Global Lodge Hotel

Ok for 5 days. So not ok for 5 years. The long-term rooms are basically neglected compared to the short-term ones. The toilets at the side entrance aren't cleaned and alarms go off at weird times at night. The walls are far too thin. My partner's mail regularly goes missing and someone destroyed his laundry.

Reasonably cheap (would say extremely good value if included at least a continental breakfast). Has a look of a typically cheap hotel/hostel though room quite clean with linen and towels. Can handle a communal toilet but you'd think they'd put an air freshener spray. Biggest aspect of this place is Kingsland Road and how noisy it is so one or two nights stay alright but any longer not sure about good sleep (some rowdy people seem to congregate outside maybe because of shop below). 24 hour reception.

It was clean. It's not modern, but it was clean. For the single rooms, there are shared toilets, I saw about three, all clean and refurbished. There are showers in your room. I stayed in a family room which had its own private facilities. I put the sign on the door to be serviced and came back to a lovely freshly cleaned room. 24hr reception, close to EVERYTHING !

Very clean and cozy room with great customer service. Everyone who worked here was very nice and helpful. Also location is pretty decent because there’s a bus/metro station right by the hotel. Would definitely book another room here!!

If you just want a place to sleep then this place is good enough. Otherwise I would stay away. The shower gets cold and hot interchangeably. Very loud since the hotel sits right next to a busy street and cars are ongoing all night long! Do yourself a favor and book a decent hotel for a goodnight sleep.

I am sitting here at 1:45am, in room 106 of this hotel, unable to sleep due to the continuous noise from the bar below. I have just been to ask the person at the desk what there is to be done about this and he shrugged and said the hotel is full and it is noisy because it is the weekend. He suggested that the noise might subside in an hour or so. I understand about noise at weekends. What I don't understand is how they can sell a room under those circumstances, knowing that it will be unfit for purpose. To be clear: there is no way anyone could have a restful night's sleep in this room on this

I'd say terrible lodge rather than global lodge. Worst hotel ever. No breakfast, no toilet in the single room. Shower broken no water pressure, always getting cold. You can choose between outstanding noise all night long on the main street side or bad kitchen smell from the restaurant beyond and three big ventilators running 24 hours non stop on the other side of the hotel (as loud as a turbine). I presented the bad smell to the chambermaid and she really asked me at 10 a.m. whether I had some alcoholic drinks already. Unbelievable. The only advantage is, that the global lodge is absolutely clean

Great location, well connected and with lots of restaurants and bakeries at cheap price. Room was spacious and clean with good free WiFi and mini-fridge with free snacks. Helpful and kind staff.

Might be a bit loud for some due to being on main street, there's double glazing nonetheless. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Plenty of cafés and restaurants

Working away for a couple of days and our boss booked this as our digs. Ok first impression from outside, bit run down with flashing light sign saying 'global hotel' reminded me of something out of an American movie. Once inside though the front of house was helpful and showed us to our room and the room was excellent. Comfiest bed ever, nice layout, clean, fridge with snacks and drinks in, lovely bathroom with a drench shower. Excellent place, classic example of don't judge a book by its cover
