Capsule Hotels in London

"I was genuinely surprised by the quality and setup of the cocoons. The mattress, pillow, duvet and towels were all good quality, and each cocoon had useful touches like plugs and lighting that made it feel comfortable rather than basic. The shower and toilet facilities are more like a modern gym than a hostel. They’ve upgraded the showers to black thermostatic units with large rainfall-style heads and handheld hoses, which makes the experience much nicer. A small but lovely detail was the calm background music in the bathroom areas. There are also mirrors with good lighting for makeup and plugs available for hair dryers, which is really practical."

"I recently stayed at Cosmos Capsule Coworking London and had a pleasant experience overall. This capsule hotel offers a unique blend of accommodation and coworking space at an affordable price, making it ideal for travelers who need a place to work and rest. The hotel is conveniently located on Hanbury Street, just an 11-minute walk from Aldgate East station. Its central location makes it easy to explore London or commute to nearby areas. Just outside the hotel, at 67 Hanbury Street, is a charming Chai and Coffee shop called Chaii Town that I highly recommend. They offer a great variety of Chai flavors and pastries. I tried their Ginger Chai and Chai Latte, both of which were delicious. Their exotic pastries, like Dubai Cookies and Matcha Cookies, pair perfectly with the aromatic Chai. The owner was wonderful, and the hospitality was exceptional. The capsules are well-designed and functional. Each capsule features ambient lighting with customizable colors—blue, pink, green, yellow, or white—which adds a nice touch of personalization. There’s also a TV screen and headphones provided, though I didn’t use them during my stay. The capsules are not soundproof, so a good night’s rest depends on the courtesy of fellow guests. Fortunately, everyone during my stay was considerate, and I slept well. Earbuds are provided in the capsule just in case. The shared spaces, including the showers and toilets, were very clean. The shared kitchen area includes essentials like a sink, microwave, kettle, tea, and cups. One standout feature is the massage chair in the common area, which offers a fantastic massage after a long day. There’s no traditional reception desk. Instead, check-in is automated via a WhatsApp message or email with an access code. This code grants entry to the building and a small box containing your key card. The process is straightforward and efficient once you get used to it. While the shared spaces were immaculate, the capsules could use a bit more attention. I noticed hairs from previous guests on the blanket, which suggests that cleaning standards could be improved. Overall Experience: Cosmos Capsule Coworking London is a great option for budget-conscious travelers who need a comfortable place to stay and work. The location, amenities, and unique capsule design make it a memorable experience. With a little more focus on capsule cleanliness, it would be perfect."

"Typical old British house in the centre of London."

"I recently spent three wonderful nights at QUEENS ELIZABETH HOSTEL, and I must say it exceeded my expectations! The hotel was impeccably clean, and the staff were friendly and welcoming. The rooms were comfortable, and the amenities were top-notch. I would highly recommend QUEEN ELIZABETH HOSTEL anyone looking for a relaxing and rejuvenating stay. The hotel's attention to detail and commitment to cleanliness were evident throughout my stay. Overall, I had a fantastic experience and would definitely stay here again. Five stars isn't en ough – I'd give it ten stars if I could!..."
