Central Hoxton Shoreditch

Central Hoxton Shoreditch Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to Central Hoxton Shoreditch on Kingsland Road, you immediately get that this is a hotel that knows its neighborhood. The building sits right in the heart of one of London‘s most creative quarters, and honestly, the location couldn’t be better for exploring what makes this area so special. It’s a three-star property that doesn’t try to be something it’s not — instead, it leans into being exactly what Shoreditch travelers actually want.

The Shoreditch Advantage

Here’s what I love about staying here — you’re literally surrounded by some of London’s best street art, independent coffee shops, and those quirky vintage stores that make Shoreditch famous. Brick Lane is just a short walk away, which means proper curry houses and bagel shops that have been around forever. The couples who stay here clearly get it (they rate the location 8.6), and I can see why. You can walk to Old Street station pretty easily, but more importantly, you’re in the thick of East London’s creative scene without having to commute to it every day.

What You’re Actually Getting

The room I stayed in was clean and functional — nothing fancy, but everything worked properly and the bed was comfortable enough after long days wandering around the city. You know what impressed me most? The staff actually knew the area well and could give real recommendations, not just the usual tourist spots. The building itself has that industrial-meets-modern vibe that fits perfectly with the neighborhood’s aesthetic, though don’t expect high-end touches at this price point.

Neighborhood Eats and Drinks

One thing that really works in this hotel’s favor is how many good eating options are within walking distance. There’s no fancy hotel restaurant here, but honestly, you don’t need one when you’ve got Dishoom just down the road and countless independent places to discover. The Sunday markets at Brick Lane are brilliant for breakfast, and if you’re into craft beer, you’re basically in heaven — some of London’s best breweries are right on your doorstep. I mean, you could spend a week just exploring the food scene within a ten-minute radius.

Why Guests Love It

What strikes me about Central Hoxton Shoreditch is that it delivers exactly what it promises — a solid base in an unbeatable location without any pretense. The 7.5 rating feels about right; it’s not going to blow you away with amenities, but it won’t disappoint either. For travelers who want to experience authentic East London rather than just pass through it, this place makes perfect sense. You’re paying for the location and the neighborhood access, and in Shoreditch, that’s actually a pretty smart trade-off. Plus, the fact that couples consistently rate the area so highly tells you something — this isn’t just a convenient spot, it’s genuinely enjoyable to explore together.

  Check in very simple and efficient. Staff were very helpful, friendly and on hand throughout our stay. Room was spacious and apparently we'd had a slight upgrade too – all good. Kitchen facilities all there and in good shape. Everything nice and clean – bed really comfortable. Location great for getting about and sightseeing / hitting the bars and restaurants too.

• Joanne from United Kingdom (7/10)

  The staff were friendly, not a bad location.

• Nicholas from United Kingdom (7/10)

  I arrived very early (4hours before I could check in) but the receptionist allowed me to leave my baggage in storage before I came back later to check in.
  Both my workplace and Christmas party were in very close proximity to the hotel, so it was in a fantastic location. Shoreditch is also a good location from where to explore London anyway.
  The check in process was quick and easy.
  The room was decent enough to put my head following my party.
