Be warned: The signature Langham “Blissful Bed” may tempt you to sleep in, so request a wakeup call before lying down.
DK Eyewitness
"The Langham was Europe’s first grand hotel when it opened in 1865 and still offers an ultraluxurious experience behind its sprawling Victorian facade."
Star Service
"This hotel, once a mediocre Hilton, has improved immensely under Langham's Hong Kong owners, as it should given its bloodlines as London's first purpose-built hotel."

Rough Guide
"A fittingly happening spot in this über-hip neighbourhood, with modern but warm public spaces – all exposed brick and burnished metal – and comfy boutique rooms."
Concierge
"For those who thrive on Hoxton's galleries, garment wholesalers, hip clubs, and swank bar-restos... this is a second home."

Avoid the high tourist months of June and July.

Time Out
"Famous for its low rates (including some publicity-garnering £1-a-night rooms), the Hoxton deserves credit for many other things."

DK Eyewitness
"Hoxton has been one of London’s trendiest areas in the last few years, and it fittingly has the city’s hippest hotel, with small but inventively styled rooms with plenty of technology."
