I was several times in this hotel and always satisfied. I believe they do renovations so the room was now like new and equiped with large LCD among other. Even the breakfast seems to me better than years ago, very good coffee. Everything clear in the room, soft beds and pillows. No smell. Only problem is the hard water , which is the problem of these areas - one spends years in the shower to wash all the soap off.

Staff was extremely helpful and very friendly. The property is about 4 miles away from the center of London which is a quick Uber or taxi ride away. One drawback to the property is that located behind the hotel is a cement production facility with cement trucks coming in and out during the daytime. It wasn't that big of an issue because they closed down every night, but it is just not a very pleasant view to open your window up to. Nonetheless, we would definitely stay there again

We were very surprised that the room had no window, and when I booked it, I couldn’t find any information about that. After arriving, we wanted to eat something, but it turned out that the selection was very limited. However, the hotel staff were excellent and everything was very clean.

4/10 Poor

One of the less nice Holiday Inn Express I've visited. The bedside lamps did not work, the desk was damaged, the chair was disgusting, there was a stagnant water smell in the bathroom, there was no safe box, the property never replied to my many attempts to to contact them about my reservation, the staff were not terribly pleasant or helpful upon check-in, the hallway doors were incredibly noisy and slammed all day and night, and I had to call reception to get a neighboring room to quiet down in the night.
