Excellent place to stay. I went to London for meetings and work and I really liked this place. Very comfortable place, room and bed, and reasonable prices which is much appreciated. There is a fridge available in each room and it was really quiet, I slept really well. There are 3 Wi-Fi connections, it was great to work remotely. Additionally the location is well connected with the Metro line, I will definitely come back again. Congratulations!
Amazing stay with them along with my family we booked 2 rooms for 3 days an I am absolutely loving our stay with them the hotel is quite along with beautiful views as well love it
Excellent hotel. You don’t really need much. Good price and free English buffet breakfast. What more could you ask for. I saw the reviews but I wanted to see it for myself and honestly it was fine. It’s a little out dated but it’s reasonable for the price staff are always helpful and available as I had some issues with my room key. Overall definitely will be back.

Usually I don't leave reviews, but in this case I must as our stay over at the hotel has surpassed our expectations. Despite all the other reviews being relatively harsh our stay (2 adults 1 child) had been phenomenal. All you would require in a simple hotel will be provided here (comfortable beds, bath towels, breakfast etc.). Our room only had three minor issues: No toilet lock (shouldn't be an issue if your staying with people you trust), carpet was ripped a little (they duct taped it and honestly you don't notice it after a while), no shower head holder (because we had to use the other shower head, yes they had two in our bathroom, literally no issue holding it by hand). This hotel is also only a 10 minute walk away from the elizabeth line station, allowing you to head west straight into London within 30 minutes. Staff had been incredible and always very friendly. Room service working every single day, and had always been super friendly. Keycard for the room needs to be charged everyday as well since the room service people get access by using another charged card (if your not inside your room already). Literally the most convenient hotel, as you also have bus stops right behind you. Great bang for buck. Good luck on your next stay here as a customer. Wishing the company great success.
