Batty Langley's
With the name Batty Langley, you’re destined for great things; the same is true of Batty Langley’s hotel, which delivers Georgian fun and frolics in London’s fashionable Spitalfields. Rewind a few centuries, minus the scabies and scrofula, at this witty and eccentric hideaway, whose bedrooms and bathrooms hint at a healthy sense of humour. Days here begin with bacon-stuffed sandwiches or smoked-salmon bagels – best enjoyed in bed – and end with a civilised tipple or two in one of the lounges. Batty is no one-hit wonder: its esteemed siblings include Hazlitt’s in Soho and Clerkenwell-favourite, the Rookery.
Batty Langley’s enjoys a prime Spitalfields perch in east London, a short stroll from arterial Liverpool Street Station and fashion-scene Shoreditch.

Heavy silk curtains dress the windows of these 30sq m rooms, which have either a Georgian four-poster or a 17th-century carved oak bed. The bathroom is well worth spending time in, thanks to its free-standing roll-top bath and walk-in shower with dinner-plate-sized brass shower head.

Not Available
Batty Langley
Bed down like Batty in this elegant room, whose lures include a four-poster bed and a stylish terrace with plenty of room to sit out and entertain. Batty would have loved the concealed flatscreen TV with media hub and Apple TV; there’s also a desk, well-stocked minibar and a stash of Land and Water bath products. Batty’s bathroom is a tempting space, thanks to its restored period plumbing fixtures and fittings, walk-in shower and roll-top bath.
from £632
Junior Suite
These Junior Suites punch above their weight, thanks to lashings of space (40sq m), antique furniture, characterful artworks and blissfully comfortable beds. Each suite has a separate living area with a sofa bed, desk, flatscreen TV with media hub and Apple TV, well-stocked minibar and luxurious Land and Water bath products. These suites also boast a splendid bathroom: highlights include the vintage roll-top bath, walk-in shower and throne loo. The Peter Merzean suite’s bathroom has an antique ceramic bath tub with Carrara marble casing; the other suites are graced with equally impressive fittings and furniture.
from £766
Kitty Fisher Suite
Appropriately, Kitty’s boudoir has an extravagant vintage four-poster. This 36sq m room also has a small balcony, plus a separate sitting room with a sofa bed. The flatscreen TV with media hub and Apple TV is discreetly tucked away; the room also has a desk, a well-stocked minibar, Land and Water bath products and free WiFi. Then there’s the bathroom, where a genuine Victorian canopy bathing machine awaits...
from £888
Earl of Bolingbroke Suite
Lord it over London like an earl in this aristocratic 66sq m suite, which sprawls across two levels and boasts a large, sunny terrace. The enormous canopy bed was built for a bishop (sadly we don’t have enough space here to tell you its rather naughty story). Up-to-date fittings include a concealed flatscreen TV with media hub and Apple TV. The suite has a desk, well-stocked minibar and Land and Water bath products. The marble bath in the bedroom is a Tuscan antique; there’s also a bathroom with a walk-in shower.
