WHY WE PICKED THIS HOTEL

It’s rare to find a hotel in Shoreditch that’s both this cool and this comfortable. Aethos combines standout modern design with one of East London’s best locations, giving you style upstairs and energy on your doorstep.

HOTEL DESCRIPTION

Aethos Shoreditch is a stylish base in the heart of East London, tucked just off Old Street in a part of the city that’s packed with great food, galleries, and late-night energy. Even though you’re right in the mix, the hotel feels calm once you step inside, with a cosy, design-led feel that suits weekends, work trips, or a few days of exploring. On-site, you’ve got plenty to lean on without needing to plan much. There’s Aethos Café for coffee and easy meals, plus a livelier dining and bar scene that’s becoming a real draw in its own right. For downtime, there’s a 24-hour gym and a steam room, and you can also book in-room spa treatments when you want a quieter reset before heading back out.

Our take on the stay

Eliza

I love how the lobby café and bar blur the line between hotel and neighbourhood hangout, you could easily spend half your stay downstairs and still feel like you really experienced London.
