The Star By Hackney Downs - (Near Hackney, london)

Dan Morgan My partner and I stayed for two nights, and the experience was impeccable. The hotel itself is laid out well; it was quiet and relaxing, and the staff definitely went above and beyond. The swimming pool was lovely, and the ambience was very peaceful. The restaurant catered well to our needs, and the staff there were incredibly nice; when we had to wait a while for our food, they didnt charge us for some of our drinks and were so polite about it. My only small issue—hardly worth mentioning—was that the plug sockets in the bedroom could have been a bit more accessible. It was a minor inconvenience, as there were plugs available if you hunted for them. However, the room itself was quite spacious, the bed was huge, and the bathroom was very clean and well-presented. I am definitely considering returning in the future.

Trude McLaren Madokas lessons is a brilliant peek into Japanese culture and food. The whole experience, set in a learner-friendly environment, is superb. The takeaway food is also plentiful, making it great value for money. Loved it and will return for another class.

yvonne Patrick I came in for Vietnamese Pho(Noodle Soup) to keep the cold out, the service here is amazing , the server welcomed me on arrival and was very hospitable during my time here. The food was amazing and the art on the wall is breathtaking. I will definitely recommend and return to this establishment. If you’re having a hard time choosing from the menu she will give you great suggestions.

Sam v Great atmosphere, lovely and accommodating staff. Had a stupendous breakfast there, and the chairs and tables come in one piece which blew us away ! Our only regret was to not have come here sooner !

hello carmel A fabulous find in Clapton where I was picking up a book from Pages. We had the most delicious brunch, at a cute corner table where we could chat while watching the world go by. Great coffee, very friendly service and really tasty food. The chorizo was so good we had to ask for an extra helping!

Paul Jauncey Absolutely delicious sandwiches! We shared two of the vegan options, some fries, and the fried tomatoes. Even though the pub was really busy, the food came quickly, and we were full for hours.
