Overview

First Impressions

Fun Energetic Oasis in Islington – Sleeps6 isn’t your typical hotel name, but honestly, it sets the right expectations from the start. This four-star property sits right on Upper Street, which means you’re basically in the heart of one of London’s most vibrant neighborhoods. The moment you arrive, you can feel that buzz — there’s something genuinely lively about this corner of Islington that the place seems to capture perfectly.

Location & Neighborhood

Upper Street is where Islington really shows off, and staying here puts you right in the middle of everything that matters. You’ve got the Almeida Theatre practically next door, and those brilliant vintage shops and cafes that make this area so addictive to explore. What I love is how walkable everything is — Angel tube station is close enough that you won’t be dragging luggage for ages, but you’re far enough from the tourist crowds to feel like you’re experiencing real London.

The Space

The apartment itself feels like someone actually thought about how people travel together. Six people can stay here without feeling cramped, which is rare in London properties. The kitchen is properly equipped — I mean, you can actually cook a decent meal here rather than just heat up leftovers. There’s this nice balance between having your own space and still feeling connected to the group, whether you’re spreading out in the living area or retreating to one of the bedrooms.

Daily Life Here

Mornings here have this nice rhythm to them. You can grab coffee from one of the local spots on Upper Street, or actually make it yourself without fighting over a tiny hotel kettle. The room setup works well for different sleep schedules too — early risers can get moving without waking everyone else. What struck me is how the place feels lived-in rather than sterile, which makes those longer stays much more comfortable.

Why Guests Love It

This isn’t about perfection — it’s about that sweet spot between comfort and location that’s hard to find in London. The 7.7 rating makes sense when you consider what you’re getting: proper space for a group, a neighborhood that locals actually enjoy, and enough character to make your stay memorable. You know what really works here? It’s that you can have a proper London experience without feeling like you’re just passing through a hotel lobby every day.

Early hotels booking in London secures West End tickets, rooftop cocktail nights, and small-group afternoon tea sessions.

"Comfortable and clean flat in great location."
Comfortable and clean apartment - our stay was facilitated by the very friendly staff working at the bar below. The bedrooms were very spacious and kitchen area was useful. Great location but please note that this is a busy area surrounded by other bars and restaurants. The price of our stay included an allowance to spend in the bar below and we enjoyed a lunch of assorted small plates, all were excellent.
What could be improved: The approach to the flat, above a bar, was via small corridors. This wasn't a problem for us but may not suit those with mobility issues. The flat is adjacent to a bar terrace so there may be some noise heard in flat when terrace is busy.

"Dangerous and you won’t sleep much."
The location was good and there was plenty of space
What could be improved: It’s very noisy at night and on more than one occasion the fire exit was either locked or blocked with furniture. One day people will die here if they keep obstructing fire exits.

"Cheap cheerful, a little effort could make it quite a bit better."
Location. But walking through busy cafe awkward.
What could be improved: Steep stairs, no hand rail. Poor pillows. Bathroom basin didn’t drain. No soap in the bathroom. Boiler comes on very loudly in the bedroom at 0530!
