Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Corner London City is often praised for its convenient location, being just a couple of minutes' walk from Aldgate East station. Guests appreciate the spacious and modern rooms, some even highlighting the unexpected and creative design. The breakfast buffet receives positive feedback for its variety, including both European and British options, with a pancake machine being a particular hit; however, some guests have noted that the windowless rooms can get quite warm even with the air conditioning on. Guests can also enjoy complimentary tea and coffee available on each floor.

attentive staff unique touch coffee station
I found the staff to be very attentive, which i appreciated. the rooms each had unique touches, a nice surprise. my room was super clean. I noticed the clean surfaces immediately. there was a handy coffee station on my floor, a definite plus since the rooms lack coffee makers.
the self check-in process showed other customers' email addresses. i found this concerning because it does not align with gdpr compliance, and i had to insist on not using it. it was a bit awkward.
