Shoreditch & Old Street

Bars, markets and street art

Old Street · Zone 1
Best for: Nightlife and weekends

Why stay here

Shoreditch is east London's going-out quarter: independent bars, late food, vintage shops and street art between Old Street and Brick Lane. Rooms are usually cheaper than the West End for the same star rating.

It suits a weekend when the evening matters as much as the sights. Liverpool Street is a short walk, so the City and the Elizabeth line are close.

Getting around

Old Street and Shoreditch High Street stations are both a few minutes' walk from most hotels.
Liverpool Street, for the Elizabeth line and trains to Stansted, is about 10 minutes on foot.
Columbia Road flower market runs on Sundays and Spitalfields Market most days.
