Top Hackney Central Hotel Reviews

Hotel Riu Plaza London Victoria

10/10 Excellent

"I recently had a great experience staying at the Hotel Rui Plaza London. The hotel and room were nice and clean and during the July heatwave in London, the AC worked well to keep me cool all day long. The best perk of this hotel is its close proximity to the London Victoria Station which contains both the Victoria train station and the Victoria Underground (Tube) platforms. It's a quick and safe one minute walk to/from the hotel to Victoria Station. I would definitely stay at the Hotel Rui Plaza again."

Royal National Hotel

8/10 Good

"I requested a quiet room and was put on the first floor at the front of the property so it was very noisy from the traffic. We had to sleep with the window open because there was no air conditioning in the room and it was a hot weekend. Good location but probably wouldn’t stay there again because of the noise and no air conditioning."

St. James' Court, A Taj Hotel, London

10/10 Excellent

"There are hotels that rely on location, hotels that rely on reputation, and hotels that understand that the entire experience ultimately depends on people. The Taj in St James succeeds on all three counts, but it was the staff who made the greatest impression. From the moment we arrived, the level of assistance was extraordinary. Nothing felt rehearsed or mechanical. Every question was answered quickly, every request was handled with genuine care, and the staff seemed able to anticipate what was needed before it had even been properly explained. Their helpfulness was not simply professional; it was instinctive. The hotel itself is beautifully designed, combining grandeur with warmth. The interiors are elegant without becoming intimidating, and every space feels deliberate, polished and carefully maintained. It has the confidence of a luxury hotel without the coldness that sometimes accompanies it. Our room was equally impressive: spacious, comfortable and beautifully presented. It provided exactly what a great hotel room should provide—a calm, private refuge from the movement and noise of London outside. The Taj in St James is a remarkable hotel, but its strongest asset is undoubtedly its staff. Beautiful surroundings can be designed. Excellent service has to be delivered, moment by moment, by people who genuinely care. Here, it was delivered flawlessly."

Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to go to Hackney Central?

The best time to visit Hackney Central is during the spring (April to June) and autumn (September to October) months.

These periods offer the most pleasant weather for exploring, with milder temperatures and less rain than the winter. You'll find it comfortable for walking around the streets, visiting the markets, and enjoying the outdoor spaces like London Fields. The longer daylight hours in spring and early autumn also allow for more sightseeing and evening activities.

For those who enjoy a lively outdoor market experience, visiting between April and October is ideal. Broadway Market, for instance, is a popular Saturday destination, and the warmer months make browsing the stalls and eating outdoors much more enjoyable. This is great for couples or solo travellers looking to soak up the local atmosphere and discover independent shops and eateries.

While summer (July and August) can also be pleasant, it can sometimes be quite warm and crowded, especially around popular green spaces.
