sized rooms

Reception more like a youth hostel, a bit run down, no elegance or charm; high price on the Internet compared to prizes offered on the spot

Good location, close to train station, supermarket and restaurants and pubs.

Receptionists could smile a bit more, maybe they tried to appear very "profesional/corporate" like, but a friendly smile can always make your welcome feel a bit "warmer" :o)

I thought the staff was outstanding, especially the ladies who took care of our room.

The lighting in the rooms, especially the bathrooms was poor. The mechanical things seem a bit worn. The lift and our washer/dryer both broke while we were there, but the staff did their best to accommodate us.

The apartment style room is very confortable, and just 1 min walk to liverpool street station and just 2 min walk to Tesco and a lot restaurant near by including one 24 hour restaurant 20 meters next to it and a police station.

I love to stay there since its a service apartment. We got also a free upgrade. The place is cozy though we had no view from the apartment. The food place was also easily reached. Tesco grocery, mark & spencer food were just foot stepped from the hotel. Overall we will come back for our next trip to London

Everything you needed was their

My only point I would of preferred Bath Sheets not Bath Towels

Location and proximity to the Tube were fine. The beds were comfortable and the rooms were spacious, as befitting a hotel that caters to longer stays for businesspeople. I'd recommend this place but only to business travelers.

We foolishly decided on the continental breakfast which was very overpriced and obviously used recycled and not very decent food (one milk carton expired four days before). In addition, we got WAY more than we needed -- a 8 liters of milk AND 8 liters of juice for four people. The beds had a single large pillow to be shared by two people. Obviously oriented on the single business traveler, but double beds should have two pillows. Access from the street was supposed to work using the room swipe card but none of them worked -- for us or other tenants. Fortunately, reception is 24 hrs but when the clerk is in the WC or having a smoke then you have to wait on the street -- fortunately (?) the police station is two doors away....

Staff were very welcoming and friendly. Room was amazing. Big, well maintained apartment and very clean. Location brilliant. Had everything you needed and more. Felt really special. Always stayed in an Hotel before now, but loved this idea of having an apartment and would do again. An excellent place to stay. Will be visiting again.
