Customer service from the reception team was excellent. They helped me to find a parking space for free and we're generally very respectful and polite. The room was clean and had everything we needed. Negatives: Couple of the lights weren't working and the walls were thin so could hear noise from other guests. Parking was very limited but as mentioned, staff were very helpful - make sure you ask for advice at reception before paying for anything on Ringo!

I would give this hotel a passing grade. The location is convenient — only a 3-minute walk to Ilford Station — and the front desk staff are very friendly. However, the building is quite old, and noise travels a lot. You can clearly hear footsteps from the hallway and the room above, so if you’re a light sleeper, this might not be ideal. Housekeeping was also disappointing. They didn’t provide shampoo or soap, even after informing reception, and the bedding wasn’t changed for days — just folded. Garbage was removed, but that was about it. Overall, the stay was okay, but if you can find another hotel in the area for a similar price, I would recommend choosing that instead.

⭐ If I could give 0 stars, I would. Do not book this hotel. The staff are rude and completely unhelpful. I booked through Expedia and selected the pay at the hotel option, as I planned to use a company credit card for payment while working in the area. Within 30 minutes of booking, I noticed a pending charge of £53.10 on my account. Nearly two hours later, another pending charge for the same amount appeared — as I had booked two rooms. I contacted the hotel immediately and was assured the pending payments would be released on the day I checked out. On arrival, I was told the same thing again. Things went downhill quickly from there. • The first room key I was given led to a room still being cleaned. • The second key was for a room that already had someone else’s belongings in it. • The third and final room was so small that a double bed had clearly been crammed into what used to be a single room — the TV was even fixed to a wall facing away from the bed! To make matters worse, many of the residents appeared to be long-term lodgers. The noise was unbearable: shouting, arguing, and even someone screaming down the phone to the DWP about their money. This went on until around 1 a.m., only stopping when they either passed out or finally fell asleep. Just when I thought it couldn’t get worse, the toilet macerator kept switching on randomly throughout the night, making it impossible to rest properly. It’s now been over a week since my stay and my pending payments are still

Great Base

The Best Western at Ilford was a great hub and so close to The Elizabeth Line. There were some great local amenities close by too. The Hotel itself is run down furniture wise in the bedroom we had but I could not fault the cleanliness of the room. It’s a shame no hairdryer was provided or low lighting by way of lamps as our room was described as an executive suite and it was a little cold and damp to start with but did get toasty warm in the end ☺️
