Point A London Liverpool Street Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to Point A London Liverpool Street on Folgate Street, you’ll notice it’s one of those smart, modern hotels that doesn’t try too hard to impress — and honestly, that’s refreshing. The building fits right into the historic Spitalfields area without looking out of place, which is actually harder to pull off than you’d think. This three-star property has that clean, minimalist vibe that works well when you’re more interested in exploring London than hanging around your hotel lobby.

Location That Actually Matters

Here’s the thing about this spot — it’s genuinely brilliant for getting around. You’re literally a two-minute walk from Liverpool Street Station, which means the entire city opens up to you via the Underground, Overground, and even direct trains to Stansted Airport. The Spitalfields Market is right around the corner (perfect for weekend browsing), and you can walk to Brick Lane’s famous curry houses in about five minutes. I mean, couples consistently rate this location over 9 out of 10, and after staying here, I totally get why.

The Room Experience

The room design is what Point A calls “compact but clever,” and they’re not wrong. Everything has its place — the bed is comfortable, there’s decent storage space, and the shower actually has proper water pressure. The windows are well-insulated too, which matters when you’re sleeping above one of London’s busiest transport hubs. You won’t find unnecessary frills here, but you will find everything you actually need, including reliable Wi-Fi and a workspace that’s usable if you need to catch up on emails.

Morning Fuel

The continental breakfast setup is straightforward — think quality pastries, decent coffee, fresh fruit, and the usual cereals and yogurts. It’s served in a bright, airy space that doesn’t feel cramped even when it’s busy (which it often is, given how many repeat guests this place attracts). You know what I appreciated? The coffee is actually good, not that watery stuff you sometimes get at chain hotels. There’s also a 24-hour grab-and-go market in the lobby if you need snacks or forgot to pack something essential.

Why Guests Love It

This hotel works because it knows exactly what it is — a well-located, efficiently run base for exploring London. The staff genuinely seem to care about helping guests navigate the city, and there’s something to be said for a place that focuses on doing the basics really well rather than trying to be everything to everyone. The fact that so many people come back speaks volumes. You’re paying for the location and reliability here, and in a city like London, that’s often exactly what you need. Plus, having Liverpool Street Station practically on your doorstep means you can maximize your time seeing the city instead of figuring out how to get around it.
