I don't agree with reviewers who say the rooms smell and the hotel isn't clean. It's a typical Holiday Inn express, rooms and showers clean, service efficient, great location for central London - only a 30 minute walk to Buckingham Palace. Only comment would be that it is a little pricey though not over pricey. Some of the boutique hotels... More

We opened the door to our room to be created with a slightly musty smell, which I put down to closed windows (should know better). The best thing I could say about this room was its size. A family of four it was great. The bathroom was OK, did the job. The room had a patch of damp on the... More

Breakfast was good but....

Good value, very friendly staff, old fashioned building, but clean and a budget price.I would recommend the area though, its a mixture of residential and a much smaller percentage of tourists so it has much more character than more so called popular areas of the city and someone from overseas might well get a better feel for England.

We were greeted upon arrival and went to our room practically straight away. The room was small, but comfortable and very clean. Breakfast was great, although they run out of the good stuff (i.e. sausages, eggs... More

Stayed 2 nights when we made an unexpected stop in London. We stayed the first week of Apr. 2012 and we did need the portable fan provided to keep the room cool. Yes, the breakfast was pretty basic but it was adequate. The staff were extremely helpful and I loved the area! Plenty of restaurants and shops five mins from... More

Do you like the sound of cars whizzing by as you try to sleep? Do you relish the feeling of being cooked in an oven? Do you enjoy eating your breakfast in a basement without cutlery? Well then don't delay and book a room at this hilariously bad hotel. Seriously though, the only way anyone could stay here is if... More

room 121 It seamed like none stop water noise from the bathroom and at times I was woken up startled by what sounded like a FOG HORN when someone flushed the toilet up stairs and not exaggerating! it was so loud it felt like the room was shaking!

Stayed 2 nights booked via work, reception and staff were fine, room was very very hot and no air con ! On the top floor so good views of Big Ben and the London Eye over the other roof tops. No evening meals on offer and breakfast was a very odd affair, Had a power cut on the second night... More
