The hype
Travelers love the modern design, the spa facilities, and the location for Shoreditch nightlife, but often find the room tech confusing.
Montcalm East, Autograph Collection
$180-300 / 晚
如果以下情况适用，请预订 You want a high-tech, visually striking base in the heart of London's tech and creative district, and you prioritize a cool pool over a quiet location.
为什么人们喜欢它
- Futuristic 'optical illusion' architecture that stands out on the skyline
- Floor-to-ceiling windows with epic city views in 'Sky High' rooms
- The Bokeh Spa with its large indoor pool (a rarity for Shoreditch)
快速了解： A sharp, Instagram-ready glass wedge that feels more like a tech headquarters than a cozy hotel, sitting right on one of London's busiest roundabouts.
@Laurahtrav 的评论: I felt like I was living in the future here. The optical illusion building is wild, but the spa was my favorite part—it's huge and actually included in the stay. If you love modern design and want to be in the heart of Shoreditch, this is the spot.
住过这里的客人说
Reality check
The 'high-tech' room controls (touch panels for lights/blinds) are a major pain point — guests report struggling to turn off lights or dealing with glowing blue standby lights that ruin sleep.
- You're a tech worker visiting 'Silicon Roundabout'
- You want a hotel with a proper swimming pool in East London
- You appreciate modern, minimalist design over classic British coziness
清洁与维护
8.5
- Housekeeping: Generally good daily service, though some reports of late-in-the-day cleaning.
- Bathroom hygiene: Mostly sparkling, but occasional reports of hair in drains or water spots on chrome.
- Maintenance: The building is aging slightly; expect some scuffs on the high-tech panels or worn carpet edges.
- Linens & towels: Crisp, white, and high quality. Robes are plush.
- Odors & scents: Lobby smells of a signature 'woody' scent; rooms are generally neutral but can smell stale if AC filters aren't fresh.

常见问题和隐藏提示
预订前您真正想了解的一切。
Is there a rooftop bar?
No. The 'Sky Bar' mentioned in old reviews is a myth or confusion. The main bar is 'Marlowe' on the ground/mezzanine level.
Is the pool heated?
Technically yes, but a frequent complaint is that it feels cold (often described as 'freezing').
Can I open the windows?
No, the windows are sealed shut due to the building's climate control and high-rise nature.
How close is the tube?
Old Street station (Northern Line) is a 3-minute walk away.
Is breakfast included?
Usually not. It costs around £24-25 per person if purchased separately.
Are kids allowed in the spa?
Only during restricted hours (typically 7-9am and 3-5pm) and must be supervised.
内部人士建议
- ✨
Ask for a room *away* from the elevators; the layout funnels noise into those areas.
- ✨
The 'Marlowe' restaurant has a decent happy hour, but nearby Shoreditch bars are far better.
- ✨
You can use the 'Photo Lab' to print smartphone photos as retro-style polaroids for free/cheap.
出发前需要了解的5件事
💡The building's diamond shape creates some oddly shaped corners in standard rooms.

💡There is a optical illusion on the façade that makes the building look like it's moving when you walk past it.
💡The walk to the spa involves a slightly confusing maze of corridors.
💡Room service tray pickup can be slow, leaving hallways cluttered.
