Boutique hotel above a pub in East London with a rooftop greenhouse
Rooftop Greenhouse & Sustainability
The Culpeper Bedrooms operates a rooftop greenhouse that supplies herbs and produce for its restaurant. The hotel focuses on sustainability and locally sourced ingredients, with menus changing to reflect seasonal availability. An artisan beverage program complements the dining, with options sourced from local producers.
Accommodations & Character
Each of the 3 bedrooms occupies the third floor of a historic building, accessed by two flights of stairs with no elevator. Rooms feature private bathrooms, city views, and original elements such as bricked-up fireplaces. The decor blends historical character with locally inspired touches, avoiding standard hotel uniformity.
Dining & Pub Experience
The ground-floor pub serves British and French cuisines in a family-friendly setting, with vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free breakfast options available. Guests receive a complimentary welcome drink upon arrival and a 10% discount on food and drinks at the pub during their stay. Breakfast is served at the sister hotel, The Buxton, located a 2-minute walk away, with a consistent menu including granola, pastries, cold meats, and a full coffee menu.
Location & Transport
The Culpeper Bedrooms is a 2-minute walk from Liverpool Street Underground Station, providing direct access to central London and Heathrow within an hour. The hotel sits on the edge of Whitechapel and Shoreditch, a 15-minute walk from Brick Lane's Sunday vintage markets and food stalls. Nearby attractions include the Tower of London, Sky Garden, and London Bridge, all within walking distance or a short tube ride.

Luggage storage is available before check-in (from 11am) and after checkout (11am). Check-in hours are 3pm-10pm Monday through Saturday, and 3pm-8pm on Sunday. The hotel is dog-friendly, with dogs allowed in the pub and bedrooms, and offers free Wi-Fi throughout the property.
