Description
The Central, London

The Central is a money saving London budget hotel, located in the East End of London. Guests at this hotel get to enjoy the benefit of being located above a traditional London pub. This atmospheric Victorian pub is a great place to soak up a real taste of the East End. You can relax with a drink or enjoy a game of pool or darts. Staying at The Central you will see a completely different side of London life, which contrasts dramatically with that of Kensington and Notting Hill.

The Central is ideal for tourists and students who are travelling on a budget. Rates are considerably cheaper than those of more central hotels and transport links from Upton Park make travelling around East London easy, with train access to Central London. The majority of rooms are singles, but double, triple and twin rooms are also available. The Central is self-catering accommodation, so there is a well-equipped kitchen for saving money on meals.

You can also explore the markets of the East End such as Petticoat Lane, Spitalfields and Columbia Road Flower Market, all of which are easy to access and give you a sense of the lively East End atmosphere.

Staff are friendly, helpful and welcoming. The rooms are definitely budget, though you get value for your money. My private room had an en suite bathroom

The toilets were clean and the breakfast was good but the room was a bit dirty. The mattress was comfortable though. The room appears much more modern and spacious on the picture as it is in reality but for one night it's ok

Good service, clean toilets and bathrooms. The apartment was ok, but some broken furniture and a bit dirty. But it was ok for the price range at this hotel
