About Citadines Islington
A kitchen in every room sets Citadines Islington apart from the average London hotel stay. This aparthotel on Shelley Place gives guests self-catering apartments with kitchenettes, en-suite bathrooms and air conditioning, making it a practical base for longer visits or anyone who prefers to cook rather than eat out every night.
Rooms are described as spacious and well kept, and the building includes a laundry service, lift access, and a gym for guests keen to keep up a routine while travelling. Breakfast is available on-site, and there's a spa and sauna for slower mornings. Family rooms and pet-friendly policies make it flexible for different types of trips, and business services are on hand for those working during their stay.
Islington's transport links put central London within easy reach, and the surrounding streets offer restaurants, pubs and markets to explore. Staff are consistently noted as helpful and accommodating, which smooths over the practical side of a stay built around independence and self-sufficiency rather than full hotel service.
What guests say
Absolutely amazing hotel. The room was spacious, peaceful, and had everything we needed. The bed was super soft and comfortable, and the air conditioning was ice cold — honestly a lifesaver during the hot weather. The location is perfect, right in the heart of Islington. Only around a 30-minute walk to Emirates Stadium. There are tons of food options nearby, so many great restaurants, and several convenience stores around the area too. Easy access from multiple sides, which made getting around really convenient. It’s definitely not cheap, but honestly worth every penny for the comfort, location, and overall experience.

We stayed here for 2 nights to be close to the Arsenal parade and it was definitely the best decision we made. The rooms are very spacious with a small kitchen. There's a Sainsbury's a couple minutes away making it easy to get waters, snacks, and any food you need if you decide to cook. There are a bunch of local restaurants, wine bars, pubs, and you get a sense of being a part of a community, while being in London. If you're going to an Arsenal game, you can walk to the Emirates in about 20 minutes. The Angel tube station and the Highbury & Islington station are about a 10 minute walk, which isn't bad all and there are a bunch of bus stops nearby as well, making it very easily connected to the rest of London. Because it's an aparthotel, they don't offer room cleaning if you're staying for a short period, which wasn't an issue for us since we were only staying 2 nights. We'll definitely be back when we return for an Arsenal game.

Terrific service from Rico!! Perfect location. Easy access to transportation and restaurants. Nice breakfast. Clean nice hotel. Word of caution: difficult for taxi/Uber to locate hotel (use Google Maps). Gated security.

Clean, comfortable, and convenient. Close to restaurants, markets, and public transport. The staff was friendly and accommodating. The only slight negative was that our room wasn't made up during the three nights we were there. Ran out of clean linens on the last day.
