The hype
Reliably clean and comfortable, but the free Wi-Fi is painfully slow.
Premier Inn London Angel Islington
$130-220/ noche
Reserva esto si You want a predictable, high-value crash pad in the heart of trendy Islington, steps from the O2 Academy.
Por qué a la gente le encanta
- Unbeatable location next to Angel tube and N1 Shopping Centre
- Consistent 'Hypnos' beds that are genuinely comfortable
- Premier Plus rooms offer a decent upgrade for business travelers
Resumen rápido: It’s a purple-branded dormitory for gig-goers and conference attendees that trades character for extreme convenience.
Reseñado por @conciergekate: I stayed in this accessible room and was genuinely impressed. The lowered bed saved my knees, and the wet room is massive. It’s rare to find a budget-friendly spot in London that doesn't skimp on space or safety features. Highly recommend for stress-free travel.
Lo que dijeron los huéspedes que se hospedaron aquí
Reality check
The 'Good Night's Sleep Guarantee' is tested by the O2 Academy queues and street noise on lower floors.
- You are attending a show at the O2 Academy next door
- You need easy access to the Business Design Centre
- You prioritize a guaranteed good mattress over lobby aesthetics
Limpieza y Mantenimiento
8.5
- Housekeeping: Generally reliable, though 'opt-in' daily cleaning means you might miss a day if you forget the door hanger.
- Bathroom hygiene: consistently rated high; grout and tiles are usually sparkling.
- Maintenance: Newer 'Next Evolution' rooms are sharp; older rooms show scuffs on skirting boards.
- Linens & towels: Crisp white linens, standard industrial wash quality. Towels can be a bit thin.
- Odors & scents: Mostly neutral, though isolated reports of stale smoke smells in some rooms.

Preguntas frecuentes y consejos ocultos
Todo lo que realmente quieres saber antes de reservar.
Is there parking at the hotel?
No. You must park at the nearby Angel Central (cheaper overnight) or Business Design Centre (expensive, but discounts available for guests).
Can I open the windows?
No, windows are sealed shut. Climate control is your only airflow source.
Is breakfast included?
Usually no. It costs around £10.99-£12.99 per person, but kids eat free with a paying adult.
How close is the tube?
Angel station (Northern Line) is a 3-minute walk away.
Is it noisy?
It can be. The hotel is adjacent to a major music venue. Request a high floor to mitigate this.
Does the hotel have a gym?
No gym or spa on-site.
Consejos de Insiders
- ✨
The 'Meal Deal' (dinner + drink + breakfast) can actually save you money if you plan to eat at the hotel anyway.
- ✨
Use the Angel Central car park for overnight stays; it's often cheaper than the Business Design Centre rates.
- ✨
The 'Premier Plus' upgrade is worth it just for the faster Wi-Fi if you need to work.
