Town Hall Hotel & Apartments
Style Reinvented vintage cool
Setting Bohemian Bethnal Green
Town Hall Hotel & Apartments are housed in Bethnal Green’s old council building: modern fixtures such as floor-to-ceiling glass have been added to the grand design of the Edwardian building; the marble floors, high ceilings, stately staircases remain in charge. Fine-dining lovers are attracted by its superstar restaurant, Viajante, and you won’t spot a magistrate anywhere.

Our favourite rooms
Push the boat out and pick the De Montfort Suite, the former Edwardian council room. The ceilings are triple height, and vast glass room dividers brighten up the airy space even more. The heftily sized arched windows draft in lots of light through their plain and stained glass panels. There’s seating for 20 – and the head chef can whip up a tasting menu to be taken in-suite.
Packing tips
Ray-Bans, vintage tea dresses and your best brogues.

There’s no spa at the hotel, but a Cowshed one awaits down the road at Shoreditch Rooms.
