The hoxton rocks
Must start by saying i'm not someone who always gives 4 & 5 stars... was there on business for 3 days friday - sunday reception were well trained and very friendly for he locale. it's the first time a hotel have ever asked me if i would like to swipe a credit card for additional services. i choose not to, check-in and out were swift and easy. the feel of the hotel is modern retro and is ultra funky, yet they still maintain a very professional image. if i'm being really picky, the pink strip lights gave the corridors a slightly seedy feeling, but the rooms were very well laid out (apart from the tv which i wouldn't use - so no issue) and carried off the retro funky feel very well. comfy beds, spacious feel, breakfast sandwiches for £4! my one gripe during the stay (and this is minor!) were the ice cubes in the mens urinal... they seemed a pointless waste of time, money and water. however apparently they keep toilets fresher and would be more economical if there wasn't also a flush system. the problem is that they were the round ones with the dimples. dimples in a urinal think about it... thankfully not me, but one of our group ended up peeing on the bosses shoes. provided hilarity for us all but probably embarrasing for both parties at the time! as an aside there was a payment problem with the verified by visa system. hotelsclick solved it more than satisfactorily. having booked 2 hotels in the last week with them they will be my first port of call for hotels in europe from now on! not only was i exceptionally pleased with the service but i paid 40% less than all the others who booked direct with the hotel. i know this sounds like a joke and that hotelsclick must be paying me for a review this good. they're not. i love giving feedback and am more than happy to talk about things that annoy me. however in this case - top sevice, top price - i honestly cannot fault it! special thanks to luana my personal customer service rep!
