This past February we spent 2 cozy weeks snuggled in the Avo Hotel every night. Coming from California for London Fashion Week we needed a spot in East London and thank goodness our London contact recommended the Avo. We rented the suite and I felt at home from the minute our cab pulled up front. We were greeted on the... More

We went to London for a wedding nearby and stayed in the Avo Hotel. The service was super friendly and helpful. Our room was really clean, comfortable and modern. There are loads of free DVDs you can borrow for a comfy night in. We went in Easter time and were welcomed to our room with a scrummy Green & Blacks... More

May be a small room but hey it's London. Good price , great service and we would definitely stay again. You can get a bus nearby straight into the centre and they offer lots of DVD's for a quiet night in. Beds are comfortable, lots of toiletries and a dressing gown to boot. Excellent .

I must have liked it because I feel a bit bad about only giving it three stars, but then again I'll probably look for somewhere different next time, so overall it's just an "OK". On the plus side the bed was big and comfortable, the bathroom was very clean with really nice quality fittings, taps, shower etc. And it is... More

I actually stayed there in September of 2011 but just got around to posting! While I thought everything about the hotel itself was excellent, it was admittedly a bit farther than I expected from downtown London, but more on that later. The owners and staff were very kind and helpful, I loved the little video lending library they had downstairs... More

The room I stayed in was more like a studio apartment with wonderful amenities which included microwave and small fridge, stove, and washing machine. The bed was very comfortable. I loved the decor. The hotel is located in the Hackney area which is close to many bus routes and the Tube. The area is safe to walk at night. There... More
