As suggested by its name, the 1-star Brick Lane Hotel is situated on the iconic Brick Lane in London’s East End. Located in the Borough of Tower Hamlets, this street has become famous for its lively atmosphere, wide array of curry restaurants, Sunday market, world-famous graffiti – including some by Banksy – nightclubs and historic buildings. Indeed, one of these, the building now occupied by the Brick Lane Hotel, has gone down in London lore as the place where one of Jack the Ripper’s victims was last seen. Brick Lane lies just outside the official boundaries of the City of London and is within walking distance of Liverpool Street Station, Tower Hill, the Monument to the Great Fire of London and the River Thames. Aldgate East Tube Station, on the Hammersmith & City and District Line, is only 250 metres away, while London Underground and Overground services also run from Whitechapel Station, a little further away. The eight single, double and twin rooms at the Brick Lane Hotel feature en-suite bathroom, air conditioning, heating, hair dryer, flat-screen TV, Wi-Fi and tea/coffee making facilities. Underneath the hotel you will find the Sheraz Restaurant, which serves curries and exotic meals using locally sourced ingredients. The friendly staff at Brick Lane Hotel’s 24-hour reception can provide tourist recommendations, as well as a left-luggage service. Great rooms and historic restaurant in an iconic London setting.
