Rough Guide "A fittingly happening spot in this über-hip neighbourhood, with modern but warm public spaces – all exposed brick and burnished metal – and comfy boutique rooms."

Time Out "Famous for its low rates (including some publicity-garnering £1-a-night rooms), the Hoxton deserves credit for many other things." Full review
