Staff very pleasant, friendly and helpfull. Family room small but adequate and it was well maintained. Breakfast was very reasonably priced and was good. There was no parking at this hotel but was provided with parking just round the corner at their sister hotel. On the whole a nice hotel that I would definitely stay at again if in the area.

Hotel is located a very short walk from Ilford station which affords a quick and easy access to Central London on Elizabeth Line. Plenty of shops, cafes and restaurant around plus the hotel has one in the foyer Lovely, attentive staff. Nothing is too much to ask. Had my breakfast freshly cooked to order which was a nice touch. perfect. Will definitely return.

Avoid if you are traveling by car

We arrived to find the Hotel on a busy London road with no place for vehicles to stop for a few hundred yards at least. I double parked at risk in order to run in and ask where their parking is, I was directed to a sister property a couple of blocks away. I arrived there to find no parking either but an employee moved their vehicle so that we could park. I had emailed prior to my arrival and was reassured that there would be a parking space. The hotel was clean and in good condition. Our room was hot so we opened our windows for some fresh air. We had a flight early next am so went to bed at 930pm for a 445am wake up. We listened to the people in the next building talking and yelling till about midnight along with the tv in the next room. At 430am we had someone walking around upstairs loudly but we were on the top floor, I suspect it might be living quarters for the staff? We slept terrible and it made for an extremely long day today with our travel. In addition the traffic noise was non-stop but we were unable to close our windows due to the room being very hot.

Manager is efficient and fair with dealing with issues. For example, I’d asked for someone to remove a dirty old pair of underwear that was on the landing outside my window which was dealt with swiftly! I was also considering furthering my stay and he explained options clearly. On Expedia it did say “access to a nearby indoor pool” this was not the case and disappointed my 13 year old son somewhat as he loves to swim! I did not like the breakfast I’d brought from the cafe. Enjoyed the fresh orange juice. However the buffet breakfast which I saw in the morning did look nice. I really loved the placement and some of the designs of the mirrors around the hotel. Also, there were other design elements I liked. Overall decent stay. Thanks

My booking made via Expedia was cancelled and I was not notified, but the manager on duty was helpful. However I had to pay a £100 deposit which was not part of my original booking. Lets just say do not expect much from the hotel a lot work needs to be done and the cleanliness is extremely poor, lots of dead bugs in the corners and the room carpet was disgusting.

On arrival i was told there was no parking for my car. When challenged, parking was found at a different location. When i arrived at the hotel to check in i was told to pay £100 deposit, which i was not aware of. At 1:30am the fire alarm went off and again at 7:30am, the fire alarm went off again. This disturbed me and my childrens sleep.

Room was extremely hot, even with a fan and the window open. Toilet wasn't cleaned before checking-in. TV didn’t recognise freeview channels. Other than that, room was in good condition and staff were friendly.

The hotel itself was fine however they claimed they were not able to process our credit card. They insisted on cash which we had to pay then when we reviewed our credit card statement saw that they have also charged our card so we’re scammed for two payments

Worst Receptionist !!

The pictures on hotel.com are misleading; however, the manager is very polite. The extremely rude and ill-mannered Antrim receptionist needs training. His unprofessional and inappropriate behavior was concerning. I wonder what language he understood. The bathroom smelled very bad and was never properly cleaned. The room was not cleaned daily.
