What guests think

At Islington Inn, travellers describe a budget-friendly base with simple rooms, generally clean spaces, and mostly friendly staff, balanced by dated décor, compact layouts, and a handful of maintenance issues like weak water pressure and low shower heads.

Location is praised for easy bus links and access to Islington venues and central sights. Rooms are basic and small, with thin walls and occasional cigarette smells reported. Facilities are minimal and essentially room-only. Expect a simple, budget stay focused on convenience.

the room was dirty. floor filthy . smelt of mould and damp shower was mouldy sink hot water tap did not work i.e. no hot water . beds very uncomfortable. carpets outside were disgusting. no power socket near the kettle we balanced it on the radiator . ( not safe at all.) door lock did not work you have to pull the door shut and double lock to close. web site advertise bar / restaurant / breakfast this does not exist . web site said extensive refurbishment but only if this was done back in the sixty's. photos on the web site are a blatant LIE .. none of this is true. i have stayed in hotels / inns / and b&b's all over the world and this rates as one of the worst . will never stay again and never. i state never stay there spend your hard earned money elsewhere. overpriced and a dump . I hope this helps others steer clear.

The staff were efficient and pleasant.. But the room was very very basic. Water pressure was very bad. Cracked wall tiles, windows that wouldn't close properly (causing a smell of smoking coming in the window.. Lift was slow. It was local to the places we needed to be and the price wasn't bad for London...

Excellent service and a great welcoming. The reception team are always smiling and are happy to help. The room is not too bad. The room and bathroom were nice and clean, and the bed was comfortable. The only issue is that the walls look worn out, but that wasn't a big problem for us. Overall, great stay!

The excellent staff could not really make up for the inadequacies in my room alas. The shape of the room meant that floor space was lost as bed was pushed into a triangular corner. The shower cubicle was old and grubby and the cubicle doors really only appropriate for a malnourished child. Suggestion: make bathroom a wet room! Kettle flex was not able to reach plug and meant tea/coffee making was a trip hazard. Gap in curtains allowed light to shine direct in face. Great location, good staff but disappointing experience

This is a good price for a very well situated accomodation. Very small room, but has all you need. Good shower. Very thin walls, could hear person next door on his phone, and the person he was speaking to, room was very hot. Cleaner was bashing about with a hoover at 8.45 am outside in corridor and in room next door. Seemed a bit unnecessary given check out at 11 and check in at 12. Would stay again as location good for me. Does the job. Do t expect luxury, but it doesn’t offer it.

The hotel was fine for what we needed, however it does seem a bit tired and in need of a revamp. The duvet was far too thick for the time of year. Bed was okay, but could've used better/more pillows. Window didn't open, but a fan was provided. Shower height far too low, I'm 5ft9 and didn't fit under it, my 6ft4 husband had no chance.

I arrived at around 11pm and was on a work call when I was outside. The receptionist told me he would not let me into the building because I was too loud. When he finally let me in, he shouted at me, threw the krr er y at me, and gave me the incorrect room number. The room was tiny, noisy, and there were what appeared to be pubic hair over the quilt, which although was a single room, did not fit the bed, so the night was cold also. Very run down and in need of repair. No hot water for shower in the morning.

Absolutely stank of smoke and bad plumbing. We went to politely ask to change rooms and let them know about the smoke and he seemed annoyed and told us the smell was coming from the street. This wasn’t true as the street was empty and there were cigarette butts on the window sill. We weren’t able to change rooms. Mentioned it again in the morning to a different man at the desk and he just glared at us, no apology or offer of a refund / partial refund. The staff were really rude right from the start, apart from the cleaner who we passed in the hall - she was very smiley and friendly. We then tried to get a refund through Expedia but they couldn’t get through to the hotel to authorise it. I think this is the first time I have ever left a bad review.

I normally do not stay at places with lots of bad reviews, but i'm glad i gave Islington Inn a try. I stayed there for a weekend in July, for under £200, which is great for London. The Inn is located in an up market area of London full of amenities. Rooms are basic but clean and comfortable. I would definitely recommend this place as a budget friendly option for a short trip, with great travel links to all London attractions :)
