A new aparthotel in Stratford's East Village, the Adagio London Stratford is an ideal launchpad for exploring East London.

Sun writer Charlie took a look to find out what the room's were like, what there is to do and what else is nearby.

It has underground parking and a place to do laundry in the basement, next to the small but perfectly formed gym.

You can even borrow a toaster or a toastie maker from reception to expand your kitchen repertoire, or pass the time in the bar area with a game of table football.

What is there to do at Adagio London Stratford?

Adagio's real strength is its location. One stop away on the Overground is the hipster hotbed and craft-beer heaven of Hackney Wick, a vibrant labyrinth of low-fi bars, graffitied tap-rooms and copper-piped microbreweries.

It's the polar opposite of Westfield with its big-name brands, shiny boutiques and chain restaurants.

Hackney itself is a couple of stops further on too.

What is there to eat and drink at Adagio London Stratford?

Each apartment has a kitchen if you plan to selfcater and there is no restaurant (although brekkie options are available).

It's worth heading to Westfield for dinner, which has dozens of restaurants and cafes from buttery lobster and fries at Big Easy to sourdough pizzas at Franco Manca.

On a Sunday evening, when the mall shuts, you will need to look further afield.

What are the rooms like at Adagio London Stratford?

Rooms have pristine bathrooms, air-con and absurdly comfortable beds.

The decor is stylishly minimalist – expect wooden furniture and pops of colour.

There are flatscreen TVs in the living room and the bedroom – or direct your attention to the window for some astonishing views of the capital.

How much is Adagio London Stratford?

Apartments start from £80 per night for two or £100 for a party of four. See adagio-city.com.
