We had a fantastic stay at Dao by Dorsett North London and would highly recommend it. A little difficult to locate at first because it is actually inside the Hornsey town Hall! However, the service was excellent from start to finish – all of the staff were friendly, welcoming, and attentive. The room was spacious, spotlessly clean, and had everything we needed, including a hob, dishwasher, fridge, and other kitchen essentials, making it feel like a home away from home. The bed was very comfortable with fresh, clean bedding, and the bathroom was decent sized, immaculate, and stocked with lovely Elemis toiletries. Everything exceeded our expectations, and we wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. A wonderful place to stay in North London! Thank you.

A sensational location - in the middle of the Hornsey Town Hall, one of my favourite buildings in London. The room was absolutely spotless, and featured remarkable art deco features. The staff were brilliant too - I’d definitely stay again!

Not the best experience. Cool, art deco building and room, but… No signage for the hotel at all. It’s within the town hall. Bad directions for parking. I had 2 horrible bites, which may be nothing to do with the hotel, of course. It seems like the hotel is an afterthought, when the town hall is not fully in use. Felt like a room in an office block.

Large room with separate living room / kitchenette area. All clean. All staff we saw were very friendly and any questions / needs where sorted straight away. Location great with lots of cafes close. Went to Cubes for breakfast which was delicious. Bus stops outside hotel, which we used for Finsbury park station (9mins) and Alexander palace bus just around the corner. Will def stay here again when going to Alexander palace for concerts.

Quiet location. Fast check-in but £50 security deposit taken. Comfortable beds. Spongey pillows. Had a twin room which looked like a double but beds pushed apart. One was pushed too far and had a light handgun down over it which was easy to knock. Dirty coffee cup left in cupboard. Someone else's water left in the fridge. No instructions on how to use coffee machine. Not asked how our stay was on check-out. Good pubs and restaurants nearby with Tesco and Sainsbury across the road.

The new notel in the Town Hall is actually quite nice. The rooms are comfortable, clean, and modern. The staff, personally, were very friendly. However, I have two major complaints. We stayed for 6 days. They never once voluntarily came to clean the room. I asked on day three that someone come to clean up and empty the garbage, change towels, etc. They said they were busy that day and the best they could do was provide fresh towels. They did. But left the garbage and so on. Second, when arriving, I asked by email for an early chech in ... like at 13:00 for a 15:00 normal check in. The response email said they would charge GBP10/hr for early check in! I have never heard of this before. Yes, if you arrive really early and sleep, I have been charged a half day or something. But a couple hours? Bizarre. In the end, they didn't charge but this should not be a policy. I think management needs to review its customer service guidelines as this is not a staff but a management problem.

I rarely leave negative reviews, but my experience at this hotel was disappointing. One of the reasons I booked this property instead of an Airbnb was the expectation of basic hotel amenities and comfort. Unfortunately, the hotel advertised having a bar and restaurant, but neither was actually available during my stay. This felt misleading from the start. The biggest issue, however, was the air conditioning. On the day I checked in, I was told the AC was not working throughout the hotel and would be fixed the following day (Saturday). When Saturday came, I was told it could not be repaired until Monday because it was the weekend. By Monday, the AC was still not working. As a result, I spent four nights sweating through uncomfortable nights in my room. What made the situation even more frustrating was that when I checked out, the staff member at the front desk claimed he was unaware of any air conditioning issues at all. When I asked what could be done to compensate for the inconvenience, the answer was essentially nothing. There was no apology that matched the situation and no attempt to make things right.

Väldigt trevligt, nyrenoverat hotell som ligger i det gamla art deco rådhuset! Nära till buss för att ta sig till centrala London ca 20 min. Stort fint lägenhets rum med kylskåp,spis,spisfläkt och utrustning för att laga mat om man vill. Safty box, fön, strykmaskin och väldigt sköna badrockar. 2 "tjejer" från Sverige
