The Spotlight on Mama Shelter London

Stylish, Vibrant Stay in the Heart of East London

Mama Shelter London is a modern and trendy hotel located on Hackney Road, offering a lively atmosphere that's perfect for music fans. With stylish rooms, a buzzing bar, and a large restaurant, it’s a vibrant base just a short walk or bus ride from some of London’s most popular concert venues.

Why Concert-goers love it

With Bethnal Green Tube Station just a 10-15 minute walk away and convenient bus routes right outside, getting to gigs across London is a breeze. The 24-hour reception and multilingual staff make late check-ins easy, and the lively bar is perfect for post-show unwinding. Thanks to good soundproofing, rooms stay relatively quiet even with all the action downstairs.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends who want a fun, social vibe
  • Solo travelers catching a bucket-list concert
  • Couples making a weekend of it
  • Fans looking for a chill space to recover after a show
  • Budget-conscious music fans who still want style and comfort

Food and Drink Options

Late-night cravings are no problem here. The hotel restaurant offers a wide variety of homemade dishes, and you can grab cocktails and snacks at the veranda bar. Room service isn't 24/7, but options run late enough for most post-concert appetites. Plus, the breakfast buffet is perfect for a slow, late-morning start after a big night out.

Nightlife Options

Mama Shelter’s own bar often hosts live DJs and music events, creating a lively vibe without having to leave the hotel. If you’re looking to explore, the hotel's Hackney location puts you close to some of London's coolest bars, clubs, and lounges.

What People Say

Guests love the quirky decor, friendly staff, and fun atmosphere. Many mention the great cocktails and the fact that the hotel feels like a destination in itself. The free WiFi and movies in the rooms are also big pluses for downtime between shows.

Areas for Improvement

The lively vibe might not be for those seeking total peace and quiet. Some guests noted that the walk to the nearest Tube station can feel a bit long after a late night, but the bus stop right outside helps make up for it.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers who want stylish digs, a buzzing vibe, and easy access to London's music scene, Mama Shelter London is a top pick.

John M, London, visiting York Hall London Tue, 14 June 2016

Great location for the boxing at The York Hall. I actually met the boxer from the main event of that evening's show before the fight. The room was great - lovely and clean, with everything you could need for an overnight stay. The bed was 10/10 for comfort and one of the quietest hotels I've stayed in. Can't comment on the breakfast as I had to leave early in the morning, but this is a hotel I will definitely be coming back to. 10/10 all round.

Liked: Everything from the room to the staff and the bar area - a class hotel and a great location for a visit to the York Hall.
Disliked: Nothing at all.

Disliked: disappointing the bar didn't stay open for residents as we got there after 11.00pm with lots of friends after a wedding who where staying there and they closed the bar and we weren't even allowed to sit in the bar area.
