Scene

Minimalist decor, from the spacious lobby bar to the scenic rooftop Skylounge

The scene at the Doubletree is set by its strong architectural elements. The domed central courtyard with its geometric lines offers a memorable entrance to the hotel. Abundant natural light contrasts metal and concrete structural elements, achieving balance throughout the hotel's common areas and rooms.SkyLounge, a rooftop bar with sweeping views over East London, attracts visitors and locals alike. The same foundation of design, including generous open spaces and clean lines, continues beyond the SkyLounge and into the City Cafe, which provides meals all day long.During the morning, the breakfast scene here can be frantic as business people rush out the door, but in the evenings, a more leisurely atmosphere settles in as guests and locals arrive for cocktails and glasses of wine.
