I stayed in the hotel for just one night whilst ona business trip. I found the staff not very friendly. the evening receptionist was barely friendly and the receptionist in the morning was unable to provide me decent information on how to get the easiest way to Prescott street, just a few block further... luckely that there are friendly taxi-drivers....

We stayed here for 8 nights over spring break and loved it! This hotel has everything a traveller needs, free internet access, full kitchen, across the street from Liverpool St. Tube Station. Tesco Grocery next door. Lots of good restaurants nearby. Will stay here again!

Just back from 2 night stay and were thrilled with choice of 196 Bishopsgate. Booked 2 bed apt and arrived to find 2 king bedrooms, living and kitchen areas and balcony. It was perfect for us. Location was superb as it was literally across the road from Liverpool street station. Those worried about security need not worry as police station... More

London is so easy to get around! So for the same price as the Hiltons and Marriotts....at the 196 Bishopsgate you get an additional washer and dryer and full kitchen. We have a family of 6 and with 4 kids laundry is a must when your ANYWHERE over a week stay. Tesco (huge grocery chain) outside the door and steps... More

I chose 196 for its apartment style as it was a base for a girls weekend away. I asked for early check in which could not be guaranteed but the room was ready when i needed it at no extra charge. We were upgraded from 1 bed apart to executive 1 bed (maybe bigger and with bathrobes?) which is always... More

196 Bishopsgate is a bit concealed but it's a very convenient spot for business travelers. It's right across the street from a main subway stop and easily connects to other parts of the city. What's great is there's a grocery store very nearby and the units offer full kitchen facilities. I'd recommend this as a great place for the convenience... More

I'll say up front that the visit was not without any difficulties. But we were very happy with the service and accomodations. this was the... More

We stayed in a 2-bed apt in July 2011, and the service leaves a LOT to be desired. We stayed with 3 kids and on the first night the DVD player didn't work. Guy on the desk promised that something would be done about it in the morning. Following morning the new guy on reception hadn't heard about the problem,... More

I stayed here around 9 days on a business trip to London. First, temper your expectations. Visit their website and keep in mind that the pictures of the place were probably taken when the facility was just finished. The place is getting a bit old in the tooth as they say with the carpets worn down and could use a... More
