The hype
Travelers love the quirky decor and comfy beds, but often groan about the walk to the subway and the hit-or-miss breakfast.
Nhow London
$190-280/ noche
Reserva esto si You want a hotel that feels like an art gallery exploded inside a tech startup, and you don't mind a 10-minute walk to the Tube.
Por qué a la gente le encanta
- Aggressively fun design (Big Ben rocket ship, neon accents)
- Pet-friendly policy that treats dogs like royalty (beds, bowls, snacks)
- Solid location bridging the gap between trendy Shoreditch and posh Angel
Resumen rápido: It’s Instagram-bait central with a 'punk meets the Queen' theme that’s surprisingly comfortable, provided you don't need a traditional business vibe.
Reseñado por @elena_xtinulia: I stayed at Nhow London and it’s easily the most fun hotel I’ve visited. The room design is bold and playful, the food was fantastic, and I couldn't stop taking photos of the quirky art. It feels totally unique compared to standard hotels.

- You appreciate bold, eccentric design over beige minimalism
- You are traveling with a dog
- You want to be close to Shoreditch nightlife but sleep in a quieter area

Consejos de Insiders
- ✨
The 'Notting Hill' style doors in the hallways are a great photo op—each one is different.

Skip the hotel breakfast and walk 10 mins to 'The Breakfast Club' in Angel for a better meal.
- ✨
Check your room for 'sewage' smells immediately upon entry; a few guests reported dry P-traps in bathrooms.
