“Stepping into this place feels like discovering a well-kept secret; the Limehouse DLR stop is a short walk, and the gardens offer a pocket of tranquility amid the city bustle. I appreciate the Yurt Café, a distinctive spot for a bite and perhaps some music, and the continental breakfast, with its fresh pastries, sets a pleasant tone for the day. It's a unique stay, focusing on peace and reflection.”
