The Spotlight on City View Hotel - Roman Road Market

Affordable Comfort Near East London’s Music Scene

Modern and wallet-friendly, City View Hotel - Roman Road Market is a low-key bed and breakfast in East London, just a 15-minute walk from Bow Road Tube Station. Set along the bustling Roman Road Market, this hotel offers free Wi-Fi, flat-screen LCD TVs, and a mix of private and shared bathrooms, ideal for travelers seeking comfort without breaking the bank. With a 24-hour front desk and a cozy shared lounge, it’s a laid-back spot for resting up before or after a big show.

Why Concert-goers love it

Its East London location makes it a great base for nearby venues and easy Tube access to central London’s biggest arenas. Victoria Park—often home to summer festivals—is just a short walk away. The 24-hour reception means no worries about late-night returns, and the 12:00 PM check-out lets you sleep in after a late show. While the area can be lively during the day, the hotel maintains a relatively quiet atmosphere at night—perfect for post-gig recovery.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for budget-friendly beds near the music action
  • Solo travelers on a mission to catch a dream concert
  • Couples combining music with a weekend in London
  • Fans seeking a quieter place to unwind after the encore
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who’d rather spend on tickets than accommodation

Food and Drink Options

Fuel up with a full English breakfast served daily—ideal after a night of dancing. While the hotel itself doesn’t offer late-night dining or room service, there are plenty of takeaways and cafes along Roman Road and nearby Mile End. London’s diverse dining scene is just a short Tube ride away.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel is more of a quiet retreat, you're never far from buzzing nightlife. Shoreditch and Hackney Wick are nearby and packed with live music bars, late-night pubs, and cool cocktail spots. The area’s local vibe means you can find both high-energy and chill places to hang out after the show.

What People Say

Guests love the hotel’s value for money and the friendly staff. Visitors often mention the clean rooms and convenient location for getting around London. Reviewers also appreciate the free Wi-Fi and the option for a hearty breakfast.

Areas for Improvement

Some rooms have shared bathrooms, so be sure to check your booking details. The décor is fairly basic, and while the location is well-connected, it’s not in central London—so allow a little extra travel time to major venues.

The Bottom Line

If you’re looking for a no-frills, budget-friendly stay close to East London’s music venues and public transport, City View Hotel - Roman Road Market delivers the essentials for a stress-free concert trip.

Liked: Very comfy bed, has a fantastic clothes market just outside on some days and plenty of good priced places to eat. Good area as well and close enough to the centre by Uber or a short walk from Mile End tube :)

I would rather choose different...

Liked: The staff was friendly during my stay. The location was okay, considering it took me just 25 minutes to reach the needed destination. The price was affordable for a single room.
Disliked: The whole hotel was largely unhygienic, and most of the time, it was smelly. My bedsheet was also not super clean. After I returned to my country, I asked them many times for an invoice. However, they never gave it to me, and I have no idea why and for what reason? They do not reply to any email.
