One Hundred Shoreditch

"Shoreditch is a feral neighbourhood at the best of times, not least when the sun’s out and everyone’s clambering for any and all outside space. While we can’t promise the rooftop hotel bar at One Hundred Shoreditch won’t get chaotic, it’s a fun, sceney spot for spicy margaritas and taking photos of your white negroni with skyline views. Match your outfit to the pastel pink tiles, skip the forgettable small plates, and let sundowners slip into last orders. Know that the alfresco, heated terrace isn’t bookable and spaces are allocated on a first come, first serve basis. So clock off work early to secure your place." - Heidi Lauth Beasley, Jake Oliver

"On any given weekday, the lobby here is packed with freelancers perched on every couch and at every communal table in the sprawling, lo-fi industrial space. It makes sense that this would be one of the area's main hubs of activity: There's Wi-Fi on tap, a coffee and snack bar, cold-pressed juices out the door at the hotel's own juice and mylk bar, and a small but well-selected menu of breakfast and lunch items from the hotel restaurant, Hoi Polloi. Meanwhile, upstairs, the rooms, designed by Barber & Osgerby's Universal Design Studio, are decked out in vintage furniture with a slightly industrial edge. Slightly spare, they're planned for travelers who plan to spend more time exploring the city than indoors. Photo: Andrew Meredith"
