Hampton By Hilton London Old Street Overview

First Impressions

Walking into Hampton By Hilton London Old Street, you immediately get that “this is going to work out just fine” feeling. It’s one of those three-star hotels that actually gets the basics right — clean, modern, and refreshingly straightforward without trying too hard to be something it’s not. The lobby has that crisp Hilton polish you’d expect, but there’s something genuinely welcoming about the staff that makes you feel like you’re in good hands from the moment you arrive.

Location & Getting Around

Here’s what I love about this spot in London — you’re right in the thick of things without being stuck in tourist central. Old Street puts you perfectly between the creative buzz of Shoreditch and the financial district, which means you get the best of both worlds. The Old Street tube station is literally a few minutes’ walk away, and honestly, that makes all the difference when you’re trying to get anywhere in the city. I mean, couples seem to absolutely love this area (they rate it nearly 9 out of 10), and I can see why — there’s something energetic but not overwhelming about this part of town.

The Room Experience

The room itself is what you’d call efficiently designed — everything has its place, and nothing feels cramped or awkward. The beds are genuinely comfortable (not just hotel-marketing comfortable), and the shower pressure is actually decent, which you know can be hit or miss in London hotels. What I really appreciated was how quiet it stays at night, even though you’re in such a central location. The air conditioning works properly too, which might sound basic but you’d be surprised how many places get that wrong.

Breakfast & Dining

The breakfast situation here is honestly better than it needs to be for a three-star place. They do a proper full English alongside the usual buffet spread, and the quality is solid — not fancy, but definitely satisfying. The restaurant area gets busy around 8 AM, so if you’re not a morning person, you might want to aim for earlier or later. I found the coffee to be surprisingly good, and they keep everything well-stocked even during the rush.

Why Guests Love It

What really sets this place apart is how it delivers on the fundamentals without any fuss. You get reliable wifi, helpful staff who actually know the neighborhood, and that sense of being well-located without paying premium prices. The whole experience feels… well, it just works. It’s the kind of hotel where you spend your time exploring London rather than dealing with hotel problems, and that’s exactly what you want. Plus, with an 8.1 rating from actual guests, it’s clear that most people leave feeling like they made a smart choice.
