"An attractive Victorian townhouse in an elegant terrace."
Frommer's
"The quintessential Portobello Hotel tale is the night that Kate Moss and Johnny Depp allegedly took a champagne bath here. It sums up the hotel -- glamorous, bubbly, and expensive."

Since windows are not double-glazed, request a room in the quiet rear.

"The very definition of shabby chic, the decor is half high-Victorian, half colonial, with claw-foot tubs and a great deal of red velvet."
Fodor's
"One of London's quirkiest hotels, the little Portobello... is seriously hip, attracting scores of celebrities to its small but stylish rooms that are decorated with joyous abandon."

"An art deco town hall, abandoned in the early 1980s and turned into a chic hotel in 2010, is now a lively and stylish place, with the best of the building's elegant original features intact."

"In 2010, a grand, Grade II-listed, early 20th-century town hall was transformed into a classy modern aparthotel – despite its location between a council estate and a scruffy row of shops."

"The former Town Hall in Bethnal Green has been converted into guest rooms and apartments. Free Wi-fi, crisp styling and a pool in the basement."
